Rag wreaths have been done since…well, I don’t know how long. Here’s one I couldn’t resist though! After seeing one similar on Etsy last year, I had to try making my own. It’s simple, quick and inexpensive.
You’ll need:
- ½ to ¾ yd. fleece (your choice of color—I used cream)
- Scrap of coordinating colored fleece
- Wire hanger
- Scissors
- Measuring tape/ruler
Cut fleece into 2″ x 4″ pieces. Stretch your hanger into a circle, then twist the top into a loop so you have a way to hang it.
Begin tying your pieces of fleece onto your hanger.
Make sure to push pieces close together. You want to tie as many on as possible so you get a full looking wreath.
Take your coordinating piece of fleece and make a bow around the top, or be creative and decorate however you wish! This could be part of great table centerpiece.

Fantastic, something else I can do with all that fleece piled up in my stash.
