making a twine wreath

A wreath can be made from anything.  Greens or grapevines may come to mind first but, with a little creativity, there are so many options.

I recently noticed a beautiful roll of twine in my craft room that wasn’t being used.  With spring on its way, the twine started me thinking about how I may use it with some ‘springlike’ materials.  I pulled some ribbons, dried flowers, and note cards from the shelves and started working on a wreath with the twine as a base.

The photos here are from my first creation.  I love it.  Once I had it completed, it started a flood of ideas for additional creations.

The first wreath is on the small side, so the twine itself is enough to keep the wreath formed.  As I start with larger ones, I will use a thin metal base on the back of the twine.

That bowl of twine has me so inspired!  I looked through all my gift wrap supplies and I have started a whole series of twine-based wreaths!

I hope I have inspired you to use some of your own unused materials in a different way for spring!

Thanks for stopping by!
