DIY Chevron Burlap Wreath

I made this wreath today while the little took his morning nap. Seriously, took less than 30 minutes it was super easy. Best part? It cost less than $10 to make! 



 
What you'll need: 

- Wire Wreath Template -- $2.47 at Walmart
- 2 Rolls of 4 inch Burlap Garland (These are 5 yards each) -- $3.47 each at Walmart
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Start with one loop and secure it to your wire frame- I used floral wire I already had on hand but you could use pipe cleaners or twine. Any of these can be found at your local craft store. Begin pushing loops through the frame (I do 4 or 5 loops through each section because I like my wreath big and full) Be sure to alternate sections, you don't want your wreath to unravel! 
 
Hold the wire frame in one hand, securing the end of the burlap ribbon with that same hand.  With your other hand, begin pushing loops of burlap through the back of the frame, alternating sections and pushing them together as you go.

Continue pushing loops all the way around your frame-we're half way done!
 
 

Once you have loops all around your frame make sure to use some wire to attach the loose end to your frame.
