Wreath Making 101: Seasonal Ideas & Inspiration

Wreath Making 101: Complete instructions to create a wreath from scratch plus a gallery of ideas for every season. Consists of a series of blog posts that show you how to create a wreath from start to finish.

For as long as I can remember, I have loved wreaths. I’ve had them in every room of my house at one time or another…and of course as a symbol of hospitality on my front door. Over the years, I have picked up tips and tricks that have made wreath-making easy and fun. I’d like to share those tips as a token of my thanks for your support of my blog, so I’ve put together a little tutorial called Wreath Making 101.

Nine times out of ten I start with a grapevine wreath…or sometimes two grapevine wreaths. Visit my [How to Make a Wreath] post for details on how to get started. I show you how to take a plain, pile-of-sticks wreath and transform it into something wonderful. Click [HERE.]

Not always, but most of the time, I add a bow. There are lots of ways to make a bow…but if you want a perfect one every time just follow the directions in my post [How to Make a Perfect Bow.]

Now that the basics are taken care of, it’s time to add your own signature touch. Below are some wreaths and door baskets I have designed that may inspire you to dig in and make one of your very own. Many times all I need is a little inspiration to get started. Sort of like planting a seed. Use my seeds…but make them grow yourself. These are all easy and budget friendly ideas. Some of them are seasonal but go ahead, click over and pin them for later.
