Supplies for 1 wreath
1 metal hanger12" X width of burlap (my burlap was about 50" wide)
glue gun
a rotary cutter to make cutting the strips easier
dental floss
Instructions
Cut 3 - 4" X about 50" burlap strips. Sew these three pieces together, so you have one long strip. To gather the burlap, machine zig zag stitch over dental floss. I used red cinnamon flavored floss so it wouldn't show, even though it looks white in the picture. Pull the floss and gather the burlap.
Bend 1 wire hanger into a heart shape.
Adjust gathers to fit around frame, cutting off any extra that isn't needed. Hot glue to wire frame. I used clear fishing line to hang, but a pretty white bow would be nice.
If you want a no sew method, Craftaholics Anonymous gathered the burlap by threading it about every three inches or so right onto the wire Hanger.
