Coat Hanger Cloth Wreath

By Kim Davis

Are you looking for a way to tie in the colors in your room? Or do you just need to fill in a blank wall? Want a wreath to match your Christmas decorations? This project doesn't take a super creative person to complete. It's inexpensive, too. Your finished project will look professional and give your room that custom decorator look.

Materials:

One wire coat hanger (the thin white ones are easier to work with)
Three to five different coordinating colors of cotton or cotton blend material (total yardage is less than 1/2 of a yard. I just used scraps that I had)
Pliers
Scissors
Ruler

Directions:

First use the pliers to bend the coat hanger into a round shape. The hook on top will be used to hang the wreath.

Then cut the material into strips 2 inches x 7 inches. You'll need 120 of these. You can spray starch and press the material before you cut. It makes it a little easier to handle. The finished product will look a little crisper and it will be easier to dust when it is finished.

Next, tightly tie the strips on the hanger. Twist each strip so the ends are pointing in a slightly different direction than the previous strip. Fluff it a bit, hang it up and you're done!
