Nothing makes my heart pitter-patter more with excitement and joy than a holiday themed DIY. This candy cane wreath, filled to the max with folded fabric squares, was no exception. While it required a good two hours of cutting and pinning, the end result far exceeded my expectations for all things homemade.
To see where I put the wreath (for now) in my house, check out my Facebook here.
Click below for step-by-step instructions.
You'll need:
Styrofoam wreath
350 ball point pins
1 1/2 yards white fabric
3/4 yard red fabric
1/2 yard muslin
scissors
ruler
1. Start by cutting your muslin into long, 5-inch wide strips and wrap it around wreath until covered completely. Secure with pin or drop of glue.
2. Measure and cut both colors into 3-inch squares.
3. Fold each square twice over and secure with pin onto wreath. I filled in one red row, followed by 2 white rows. Repeat until wreath is full. (This takes a while. I suggest a good holiday movie to keep you happy while pinning).
4. Add a bow or looped ribbon for hanging.
