Summer Wreath

Fabric and Rag Wreathes

I’ve always found joy in fresh flowers and lush greenery, but unfortunately most varieties send my allergies into overdrive! This forced me to get creative when I first looked into creating wreaths, and so I decided that as flowers were out of the question, I would use fabric instead.

• Little did I know that I was stepping into a world of endless possibilities, and the incredible variety of textures and materials on offer sparked a whole new creative journey.
• Fabric is available for all occasions – Halloween, Christmas, Valentines Day, etc – as well as coming in many beautiful combinations of colour.
• I mix and match different fabrics in each wreath, so each and every one is individually designed.
• Lace, ribbon and other embellishments can be added too, adding extra depth and texture.

I use biodegradable straw rings with fabric remnants gathered from family, friends and online. I also make Victorian style rag wreaths, using wire frames and strips of material. Whatever option you choose, my wreathes are completely water-resistant.

I do not use adhesive with the straw ring wreaths, so pieces of material can be removed and you can design your own.
