Budget-Friendly DIY Holiday Wreaths for All Seasons

Tips for the Perfect Wreath

Carefully consider the color scheme: Choose a color scheme to suit the occasion or season. Different shades of the same color add subtlety, while white details bring it to life.
Don’t just cover it in flowers: Make an attractive wreath in which the flowers really stand out. Rather than filling it with flowers, add other elements or leave empty spaces.
Think about the perfect size: Measure where the finished wreath is going to go and think about whether you want it to be the focal point of the room or not.
Pick the right frame: Choose the type of frame that you want. You can build your wreath around a wire frame or use foam or straw for the interior.
Bring it to life: Spray paint the finished wreath gold, silver, or a frosty white to bring it to life. Painting the wreath also protects it from the elements.

Craft an Autumn Sunflower Door Hanger

Who doesn't love a nice floral door hanger at the entrance of their home? With fall around the corner, I thought I would put together a sunflower and fall feelin' piece to decorate the entrance of my friend's house. To make it a little more interesting I attached all the floral elements to a LED lit branch. This project can be done super cheap with most flowers and attachments being purchased from the dollar store.

How to Make a Stackable Pumpkin Address Door Hanger

In years past I've seen where people have stacked pumpkins and put them in a planter--with or without their street numbers on them--so I was going to take a stab at it myself this year and make one for our home with my own touches to it. However, when I went to Michaels this week to get the supplies, I spotted the half pumpkins there that I had started seeing last year; my wheels started turning and I made it my mission to create a stackable pumpkin address door hanger. All-in-all I'm really pleased with how this project came out!

Burlap Fall/Autumn/Halloween Wreath

I saw someone else post a similar burlap wreath. I was shopping at Walmart and thought, I can do this... I must admit you can buy premade ones for almost the same price, but who wants that?!?All supplies were bought at Walmart. And took about an hour to put it all together.

Hula Hoop Christmas Chandelier

I was looking for a fun little way to really step up my holiday decor game this year. I wanted something to change my dining room a lot with a minimal amount of effort. This was actually difficult, since I practically cover my house with holiday decor (tastefully, of course). So a friend and I came up with this great chandelier idea using a hula hoop and some dollar store crafts for an awesome DIY Christmas project. Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

Fall Door Decor

At the side of my front door there is a wooden panel that has three framed out sections. I have always thought they looked like picture frames but they didn't have anything in them. Early in the summer I decided to fill those panels with something pretty and decorative.

How To Make A Beautiful Fall Wreath Or Centerpiece

If you are a person who loves to craft then you are going to love learning how I made this beautiful fall wreath that can also double as a centerpiece too. At one point, I think we’ve all tried to make a wreath and had it end up looking like the loads of wreaths that were out there already. That’s why I wanted to try and create something different using elements I love like acorns, moss, pinecones, and faux leaves.

DIY Magnolia Wreath

This poor magnolia wreath has been through so much and it's all my fault. He started out as a regular Magnolia wreath I purchased from Hobby Lobby years ago. He moved with us to the new house and was on my front door for a long time. One day, I took my Magnolia wreath apart and ever since then I just couldn't get him to look like he used to. I took him apart again and decided I needed to add some life back into the wreath with some dried eucalyptus. This is just a summary of the project.
