I love the visual too Leigh, So glad to see you! I have made a couple of these wreaths. Did one on a round straw and one on a heart shaped. I don't have any pictures of them to share with you, but they are really easy to do.

I just cut my material into 4" squares, used a pencil positioned in the center of the square , pull material up over pencil, and dipped the end into some glue, and then poke them into the wreath! I had a styrofoam bowl that I poured glue in to dip the end of the pencils in. I started on the inside of the wreath and worked my way out. depending on the fullness you want , I don't remember how many squares I cut, but I know it was a lot of them, because I liked the full look.

Kinda do them in rows. or sections, which ever is easiest for you. and when you are done, you can always split your section and add more to where you think you need it. They are fun, and really aren't that hard to do. Hope this was some help. Let us know how you made out, and if you can, please feel free to share a picture with us! Hope to see you areound the boards. My name is Rhonda, and I host a board here also. Come on over for chit chatting.
