Today I am sharing how to make a hazelnut wreath. This has been on my craft bucket list for some time now. Do you have one? If you do let me know what’s on it.

If you are new  to Cloches & Lavender, welcome I am truly happy your are here for a visit. 

By the way, if you enjoy adding natural elements to your home easily, you can see this post HERE.   For an easy quick project you may enjoy this post.

Begin Adding Burlap Ribbon on The Round Form

Step 1

First, begin by buying an 8″ wreath form.  This can be this wreath form or this wreath form. Now for my easy nut wreath project I am using an 8″ wire wreath form. Because its wire wrap the form with burlap ribbon. This is simple to do and takes no time.

Now is a great time to plug the glue gun in to heat up for adding the hazelnuts to the wreath form.

Begin Adding Adhesive to The Bottom of Your Pieces

Step 2

Begin gluing the hazelnuts around by adding glue to the bottom of the nuts. The first row is the most time consuming the rest of this project is simple.

Here is a good time to choose the ribbon to hang your easy rustic wreath for decorating Doing this now will allow for the hazelnut wreath to hang flat. Lay the ribbon in the center spot on the wreath to give you an idea of the space needed. Notice the gap in the photo below.

After adding the first row, continue filling the wreath form with the remaining nuts. Incidentally, adding the rest of the pieces to this project goes very quickly. For this craft project I used 105 hazelnuts.

By the way, after gluing the first row of hazelnuts, this project flies.

Items Needed:

• 8″ wreath form
• hot glue gun and hot glue
• burlap ribbon if using a metal wreath form
• hazelnuts in the shell
• metal skewer or a thin heat resitant tool
• ribbon
• Spanish moss
• scissors

Adding Spanish Moss For A Finished Look

Now, add Spanish moss to the easy wreath craft for a finished look. A small amount of moss is all it takes to fill in the spaces on this project. Cut a small piece with a scissor.

Next, add a tiny amount of hot glue in a section. Using metal skewer or heat resist tool push the Spanish moss in empty spaces. Incidentally, this step goes quickly.

The Spanish moss gives this quick wreath craft a finished look and adds texture as well as another nature element.

Finishing The Simple Project And Adding Silver For Added Elegance

Lastly, I add silver gilding wax to the nut tops to add an extra touch of elegance.

Another option is dry brushing the tops with silver metallic craft paint. This process is quick and adds another layer to this simple craft project. Let dry for an hour. However, if gilding wax is added rub with a lint free rag.

Now hang tis easy nut wreath with ribbon of your choice. I added a dark silver satin ribbon to blend with the gilding on the hazelnuts.

By the way, this wreath idea will look great hanging from and interior, closet door or mirror. Use as a centerpiece with a battery operated candle in the center
