Instructions on Making Cheap Boho Decor Stand
Now that you have all the supplies available. Let's start making this boho decor stand.
First, I traced the wood circle shape using a marker on the cork sheet. Using scissors, I cut on the line to make two cork circles. Then, I set them aside. I moved on to the next step.
I then added hot glue to the top of the circle and placed the cut cork circle on it, pressing evening. Then, I turned it over and did the same thing to the other side.
With the hot glue, add a bead of hot glue on the side of the cork. Run the hot glue and add the ribbon to cover the two cork pieces and the wood. You only need to use hot glue for the top of the ribbon to adhere to it. Be sure to go around twice with the hot glue and ribbon.
Let it cool completely before placing it on the Boho Stand.
Optional: I added a grapevine pumpkin (bought as is) to the top of the stand.
Add the ribbon around the stem by wrapping it around and then tying it, allowing the ribbon to fall evenly on each side.
Add the silk flower stems to the top of the grapevine pumpkin around the pumpkin's stem.
