Pennant Wreath

wreath
I wanted something cheery to put on my door for spring.  This is what I came up with.  Wanna make one?
You will need:
  • foam wreath
  • burlap
  • fabric scraps
  • ric rac
  • ribbon
wreath
Take your boring ole’ foam wreath and cover it in strips of burlap (or whatever fabric you want really).  I wanted something that would add lots of texture but keep things simple enough that the pennants would still be the star of the show.

I secured each strip of burlap with a pin.  You could glue it too, I suppose, but I pinned mine because it was fastest/easiest. 
022
Break out your scrap fabric stash. 
031
Cut your pennants.
030
Stitch your pennants together with ric rac. 
sew
Pin them to the wreath.  Again, you could glue them, but this way you can change them out if you like.

You’re done!
