Hey everyone! First I wanted to thank all of you that have stopped by each day to check out the new tutorials I’ve been posting! I also wanted to thank all of you that have pinned these tutorials, blogged about them, as well as tweeted and facebooked about them too! It means the world to me that you’re liking these, honestly!! I hope you all will like today’s tutorial as well! It’s another decoration for your front door! :) Like I said before, I’m really picky about what sorts of decorations go on my front door. THIS one is the one I chose, because it’s my favorite, but I also loved how today’s wreath came out! I ended up sending the yellow Ruffly Wreath to my mom and she loved it. :) So, let’s get started!

Rotary Cutter (you definitely do not want to use scissors, for your hand’s sake)

Ruler

Self Healing Cutting Mat

Wire Wreath Form

3-5 yards of fabric (smaller wreath form, 3 yards. Bigger wreath form, 5 yards)

Below is a picture of the 2 different sizes. The white one was made using the smaller form and the yellow one I made for my mom is made with the larger form.

Cut your fabric into 2″ wide x 9″ long strips

I have no idea what this type of knot is called, but I tried to take clear pictures. First you fold every strip in half. Then, you do this knot all the way around your wreath form on all 4 layers of the wreath. Does that make sense? Here, let me show you…
