How to Make a Wheat Wreath -

Excitement is an understatement for how I feel about our first Fall at the farm this year. I’ve been scrolling Pinterest for fall decor inspo since July. The wheat wreath flooded my feed and I instantly fell in love with the natural texture of them. I just love the warmth they bring into any room. My DIY-er kicked in and quickly decided, “I could totally make that for a lot cheaper!” The rest is history!

This post is all about how to make a wheat wreath!

Materials Needed for a Wheat Wreath

Dried Wheat Stalks (100 makes a full 11″ wreath)
Wire Wreath or Hoop Wreath
Floral Wire or String
Scissors
Snips

How to Make a Wheat Wreath

Clip Wire Wreath

Using snips or wire cutters, separate all four rings from the form
- Using one ring vs the full form requires less stems to create a full wreath
- Bonus: Now you can create 3 more wreaths using 1 form.. like this hoop wreath
I used the second smallest ring (11″) and 100 stalks covered the ring perfectly

Tie Stalks Together

Divide the bundle into groups of 3
Tie or wire them together

Trim the Stems

Remove most of the stem leaving about three inches to work with

Tie Bundles to Wreath

String

Once you know the length of string you need, cut several pieces to make your process faster
lay a piece of string in a sideways U (see first image)
Lay the ring on top of the string and then the wheat bundle
Thread both ends of the string through the loop and tighten
Wrap the string around the bundle and ring a few times and tie in a double knot
Trim off excess string

Floral Wire

Lay the ring and a wheat bundle on top of the wire
Wrap the wire around the wheat and ring as tight as possible a few times
Twist both ends of wire together
Trim off excess wire

Repeat

Repeat tying process until the ring is full
I spaced my bundles about 1.5″ to 2″ apart
