DIY Fall Wreath
Just in time for fall, create your own fall wreath with simple supplies and steps!
Supplies
- 18" gray rattan wreath
- 24" toast beige pampas bush
- 17.5" cream aspen leaves bush
- Burgundy maple leaves bush
- Scissors and/or wire cutters
- Super glue (optional)
- Orange and natural decorative pumpkins (optional)
- Green floral wire (optional)
Setup
Gather all supplies on a clean, flat work surface.
Cut Stems
With wire cutters or scissors (I found that wire cutters work best), cut stems from the pampas, aspen leaves, and maple leaves. I cut 4 stems of pampas to place evenly of either side of the wreath.
Put Stems Into Wreath
Stick stems into openings of the wreath. Alternate types of leaves so that they are evenly mixed throughout, and overlap. Stick two pampas stems on either ends of the wreath. You can optionally use glue or floral wire to keep stems in place (I found that stems remained in place without these).
Prepare the Pumpkins
If you choose to use pumpkins on your wreath, use scissors or wire cutters to cut strands of floral wire for each pumpkin you have, approximately 5 inches each, and thread through each of the pumpkins. If you choose to super glue the pumpkins onto the wreath, you may skip this step.
Place Pumpkins on Wreath
Find empty space on the wreath and loop the wire on a vine of the wreath, tying it in place, or use super glue to glue each pumpkin into place. Place the pumpkins evenly throughout the wreath with no two of the same color next to each other.
Hang It Up!
Now you are done! Hang your new wreath on your front door or inside of your home.
