Christmas Burlap Wreath

And the wreath parade continues…..This time it is my burlap wreath updated for Christmas.

Christmas Burlap Wreath

In the spirit of re-purposing I used the burlap wreath that I made back in Fall and updated it for the season with some small tweaks. You can see how I updated it for Fall and Halloween.

For this update you’d need;

3 types of Ornaments (4 of each) – I used the ones from my last year’s Christmas Mantel; the big red and gold are similar in size while the third one is smaller.

Piper cleaners – Already had

Red burlap ribbon – Walmart ($3.47, I used it here too.)

Poinsettia Clip-on Ornament – Walmart ($0.97)

The original burlap wreath tutorial is here.

Christmas Burlap Wreath

I stripped the chevron burlap ribbon from my earlier version and reused it on another wreath. 😉 I told ya, I’m on a wreath making spree!

  • String the ornament onto the pipe cleaner.

  • Attach the ornaments to the wreath frame in a group of three. After the first set is tied down in place eyeball the spacing and place the other ornaments (don’t attach to the frame) so that you get an idea of where the next groupings go. In my case, I had added more burlap ribbon to my first version of the wreath because I thought I liked a fuller wreath. Realized after the fact that I preferred the first version over the fuller one but was too lazy to go back to the old one. Anyways that rearrangement left me with a rather thin spot on the wreath (it wasn’t very noticeable earlier because of the chevron ribbon). So if your wreath has uneven spots no worries you can always cover it up with something. That’s where the bow and poinsettia come in.

  • Once you finalize the spacing attach the rest of the ornaments to the frame in groupings of three.
  • The bow is nothing fancy, just tied it in the center with a pipe cleaner and used the same pipe cleaner to attach it to the frame.
  • Clip the poinsettia flower to the pipe cleaner in the center of the bow.

Don’t you just love it when something is so versatile that you can use it over and over by just changing a few things up?

Finally the long overdue post, our new screened in porch reveal. This space has undoubtedly become our favorite room in the house now. To tell you the truth, I was against the idea of ripping apart our good size deck and replacing it with a screened in porch but B insisted that this was the…
