Although I don’t do a ton of seasonal crafts these days, I do love creating pretty wreaths. Putting a wreath up is generally the first thing that I do when decorating for a new season. Over the years I have learned a few tricks when making wreaths and ways to save money on the materials.

Although I am using the same wreaths on the front doors as I did last year, I was itching to create something new for a large grapevine wreath that hangs on the side of the garage.

For the breezeway entrance, I used a combination of materials that I have used in previous wreaths like this wreath from 2014 and 2015. I am so glad I didn’t purge the floral picks.

One of the tricks I have learned over the years is not to use any glue to secure your wreath embellishments. I only use floral wire if necessary and only because it’s more work to assemble and disassemble. I didn’t use any glue or wire for this fall wreath.

How to make this wreath

I took my biggest floral stems (the orange leaves), divided and began placing them around my grapevine wreath. I simply inserted them into the wreath, positioning them within the wreath circle so that they would not stick out.
Next, I took my smaller floral (the yellow stems) and repeated the same step filling gaps and creating fullness around the wreath.
My third addition was some small pumpkin picks to give the wreath more dimension, color and interest. I placed these around the wreath in the same place creating a pattern.

The final step was to add a bow using green and rust ribbon. The green was in my stash and I used the rust ribbon on my Christmas tree last year. I am not great at pretty bows so I made a simple bow with the green ribbon and another with the rust. I have pillows on the porch with the same colors so they coordinated nicely.
