#Straw #Weaving – #Pentagram Star

"I’m still very into my straw weaving projects! 🙂 This time I did a pentagram star with wheat and rye. I used the same technique in my Lavender Star Tutorial.

Materials:
I used 10 pieces of wheat stalks (available here*) and 5 pieces of rye for my star. For the straw ring you’ll need several straight pieces of straw and some thick floral wire. Additionally I decorated everything with some ribbons."
