Rag Wreath
Rag Wreath
This is a rag wreath and is so simple to make! Take a hanger, leave the hook on, and shape the hanger into a circle. Cut your material into 1x6 inch strips. Simply tie the strips onto the hanger sliding them tightly together as you go. When you cannot squeeze any more fabric strips onto the hanger you are almost done! Fluff the strips to make the wreath full. For the hook, take a half inch strip of fabric, about 16 inches long and tie one end to the hook and wind the rest around the hook to cover it and fabric glue the end to stay put. Top off with ribbons or any other embellishment you wish and voila!

It's beautiful and so easy. I cut the strips with a point at one end. I also thought of buying some cloth rope and doing same thing for a garland.
Thank you for sharing your inspiration.

With the remnant pieces I bought she has made three and I think she has just enough for a fourth. She is a machine. She loves this. Thank you so much! She is in a small Girl Scout Troop and she is making one for all the girls. You can't beat the price! Also, it really satisfies her 10 year old girl need for something to do.

Tell her I am so proud of her too! Just be sure to tighten the strips as she goes to make it fluffy! Love the colors!

Oh wow, love the colors and tell her I am so proud of her too! Just be sure she pushes the strips tightly together so it will come out fluffy!

Thank you again so much for this idea. My 10 year old is loving making this for her friend for her room as a birthday present. I am sure the fabric I bought will stretch to make 2 of these. I have included a photo of her 1/2 completed wreath she wanted me to share! (She is so proud.)

***SAVINGS ALERT***
My daughter decided she wanted to make one of these for her friend for her birthday. I went to JoAnne's and looked in the fabric remnant section first. I found one girly printed fleece and three tie-in fleece colors.

Fleece is 50% off this week. It applied to the remnants too!!! So I got the four for $3.60. So make sure to check the remnant section first for marked down fleece fabric this week and get it for 1/2 off.

I did not know the discount applied to these. I was pleasantly surprised.

You can also do the same to make a swag, just use a leather strip or combine 2 straightened hangers. So simple!

You can also do the same to make a swag, just use a leather strip or if you want it more sturdy, straighten out the hanger and attach another straightened hanger to it!
