How to Make a Felt Wreath 

Start by gathering all your supplies: felt sheets in various colors, an embroidery hoop (or wreath frame), scissors, and ribbon or twine. Once you’ve got everything ready, separate the embroidery hoop into two rings, and then cut your felt into strips of different widths.

Tie the strips onto the hoop with double knots, pushing them tightly together for a full, fluffy look.

When you’re done, trim any excess, attach your ribbon or twine, and hang your new wreath!

Ingredients

  

• Felt sheets in various colors
• 10" embroidery hoop or a styrofoam wreath frame
• Ribbon or twine

Instructions

 

• Remove any labels from the embroidery hoop or wreath base.
• Loosen the screw on the embroidery hoop and separate the two rings, which can be used to create two wreaths if desired.
• Choose your felt colors, organizing them into a rainbow or your preferred palette.
• Cut the felt into strips of varying widths (skinny and fat pieces work best), approximately 9" long. For a 10" hoop, you’ll need around 100 strips.
• Begin tying felt strips around the hoop, securing them with double knots.
• Use key positions (12, 3, 6, and 9 o’clock) as starting points, and work your way around.
• Push the strips tightly together to create a full, fluffy appearance.
• Trim any uneven ends to give the wreath a polished look. Attach a ribbon or twine to the top for hanging.

Notes

To clean, use a soft, damp cloth to spot clean any dust or dirt. Avoid getting the wreath wet, as felt can lose its shape when wet.

Store your wreath in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keep it in a box or on a hook to maintain its shape and avoid dust buildup.
