How to Make a Burlap Wreath – Fun and Easy Spring Idea
Creating seasonal wreaths can get expensive. The total cost for my burlap spring wreath was under $7. Last summer I made sure to buy an extra pool noodle for $1, planning ahead for my spring wreath. I bought a roll of burlap ribbon from Hobby Lobby when it was 50% off and one package of eggs with raffia from the $1 area at Target. The flowers and green burlap were from previous projects. I already had the tape and glue gun. Add all that up and it’s in my budget, $7!
I used duct tape to create the circle wreath.
I used tape to hold the burlap and started wrapping. If you overlap the ribbon about half way over itself, you won’t be able to see the pool noodle underneath. I kept wrapping until I ran out of ribbon. This was totally unplanned, but I went with it. I cut 2 strips from some green burlap that I have in my tiny stash of fabric. I used a florist pin to connect the burlap. And I continued my wrapping pattern.
The wreath is completely wrapped. I separated the small pink flowers and used hot glue and florist pins to position the flowers and raffia to create the design that I was going for.
The green burlap created a perfect background, running out of the burlap ribbon was a Happy Accident!
I used 3 eggs, 3 flowers and positioned the pink flowers on both sides of the nest.
I created the top bow with more pieces of the green burlap.
What’s on your door for spring?

No lie – I was just thinking about my spring porch and told myself that I wanted to do a spring version of the wreath Debbie did for winter (I even started a list of what I need) and here you go and come up with yet another one. I can’t keep up with you. Love it – and the shade of green you used.
Cute! My front door is bare at the moment — gah!

I’m all kinds of obsessed with burlap…so this will have to go on my to do list!!!! (Can’t beat that price either!!!)
I love it, Debbie! The splashes of flowers and the nest are beautiful … it puts me even MORE in the mood for Spring!
Debbie, your wreath is precious. Love how you used the green burlap for the bow. About my spring wreath, there isn’t one yet. I’m still searching for a gate decoration.
Thanks,
Helen

Ohhhh. cute! you know I love it. And I saw it on instagram first. LOL :))))
I love the little eggs that is a cute touch. I have been wanting to decorate for Spring here but it is snowing and I don’t think I can mix the two at the moment. Hopefully soon! I do like your wreath for when Spring does arrive up here.
I still have my ice skates/Christmas wreath up. I better get on the move.

Love it! Makes me more ready for some warm spring days!
So sweet. The spring color and simple design is just what I need!
Thanks,
Deb
