This would also make a fun project for a bridal shower; everyone could go home with a wreath that they made with their own hands!

You will need:

  • A variety of fabrics cut or torn (we used pinking shears for the wreath shown above) into pieces that are approximately 6 inches long and 1 – 1.5 inches wide. You can vary the length and width of the pieces to your liking. You will need about 150 pieces for one wreath
  • Metal coat hanger
  • pliers
  • metal cutters
  • ribbon
  • safety glasses

Bend your coat hanger into a circle.
