If you’re looking for a beginner-friendly project that makes a big statement, this plaid fabric hoop wreath is the one.
With nothing more than fabric scraps and an embroidery hoop, you can create a wreath that’s as cheerful as it is inexpensive. The beauty lies in its imperfection, no two knots are the same, and that’s exactly what makes it unique.
Customize yours with flannel for autumn, pastels for spring, or bold solids for a modern twist. Then hang it anywhere you need a pop of texture and a hint of handmade charm.
Step 1: Cut your fabric into strips. You can keep them roughly the same size for consistency, though mixing widths can add texture.
Step 2: Separate your embroidery hoop and use only the outer ring for the wreath base.
Step 3: Take one strip of fabric, fold it in half, and loop it around the hoop, pulling the ends through the fold to create a secure knot.
Step 4: Continue tying strips side by side until the entire hoop is covered. Then push them close together for a fuller look.
Step 5: Adjust the fabric ends so they fan outward evenly, trimming if needed for balance.
Step 6: (Optional) Use hot glue to secure a few knots if the fabric feels too loose.
Step 7: Tie a ribbon or twine at the top to hang your finished wreath on a wall, door, or even a window frame.
Tip: For seasonal charm, tuck in artificial leaves, mini pinecones, or berries between the fabric strips. It instantly makes your wreath festive without much effort.
