Ticking Stripe Fabric Wreath - how to make this easy rag wreath using ticking stripe fabric and old denim

What is it about cold winter days that make me want to get creative and crafty? Maybe it’s the stir craziness of being cooped up, or can it be that moving around keeps me warm? Since we had an unexpected snow day today, I wanted to make something cozy and farmhouse-y. So, I rummaged through my craft closet to see what inspired me. And nothing says farmhouse style like some good, old fashioned Ticking Stripe.

This classic blue and white striped fabric pairs so nicely with denim and I knew it would be a fun way to DIY something with it. Today, I made my own Ticking Stripe Fabric Wreath and I do believe that it’s going to be a favorite of mine!

Here’s how to make one for yourself. Affiliate links will be included for your convenience. You can read my full disclosure here.

Ticking Stripe Fabric Wreath

2 yards Ticking Stripe Fabric
Denim Fabric – I used old blue jean scraps for mine.
16″ Wire wreath Form
Scissors

Cut all your fabric into 6 inch strips.  Be prepared for your hand to get tired with all the cutting. In retrospect, I wish I had one of those cool rotary cutting sets. Since I didn’t, my scissors got a workout!

I cut each strip to about 1/2 inch wide.

Next you tie your pieces to the wire wreath form. I wanted my wreath to be predominately the ticking stripe, so I scattered the pieces of denim here and there to add that pop of blue.

I worked in sections, cutting and tying, in order to give my hand a rest.

Once I finished the wreath, I added a few more pieces of denim here and there in spots that I thought needed a bit more.

Oh, I just love how it looks on my DIY Barn Door, don’t you?

Since this was such an easy DIY, I could make a Ticking Stripe Fabric Wreath in all kinds of colors. This would be a great handmade gift to give as well!

The little pieces of denim popping through add such whimsy, don’t you think?

    I have seen these cute wreaths pop up all over the internet.. Yours is my favorite with the ticking! I love the homey, farmhouse look of it and I happen to have a ton of blue and white ticking. Looks fabulous on your barn door. Don’t be mad at me…..I found a gorgeous red and pink scrap wreath in the form of a heart at Goodwill for $2.99. It’s going on my front door soon!

    Literally, this is so adorable! I want to make one right now! The ticking fabric has my heart and Jodie and I have visions of barn doors dancing in our heads so you are spot on 🙂 We are so excited you joined our linky party! We hope you’ll join each week.

    SO cute. Quick question. Did you tie each piece to the center wire or all of the wires on the wreath? It looks nice and full but I wanted to try it and mine look as good as yours!

  17. Darlene @ Castle Revival

    January 26, 2018 at 1:31 pm

    Just stop by from Friday Friends Parade LP to let you know I am just smitten with your wreath tutorial. My affinity for ticking prints and wreaths means I just had to pin this to my board for my next crafting project. Thanks for sharing!

    I’m honored this inspired you! Share a pic if you make one! Enjoy your weekend!

  19. Jennifer

    January 27, 2018 at 1:39 pm

    Thank you so much Cindy! I tied each ribbon to one single wire – and repeated the process for all four wires. It was a tie, scrunch it down, tie, scrunch it down method. I did take a coffee break halfway through to let my fingers rest.

    I just spent weeks going thru all my fabric to organize it and have better idea what I have. Then today was looking for something else and found more fabric in an Iris drawer tower tucked in corner of sewing room. Might not use blue ticking but will be using something have plenty of. Have wreath form already also. Will be good project to work on while watching favorite tv shows. We don’t live close to a fabric store so I usually like to use what I have to try an idea out first. Then if it works out well for me, and this should, make at least one more or for a gift.
    Your wreath is so cute,love the blue ticking and some denim interspersed among ticking, sure says farmhouse. How long did it take you to make?
    Have great weekend and enjoy your new wreath.

    Hooray for fabric scraps! This is such an easy wreath to make! I would say it took me at the most 2 hours to complete. Cutting the fabric was the most time consuming. I did one hour one day and finished it up the next day in about 30 minutes. Share a pic of your finished product with me! I’d love to see it!

  • Sweet Ollie has had quite the week. It started Friday with a cluster of seizures that landed him in the doggie ER. Ever since he’s been home, he seems like a different dog. We aren’t sure if it’s the meds or the effects of the events from Friday, but he’s definitely tuckered out. At least we have glimpses of our sweet boy here and there. 
One thing is for sure - we certainly love this mutt and what a perfect way to celebrate that love than on National Love Your Pet Day. We are so thankful that he is on the mend.

  • Oh my goodness! Thank you so much for your encouragement, reassurance, kind words, and prayers! Ollie came home last night and slowly has been coming back to the sweet mutt we know and love. The past few days have been so traumatic for him so he’s been out of sorts. .
But as the day goes on, both he and I are on the mend and I thank you for all the prayers - truly! .

  • Well, we found out yesterday that our sweet Ollie is epileptic. We had suspicions, but never saw them with our own eyes, until yesterday. He had a cluster of them and is at the doggy ER to get them under control. It was scary and we felt so helpless. .
In the midst of it, I somehow pulled a muscle in my leg and have been couch bound most of the day. Funny how things fall like dominoes, isn’t it? But we are thankful that Ollie is getting the treatment he needs and we have hope that we can get this under control.  Thank you for being a sounding board over the past few weeks while we’ve tried to figure this out! I love this supportive community!
