Making one can be a delightful project, resulting in a piece that’s perfect for your Thanksgiving decor, whether you hang it on your door or use it as part of a centerpiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Guide for Constructing a Wreath From Dried Corn Husks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\nPrepare the Husks: If the corn husks are not pliable, soak them in water until they soften. Pat them dry but leave them a bit damp so they’re easier to work with.<\/li>\n\n\n\n Attach the Husks: Begin by gluing the end of a husk to the wreath form and wrapping it around. Continue this process, layering the husks and ensuring they overlap to cover the form completely.<\/li>\n\n\n\n Secure the Ends: When you reach the end of a husk, glue the tip to the back of the wreath form to secure it. Start the next husk slightly over the last to maintain a uniform look.<\/li>\n\n\n\n Trim the Wreath: Once the wreath form is fully covered, trim any uneven edges with scissors for a clean, circular shape.<\/li>\n\n\n\n Let Dry: Allow your wreath to dry completely, preferably overnight, to ensure all the husks are securely attached.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\nFelt and Burlap Napkin Rings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nNapkin rings are a detail that can elevate your table setting from ordinary to extraordinary. Using felt and burlap, you can create a textural and visually appealing detail for your Thanksgiving table. Here’s how to make your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Instructions for Handcrafting Napkin Rings Using Felt and Burlap<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\nCut the Burlap: Measure and cut strips of burlap approximately 6 inches long and 2 inches wide. This will give you enough length to wrap around the napkin and overlap slightly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n Cut the Felt: Cut a strip of felt slightly narrower than the burlap to create a layered look. The felt strip should be about 1.5 inches wide and 6 inches long.<\/li>\n\n\n\n Attach Felt to Burlap: Use fabric glue to attach the felt strip to the center of the burlap strip. Press down firmly and let it dry.<\/li>\n\n\n\n Create the Ring: Once dry, add a small line of glue to one end of the burlap strip and wrap it around a napkin to form a ring. Overlap the ends and press to secure.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With the holiday just around the corner, you might be looking for fresh ideas to spruce up your…\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":3341,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.mummy-time.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Thanksgiving-Crafts-for-a-Memorable-Holiday.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mummy-time.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3312"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mummy-time.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mummy-time.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mummy-time.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mummy-time.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3312"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.mummy-time.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3312\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6279,"href":"https:\/\/www.mummy-time.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3312\/revisions\/6279"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mummy-time.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3341"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mummy-time.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3312"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mummy-time.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3312"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mummy-time.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3312"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
