Decorate Your Fireplace With This Gorgeous Purple & White Easter Wreath – How To Make One

Purple & White Easter / Spring Wreath – How To Make One – I just love MommyDecorates.com and how our blog helps inspire our readers to decorate their homes for the seasons. Well, I am so excited to share with you how to make a purple & white Easter burlap wreath today for Easter.

In this picture, Mary used an extra large 36 inch styrofoam wreath base (styrofoam wreath circle). You can use any size if you want to, but you will need to adjust the size of ribbon. Mary cut the burlap – Using 6 inch natural wired purple & white burlap ribbon– Cut 20 inch individual pieces to form bows.

Mary secured the purple & white burlap ribbon with corsage pins (Corsage pins were found in craft stores in the sewing section). Mary wrapped the base using 4 inch wired purple & white burlap ribbon (Find purple & white burlap ribbon at your local craft store or florist).
