I have made a rag wreath using a heart shaped rafia wreath.Just cut your faric into little squares using pinking shears.Use a pencil or screwdriver to push them into your wreath.I mad a cardboard pattern 3x3.You can use several colors.I used 2 solids and 1 print.You can also use a styrofoam wreath but it is very messy..leave the plastic on the rafia wreath.Hope this helps..
