Chicken Wire Wreath

Supplies Needed:

  • Jute Wreath, I got mine from Michael’s
  • Chicken Wire
  • Wire Cutters
  • Fabric Scraps
  • Artificial flowers and leaves, I used burlap leaves from Hobby Lobby
  • Hot Glue Gun & Hot Glue Sticks

Instructions:

This is a simple wreath to make and can also be used as a space to hang notes and lists. I love how it turned out!!

I used a jute wreath and covered it with chicken wire. To do this I cut the chicken wire with wire cutters to be the general shape of a circle with enough excess to wrap around the the edges of the wreath. I squished the excess chicken wire down around the jute wreath. You can use work gloves if your skin is sensitive to the poking of the wire.

I wanted to repurpose fabric scraps in this projects. I weaved the fabric strips around the jute wreath and in between the chicken wire. To secure the fabrics strips I used a hot glue gun. I didn’t have to use a ton of hot glue, just a bit at the beginning and end of each strip. I love how all the different colors of fabric look! You could also pick certain colors of fabric if you wanted the colors to be more coordinated.

I then glued a few artificial flowers on the wreath! I was so excited to use these green flowers!

Hope you give this a try!! I have this wreath hanging inside my entry way and am so excited to hang quotes, notes and cards on it!!
