wreath tutorial

step 1

Gluing a jute knot on a wreath frame

Find the end of your twine or just and tie it tightly on the frame. I like to tie it just a little above the seam. Once the twine is tied tight, add a drop of glue on the knot.

step 2

Starting to wrap jute around a wire wreath frame

Pull the jute directly across the wreath frame and start wrapping it around. Pull firmly with each round, do this step slowly. The jute will slip, when this happens just calmly move the strings back to position.

step 3

Jute wrapped around a wreath frame

Wrap the jute for 10 rounds. When you are finished, cut the jute 12 inches from the frame. Hold the frame where you ended your rounds with one hand, with the other hand wrap the end of jute around the frame and tie in a secure knot. Pull tight. Apply a line of glue along the OUTSIDE of jute that is on the frame. Let dry.

step 4

Placement of dried flowers on wreath

Grab your dried flowers. Lay them out to see how you want them in the frame.

step 5

Cut the stems of the dried flowers with you scissors at your desired length. You can cut them all the same lengh OR cut them all at different lengths. This is where your imagination comes in. Do what is pleasing to your eye.

step 6

Weaving a dried flower wreath using tweezers

Using your tweezers, press down the top two strands of jute, slowly pick up the next two strands. Repeat until you are at the end. Twist your tweezers towards you so they lift up the jute. Insert your first dried flower. Lay down the tweezer and gently push the dried flower where you want it.

For the next flower, start by picking up the third and forth strands and repeat every other like you did above. Continue this until you have added as many flowers as you want.

step 7

Cutting dried flower stems

Trim the stems as desired.

step 8

Direction on where to glue dried flowers on a wreath.

Using the craft glue, drop a dot of glue near the top of each flower stem. Using your finger spread the glue down to the bottom of the jute.

Cut a piece of jute approximately 18 inches in length. Tie the jute to the top of the wreath frame in a double knot. Pull the 2 strands together and tie a know neat the top creating a loop. You will use this to hang the wreath. Glue each knot.

Let the glue dry.

Hang in your preferred spot and enjoy.

parting wisdom

A little parting wisdom for you. The best dried flowers for you to use would be flowers that you have dried yourself. My next suggestion would be to look on Etsy for your dried flowers. If you do not find anything there here is a good example of a dried flower bouquet that can be taken apart and used.

Until next time,
