Making a Burlap Wreath

I've had a wire wreath frame hanging in the basement craft area for quite some time.  I had bought one roll of white burlap ribbon 2 1/2" wide a while back on clearance in the fabric section at Wal Mart.  I decided I would use the two items to make a burlap wreath.  I've made several burlap wreaths using wider burlap, but I liked the look of the more narrow ribbon, and the ribbon being wired gives the wreath a much more "finished" appearance.  Of course, I had to purchase more ribbon as one roll only covered about 1/3 of the frame.  It took over 3 rolls to complete the wreath, so I'll be using this one alot.  Generally, I have far less money in the wreaths I make. I used these items  to make this wreath:   source source Begin anywhere on the frame that you wish.  Wrap the end of the ribbon on the innermost wire.  I placed mine near one of the cross wires, and wrapped it around two or three times.  Then flip your wire...
