You Will Need (4 things)

  • Fabric Scissors
  • Fabric
  • Safety Pin(s)
  • Coat hanger

Steps (9 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Gather some materials, fabric flowers, wire hanger, scissors ect.

  2. 2

    I used an old man's shirt and cut long strips of fabric and then cut them into 4 inch pieces.

  3. 3

    You're going to want to shape your hanger into a circle. Originally I was going to use the hook for mine but changed my mind later.

  4. 4

    I took the hook apart and taped it together using electric tape.

  5. 5

    Next I tied my pieces of fabric to the wreath. One thing I love about the men's shirt is the buttons and button holes. I left those on to add visual interest.

  6. 6

    Once my wreath was full it was time to decide how to decorate my wreath.

  7. 7

    I wanted to use some warm fabric flowers I made but I wanted to be able to change them out so instead of hot gluing them or sewing them on, I used large safety pins that I pined around the wire.

  8. 8

    Build up around your wreath however you want.

  9. 9

    To hang my wreath, I tied a thick satin ribbon around the top and finished it off with a bow.
