Have you always dreamed of adding a touch of rustic charm to your home? A homemade wreath made from bark slices is the perfect way to bring the simple beauty of nature into your home. These easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions will show you how to create an impressive wreath full of natural elements with minimal effort. Let yourself be inspired and transform your home into a little oasis of well-being - ideal for yourself or as a special gift!

Step 1: Lay the basic wreath

Start by arranging the individual bark slices into a circle. If you are unsure how to form a perfect circle, simply print out a stencil or find a round object, such as a plate, around which you can place the slices.

Step 2: Prepare the suspension

Choose one of the bark slices and drill a small hole in it. This will be used later to hang your wreath. Make sure that the hole is large enough to thread a string through, but not so large that it affects the stability of the slice.

Step 3: Create the structure

Now it's time for the second and third layer. Glue two more layers of bark slices staggered on top of the circle you have already laid. This offset ensures a harmonious and even appearance. Important: Allow the glue to harden completely before moving on to the next step.

Step 4: Attach the pampas grass

Cut the pampas grass to the desired length and attach it to the wreath using hot glue.

Step 5: Add the jute ribbon-bow

Cut a piece of from jute ribbon with wire edge and form a stylish bow. To give your bow that certain something, tie a piece of jute cord in the middle. This is then also attached to your wreath with hot glue.

Step 6: Final decoration

Use hot glue to attach moss, cones and scatter decoration to your wreath. These elements give your work a natural and detailed look.

Step 7: Hang and admire

Finally, cut a piece of the cotton cord and pull it through the drilled hole. Knot the ends well so that your wreath hangs securely. Now you're ready to display your rustic wreath in your favorite spot!
