Rag Wreath... with Lights {Tutorial}

Want to make you very own Rag Wreath WITH Lights?!?
Well then, today's your lucky day!


I began with a wire wreath that I hopped in my buggy at Hobby Lobby and wound a white strand of Christmas lights around it...



Then I went into my stash of fabric, tulle and ribbon then gathered all of the reds, greens and whites! 


I cut the fabric into 4-5 inch strips.
The longer the strip the more "poofy" the wreath!
It's totally up to you!




Then I tied the strips onto the wreath using a basic knot like this:



Keep tying and tying and tying and tying....
until it looks like this:





Plug it in and enjoy your new Rag Wreath with LIGHTS!



If you wanted to, you could add ornaments to add a fun element to it!
...but mine will have to wait until next year for that!

Yay for lights on super cute Christmas Wreaths!
