How To My Front Door Porches Spring Crafts Spring Easter Wreaths

A Brand New Wreath

 
 
 It’s been a long time since I made a new wreath totally from scratch.
I like to reuse and recycle so I usually can find what I need around here somewhere.
Not this time.
I had in my head what I wanted it to look like so off to Hobby Lobby I went.
 
I got a 24 in. grapevine wreath
and this garland, both half price.
 
I talked about this moss I discovered
when I was shopping for my bunny nest.
I had some left and I had the wire.
 
I found the watering can at JoAnn.
I have had the nest for years and just added moss.
I have burlap ribbon in the pic (but I ended up not using it.)
 
 
I attached the garland to the wreath using the wire.
I twisted, cut them off and tucked the rough end under.
 
I wired on the watering can
and used hot glue to attach the nest and eggs.
 
 
 
The green garland shows up
great from the street and pops off the blue door.
 
Thanks to our mild winter
the ivy in my planters never died.
I watered it a little and it’s growing again.
Crazy.
 
 
I figure this look will get me to summer.
Don’t you think?

Thoughts from my friends...

  1. Ann, your wreath is stunning. I love the watering can and nest! So cute…your home is so pretty!

    Sorry I am late to the party…..

  2. SooOOOo pretty, Ann!
    Love how your colors are so consistent — inside and out.
    You do it so well!

    Your wreath is awesome.
    Love how your ideas came together!

  3. I still love that wreath! You always combine the best colors. I need make a wreath "from scratch" and buy all new materials. Thanks for the inspiration.

  5. that beautiful greenery looks great on your blue door and i love the watering can. i checked out your sitting area too–love those navy chevron pillows. i would spend a lot of time on your porch.

  11. Awesome! You did a great job! The nest and watering can are adorable! Love it!
    I saw a "flat basket" type that I want. I don't have a lot of room between my front door and the storm door so it has to be skinny! I didn't like it's decor so much but your idea gave me inspiration to fix it! Thanks for sharing!

  12. I love your garden style wreath! I think homemade wreaths are the best anyway. They're a reflection of the homeowner. Love how you used that watering can on there. I would've never thought to do that. So charming!

  20. To cute with the watering can, DT has smaller ones in different colors. I may buy one today and add it to my wreath on my front door, thanks for sharing such a neat wreath!

  23. I think it's really beautiful. I know what you mean about making it last til summer – i hate changing things out every few weeks. After Easter I will make up one to last quite a while…

  24. Ann, What a beatufiul, beautiful wreath! I love the addition of the watering can and your door color is just perfect to make that green POP. Great job-xo Diana

  29. You are so right. The green in the wreath as well as the blue eggs in the nest really make the blue door pop. Love the watering can, too!

  32. I love your wreath Ann! The watering can is really cute on it and I like the green contrast on your beautiful blue door. Pamela

  34. Looks really nice, Ann! The watering can adds so much dimension to the wreath. I'd say it should make it til summer, unless you get an itch to change it up. :-) Sue

  39. Ann I love the simplicity of this wreath, your restraint always shows your true design aesthetics and I love it, Kathysue

  40. Ann, That wreath is gorgeous!! You should go into the wreath making business, too. :) I really love it and it really pops with your door color.

  46. Such a pretty wreath – it should take you through to fall if you ask me. I still have my winter wreath up, but I've almost worked up the motivation to take it down and put something else up. I love your giveaway, but am a little sad – sniff, sniff – that it is only open to people in the US (although I completely understand). Looking forward to seeing the rest of the porch.

  48. Ah….love this wreath. Can't wait to move, so I can start doing this type of thing again. You must have had such a fun time with this project and you have something so nice to show for your work…

  50. That is just completely awesome, Ann! I love it, so clever and what a gorgeous curb appeal!

    WELL done, ma'am!

  51. It's beautiful Ann! I love wreaths that feel natural and organic. The watering can is a nice addition too. Please don't ever paint your door. I am so in love with that shade of blue!
