Autumn Wreath

I would like to introduce you to my friend Autumn Wreath. Say 'hello,' Autumn Wreath. (Okay, so I'm really glad that my wreath didn't start speaking. That would be super creepy.)


I have a goal to create four wreaths for my front door, one for each season. Obviously, with the rain and cooler temperatures and changing leaves, this wreath is currently hanging on my door. It may not be much to look at, but it was super simple to make.

I bought one of those faux leaf garlands, a grapevine wreath, and some ribbon. I attached the garland to the wreath at regular intervals (every other plastic chain link) with floral wire, made a big bow and attached it using floral wire. And voilĂ ! An autumn wreath that only took about twenty minutes to throw together.

Do you change your look with the seasons? Do you embrace the natural door look? Are you curious how I hang my wreath without a wreath hook or pounding a nail into my door? Leave a comment and share!

Definitely change out the decor by season; and definitely interested in how you put up that beautiful wreath without making any holes!

Hahaha. Okay, I'll share my innovation tomorrow. :)

I haven't been posting lately because I've been spending all my free time cutting out snowflakes!

Can't wait to see what you are going to do with those snowflakes... :)
