Chicken Wire Wreath Tutorial (with Removable Magnetic Cutout)!
Chicken Wire Wreath Tutorial (with Removable Magnetic Cutout)!
We're almost done with our unofficial new holiday, Wreath Week, so let's wrap it up with this really easy wreath that you can switch up whenever you need it!
What You'll Need:
What I utilized is as follows:
- 14" wreath shape with chicken wire hoop
- Stay sometimes, cut in wood
- Two-inch felt circle
- preserved leaf of lemon
- Three-inch tea rose
- Warm adhesive
- tiny magnets
- E6000
Attach the Leaves!
Position your felt circle behind the wreath. Attach the first leaf using hot glue applied to the front! After completing your second leaf in the same manner, adhere the blossom to the middle.
Keep It Simple, or Go Big!
I chose a straightforward design for this wreath, but feel free to go wild! If you plan to use a lot of greenery, you can hot glue the flowers to the greenery after attaching them with twine or binding wire. You can just cut a huge piece of felt to finish the back if you are covering a larger area.
Attach Magnets to Your Cutout!
Put a small amount of E6000 adhesive on your magnet and position it behind your cutout. In order to make sure I have an additional contact point on the chicken wire, I like to connect at least two magnets. I would have generally looked for smaller magnets, but at the time, I had nothing else.
It takes roughly a day for E6000 to completely dry, but you want a firm grip!
Pop the Cutout Onto the Wreath, and Voila!
You can arrange the cutout as you'd like because it is attached to magnets! Additionally, you can swap out the sayings to correspond with the seasons and holidays.
