I am fond of the rustic, natural, and old-fashioned look and feel of corn husk wreaths. This easy-to-create corn husk wreath took me 15 minutes to make and the materials cost less than $15!
This quick tutorial only requires three key ingredients and a short amount of time to make.
The Materials
- Corn husk picks. During a recent hunt for pumpkins, I found myself browsing the aisles of Walmart and stumbled upon packages of corn husk picks for .98 cents a package. I scooped up 10 packages with the idea of making a fall inspired wreath.
- Grapeview wreath. I always have a “collection” of grapevine wreaths on hand for DIY projects. Every time I spot one at the thrift store, I bring it home with me. Many time they are disguised under a layer of faux flowers which can easily be pulled out. This grapevine wreath was less than $2.
- Rope, burlap, or ribbon. I used a leftover piece of rope from my DIY rope wrapped lamp bases to add a “hook” to the wreath. It would also be darling to add a thick piece of burlap ribbon or a buffalo check ribbon instead of the rope.
How to Make an Easy Rustic Corn Husk Wreath
Step One: Insert the wire piece of the corn husk pick into the grapevine wreath.
Step Two: Working clockwise, stagger, overlap, and layer each pick to ensure the corn husks neatly disguise the base of the picks.
Step Three: Adjust and shape the corn husk leaves as you go along.
Step Four: Once all the corn husk picks are in place, tie a piece of rope or ribbon around the top of the wreath to make a hook for it to hang.
Step Five: Step back and enjoy your creation! Here is my finished wreath hung over one of the bicycle rims in my entryway. Easy peasy and oh so cute!
