How to make a Tulle Tutu Wreath step-by-step

Hello!  This wreath is really fun to make and easy. 

Here is the list of supplies you will need:

Tulle in the colors you choose to use
scissors
embellishments
wreath backing (styrofoam works best)
ribbon
glue gun/glue sticks

Prep:  Cut your strips of tulle in strips (between 6 to 8 inches depending on the base of your wreath)

**TIP:  Use wide tulle, it works the best**



















OK.. Here is the Step-by-Step

Once you have cut your stips, tie them in the pattern that you choose.  In this picture I just used a red and white combination.  I also tied the strips twice to make sure they were secure.

Here is the wreath completed with the ties.


Attach your bow and embellishments.. super easy and fun!  I used a Chrismas ornament in the center of the bow to bring it all together.  Options are endless on this style.

IDEA:  Use blue and white and creat a snowman theamed wreath using this style... Just a thought

IDEA:  Use grich green and white and create a grinch theamed wreath.. :)

**Tip you can use a pool noodle for your wreath to cut cost**


If using a pool noodle, make it into a circle and secure it with tape.

Glue the end of your boas to the top of the wreath and then wrap

Once you have finished wrapping the wreath glue the ends to secure it.  Then you add your embellishments and letter.
