Wire Wreath Frame Hand-tied
How many wire wreath frames do you have hanging in your craft area? Let’s take one down, spin some rope around it and finish at least one wreath.
This project is a way to use up scrap pieces of rope, yarn, clothesline, and any other stringy stuff. Well, except silly string. That won’t work.
This wire wreath has six sections. Not that it matters, but they might help you know how much stringy stuff you’ll need.
Supplies
- Wire wreath frame
- Varies scraps of strings {I used rope, thick yarn, cotton clothesline, and twine.}
- Hot glue gun with glue sticks
Directions for wire wreath frame
There are four circles of wire on the wreath frame. I started with the clothesline and wove over the under the wire circles.
Another area I wove the same with rope. Notice, I wasn’t concerned about the wires peeking through the frame. But if it bothers you, just add more and squish together more. 😉
Then, using more clothesline, I wove it between two wires. This leads the line up from the edge and down between two center wires.
Another area has a braided clothesline. I made one long braid with three pieces. Then, wrapped around the wreath.
For the yarn, I wrapped it over the end wires, then over the top of the two center wires.
On Facebook, I shared this on a live video. Then I had a “lightbulb going on” moment and added paintbrushes. Fun and funky wreath for the craft room.
After the live video, I had another “lightbulb going on” moment and made a little sign. Perfect!
This project is perfect for TV watching.
These are a few more TV watching DIY projects.
Stick hangers to hang your “fancy” clothes. 😉

Now, I need more ideas for those 23 other wire wreath frames!

Love this idea! Super cute!
Oh I just got an idea to tie rags on the wire wreath. Cut up Jean’s would be a cool wreath. With red ribbon for the 4th
What a great idea!
Are you just wrapping stuff or are you tying first. Is there a video I’m confused.
I wrapped and wove twine and cording into a wire wreath. On one section, I braided cords first. Then wrapped the braids around the wire. I do several DIY projects on Live video here >>https://www.facebook.com/CountryDesignStyle/
I’ll make a live video to show and sharing the video on the post in the next week.
Love it! I see a nautical rope wreath in the making!
Jeanette, that is just gorgeous! I may have to try one this weekend if I can locate the wire wreaths!
