nut wreath

i told you the fall posts were coming!

here's a craft i'm DYING to try. i'm thinking this weekend will be full of fall craftiness.


Tools and Materials
Hot-glue gun
2 bags (1 pound each) walnuts in the shell
24-inch flat wooden wreath form
1 bag (1 pound) each almonds, hazelnuts, and pecans in the shell
Wide ribbon

Nut Wreath How-To
Hot-glue walnuts to a 5-inch-long segment of 1 side of wreath form, varying direction of nuts.

Fill spaces between walnuts with the other nuts, hot-gluing them to the form and the walnuts as you work.

Repeat, working in sections, to cover the wreath form completely. Be sure to adhere nuts to inner and outer edges of wreath form to conceal it entirely.

Tie ribbon around wreath.


ta da! if you have any other fall crafts you just love, help a sista out!
