Halloween Craft: Spooky Door Wreath

October 12, 2011 by 2 Comments

I love the simplicity of this wreath I found over at eighteen25!  I like that the burlap is just one color all the way around. Sometimes when you use a bunch of different colors the wreath gets a little too busy.   Most of all, I love that someone like me, who is sometimes challenged when it comes to crafting, could totally make this wreath and it would come out looking just as good as it does in the picture.  That is my kind of craft!

Here is what you need to make this Halloween Door Wreath:

  • 1 yard of black burlap cut into 1″x16″ strips {i used a rotary cutter, but if you want to prevent most of the loose strands on your wreath, you could use this burlap cutting technique.}
  • 14″ foam wreath ring
  • black paint {i used craft paint, but spray paint would work, too}
  • your SPOoKIEST findings to adorn this fab wreath

Here is the tutorial so you can make your own wreath -> Halloween Wreath Tutorial
