Instructions

Start with a 10 inch straw wreath. Starting on the backside, wrap some of Maya Road Burlap Trim around the wreath. Overlap by about one-fourth an inch as you go. You can complete this in steps and glue the ends to the back as needed. You will need about five and a half yards of the burlap trim to go around the entire wreath.
Take about 24 inches of the Cloud Paper Twine Cording. Unravel and form a bow. You will want to make a bow that has four loops total and two tails.
Take one of each of the Afternoon Tea Trim flowers (in the light pink and cream). Trim off about 60 percent of the flower until you have formed some small ones.
Take a 24 inch piece of the solid lime green twine cording. Make 8 total loops and then take a 8 inch piece to tie and make a bow. You will have a bow that has 8 loops and 8 tails. The bow should be approximately 3 inches wide.
Take a 4 inch piece of the Grass Paper Twine Cording. Unravel and pinch ends to form a leaf.
Using the photo as a guide, assemble the wreath embellishments as shown. Add flowers first, then bows, feather, leaf, paper twine cording loops, pins and beads.
