DIY Color Wrapped Wheat
Equipment
- dried wheat stalks
- embroidery floss
- scissors
Instructions
- Start by gathering a small bunch of wheat stalks, around 5 to 7 for each bundle. I prefer using an odd number for a more balanced look, but feel free to adjust the size to your liking.
- Hold the bunch together near the top, just below the wheat heads. Take your embroidery floss and wrap it around the stalks once, tying a secure knot to hold everything in place.
- Now, begin wrapping the floss tightly around the stalks, covering about 2 inches. Rather than moving your hand around the wheat, I found it easier to hold the floss steady and spin the wheat stalks themselves to create the wrap.
- Once you've covered the desired area, tie another knot to secure the end of the floss, and trim any excess. Repeat for as many bundles as you'd like!
