DIY: How to Make a Simple Spring Wreath

Another season means another opportunity to decorate your apartment door! Spring brings out some of the best colors and there’s no better way to use them than to make your own Spring Wreath. Not the best wreath maker? No problem! This simple DIY Spring Wreath needs just a few decorative items and a hot glue gun to make magic happen.

What supplies do you need?

• Grapevine wreath

• Wide decorative ribbon

• Artificial flowers

• Miniature Spring add-ons

• Hot glue gun

• Wire cutting scissors

Get Started!

1. Use the wire cutting scissors to separate your flowers into singles or pairs. You will slide the separated flowers into the wreath vines, intertwining the stems within the wreath. The flowers should hold well in the wreath without glue, however, you can definitely add some just to be sure.

2. Once you have all flowers input, wrap your ribbon around the wreath to shape how you want it to sit. This can be done all the way around or on just one side; the ribbon can be spread out or closely wrapped. Use the hot glue gun to glue sections of the ribbon on the back side of the wreath, holding it in place. Depending on how loose it is, you may need more sections glued than if your ribbon is wrapped a little tighter.

3. Now that your ribbon and flowers are on, it’s time to attach your Spring themed additions! After you hot glue your items on, let the wreath sit for about an hour before hanging to ensure all glue has dried.

This DIY Spring Wreath is one of the easiest to do and leaves lots of room for you to make it your own!

We recently hosted a group DIY to make these Spring Wreath’s at our community, Camden Design District, in Dallas. Many residents came out for this DIY and took away a great piece for their apartment home door. It’s so fun to walk through our community and see all the wreaths made at the event!
