Easy Spring Wreaths

One of the best ways to say hello to spring is with a bright and cheerful wreath for your mantel or front door. And while you can always buy one, making it yourself is a much more affordable and rewarding option. You know we love our “DIY” projects!


This week, we’ve gone around the web looking for creative wreath ideas that are also easy to make - just follow the links for the how-to’s and have fun! First up, this simple tulip wreath by U Create is so pretty. We love the choice of colors.

This moss-covered wreath by Better Homes and Gardens is perfect as interior decor. Simply cover a grapevine wreath with moss, then decorate it with items that say “spring” to you.

Sometimes, simple really is best. This wreath by Ten June is so natural looking and perfect for springtime, with an understated elegance and garden feel.

Who says all wreaths have to be round? This easy ruffled wreath by Delightfully Noted is built on a picture frame and, yes, that IS kraft paper!

Technically it isn’t a wreath, but this door decor from Better Homes and Gardens certainly is cute! It reminds us of the old saying, “April showers bring May flowers.”
