Leaf Wreath – ARTBAR

Leaf Wreath – ARTBAR

I took a wander in our regional park this week on the most perfect fall working day. Temps had been lower 60’s, sky was vibrant blue, there was a slight breeze and just the scent of autumn in the air. The trees have been turning for two months now but on this working day, with the breeze, leaves were being fluttering to the ground all around me.

I introduced a bag with me to obtain leaves, as a person does on ideal drop days, and I gathered so quite a few that it felt like it weighed a handful of lbs .. I instantly thought of the best idea for my giant bag of leaves…. a leaf wreath made with a wire hanger!

Going on a nature walk to collect leaves for a wreath.

I 1st noticed this leaf wreath plan a long time in the past on my pal Gina’s website, Willowday. I realized it demanded a ton of leaves considering the fact that they are stacked, and I’m normally someone who only collects what I can hold, so I have not experienced a chance to deliver residence a massive leaf haul till now!

Collecting a rainbow of leaves from the ground

How to make a leaf wreath with a wire hanger:

1. Accumulate your leaves and organize them by color. I have to have gathered a number of hundred leaves at minimum, but truth be advised I *still* didn’t have enough. I experienced to cut my hanger a tiny shorter. So err on the facet of far too much!

2. Use needle nose pliers to untwist the major of the wire hanger. Use your own arms to bend out the kinks, then to bend it into a circle. To minimize the wire hanger (which you will possibly have to do unless of course you acquired thousands of leaves!), just bend back again and forth a few instances in a single location and it will break. You can do this by hand or with the pliers. (You can also use floral wire, like this vine-lined variety, instead of a hanger.)

3. Commence stacking and threading the leaves on to the wire hanger. It’s very quick to do, you can do a bunch at a time.

6. When you are completed threading, use the pliers to bend the conclusion into a very little loop, then hook it at the major to secure the ring.

This wreath will get started to dry up really quickly and the colors will fade. If you want the shade to very last, attempt dipping the leaves in beeswax initial!
