DIY Spring Wreath for Your Front Door

I think spring is at least STARTING in most parts of the country now. And it has been a long time coming after this past winter!

Do you want something new to decorate your front door for spring? I recently made this wreath with peonies (a favorite!) for my front door, and I thought I would share how to make a spring wreath like it. 

If spring-like weather hasn't quite hit your area yet, this project might encourage it a little bit (or at least give you something pretty to look at while you wait!).

Spring Peony Wreath

Materials:
1 grapevine wreath (choose whatever size you like - mine is 18" in diameter)

2 faux floral peony bushes (8 peonies total)

2 lamb's ear stems

1 pussy willow stem

1 eucalyptus stem

1 roll 2.5" wired ribbon

chenille stem or wire

1 decorative sign

Tools:

scissors or wire cutters

hot glue gun
hot glue sticks

1. Cut the peonies off their stems and glue them in a random fashion on the left side of the wreath.
2. Cut the lamb's ear and leaves from the peony bushes into smaller groups of 2-3 leaves each.
3. Cut the eucalyptus and pussy willow into separate stems.
4. Glue the longer eucalyptus and pussy willow stems near the ends of the last two peonies so that they begin to circle the wreath toward the right side.
5. Glue the lamb's ear and leaves from the peony bushes around these stems and also in between the peonies.
6. Make a bow from the wire ribbon and attach it to the wreath on the right side.
7. Attach decorative sign beneath the bow.

Notes:

If you're not experienced with making bows, you can use this YouTube Bow Tutorial to help!

If you leave long tails on the wire that you use to secure the bow, you can use that same wire to attach the bow to the wreath.

My hot air balloon wood sign already had a wire attached to it (for hanging). I used that wire to attach the sign to the wreath. If your sign does not have a wire, you can hot glue it to the wreath.

Hope this wreath DIY project is one that you'll try for yourself! Happy spring!
