Candy Cane Creativity

What’s more Christmassy than candy canes? This is quick, simple, and effective, and we absolutely love the unexpected little hearts that come from the arrangement here. Just make sure you hang it high, out of reach from the kids!

More Sweets

Here’s another deliciously sweet wreath that looks oh so tasty! It’s not complicated at all, but you will need to set aside a good amount of time to stick those candies on one-by-one. It may be a good idea to finish it off with shellac or a spray sealant so that the candies don’t melt, letting all your hard work go to waste.

Layered Leaves

This bushy wreath is a stunning, natural-looking addition to any door. We love the full look of it, and the fact that you have the freedom to play around with any foliage that speaks to you.

Balls of Yarn

This yarn ball wreath is like perfect addition to the door of a knitter! You’ll want to get some cheapish yarn though, because you do use quite a bit to wrap around the styrofoam balls. You can skip out the wooden wreath form by reshaping a wire hanger to use as your base instead. Then attach the balls with U shaped paper clips and some glue to keep them from spinning around the wire.

Festive Felt

Ombre has been a big trend for a while now so why not inject some style to your Christmas decorations? This ombre felt wreath is truly magnificent. We love the colors, we love the fabric, and we adore the finished product!

Door Snowman

This is one of those ‘why didn’t I think of that?’ projects – get three artificial wreaths in increasing sizes, attach them to one another like a snowman, and accessorize! Your front door and porch is sure to attract some attention and jealousy.

Winey Wreath

Many of us wine lovers tend to hoard our corks for no real reason; perhaps we think they can form some sort of a trophy one day. Nevertheless, we were delighted to finally find a project to put our little trophies to good use! See what else you have lying around that you can add in between the corks to jazz it up a little.

Getting Personal

As much as we all love getting presents, Christmas is more about the family time than the actual gifts, and we just love how this wreath reflects that. It’s simple, yet so meaningful and beautiful. This is one wreath that’s destined for inside the home – the mantelpiece by the tree would be the perfect spot.

Frame It!

Who says Christmas wreaths have to be round? Okay, well, by definition they’re supposed to be circular but we like to bend the rules a little in the name of creativity. This tutorial also shows you how to give those boring, shiny ball decorations a personalized makeover. You’ll love showing them off in your Christmas frame wreath!

3D Paper Stars

This is a great project to use up all your spare patterned paper that you may have lying around; we always have half sheets all over the place! Adding a few embellishments and a big pretty bow really makes this look professional rather than handmade.

Curly Paper Strips

Here’s another fantastic project to use you your scraps of pretty scrapbooking paper – just curl them and turn them into a beautiful decorative wreath! You’ll just need a hard styrofoam wreath form, some pins, and just enough patience.

Feathery Fun

As gorgeous and luxurious as this feathered wreath looks, it’s surprisingly simple to make! You basically just have to wrap and glue a boa (or two) onto a wreath form, then add in those bright and shimmery peacock eye feathers.

Toilet Roll Wreath

Yip, you read that right. This stunning and modern wreath is made of toilet rolls that have been painted green! How’s that for recycling? This project is really cost-effective and unique – your guests would never guess that those little flowers were wrapped in toilet paper once upon a time.

Citrus Christmas

Who says Christmas has to be green and red? We love the pop of color from the oranges and lemons, but what we really, really love the most about this one is the fresh, fruity, fragrant aroma. It’s the perfect festive addition to your kitchen.

Paper Dahlia

This paper wreath is a lot less complicated than it looks (which is just the way we like it!), but prepare to spend a bit of time on it. You don’t have to use the traditional Christmas colors but we recommend it to get everyone in the merry mood. This one is best kept indoors – you don’t want that paper to ruin outside.

Marshmallow Madness

This is an easy one: shove some toothpicks (about 500 of them) into a styrofoam form and then impale your marshmallows! You’ll need about four bags of the big marshmallows, and get some smaller ones for some variety. We really love the snowy effect that these soft treats deliver.

Mix and Match

This wreath project is really fun because you get to play around a bit; you start off with a regular grapevine wreath, and then add your own flair with some ribbons, ball ornaments, netting, lettering, and whatever else you have lying around. The tutorial gives you a good starting point, so use that to harvest your own creativity.

Reusing Gift Bows

If you’re anything like us, you have a drawer or box full of these bows thanks to years of collecting them from your gifts. Well, all that storing has finally lead up to this point: for you to make a cheery second-hand bow wreath! Don’t worry if they’re all different sizes and colors – it’ll add to the character and make it more distinct.

Transforming PVC

For a really modern take on the traditional Christmas wreath, why not use PVC in a totally new way? If you don’t have access to a miter saw to cut the pipes to size, you could easily recreate this masterpiece with rolled cardboard. We just love the fresh elegance of it all, and the little compartments that give you extra decoration storage space.

Rudolph Wreath

This is one of the most adorable wreath ideas we’ve seen so far! The tulle netting actually makes the reindeer look fluffy and cute, and the antlers are just genius. Thankfully, this one isn’t actually that difficult to make – you’ll love the whole process, and so will your kiddies.

The Jolly Man Himself

If you’re more into the big man than his helper then here’s an easy Santa wreath project to melt your heart like hot glue from a glue gun. We love how such minimal effort (about 30 minutes) and spending can make such a bold statement! If you can’t find this wreath form you could always tape or glue the ends of a pool noodle to make a circle, or use a wire hanger.

Basic Balls

Making a pretty, welcoming wreath can be as easy as using your glue gun to stick different sized ball ornaments onto a wreath form. Yes, it really is that simple!

Leftover Scraps

This is the perfect project for all you serious crafters who happen to have scraps of fabric, buttons, brads and whatever else stored away neatly in a box (or strewn across your designated craft room). We love the whimsical, thrown-together look of this one, and the fact that the only expenditure will be the grapevine wreath.

Ribbon Love

This is definitely one of the easiest projects – all you need for this beauty is a wire ring and an assortment of ribbons. Simply tie the bows directly on to the wire (use the bunny ear method of bow tying). You can stick with just one dominant color like in the example, or you can alternate between green and red, gold, or silver.

Crafty Clothes Pins

This one is a true stroke of genius; who knew clothes pins could be so Christmassy? This project is a fun one to get the kids involved in and they may feel really proud to display it on their own bedroom doors. They could even use it to hold their Christmas letters to Santa!

Ornament Overload

What makes this wreath more than just a collection of red ornaments is the adorable Santa belt – it’s such a cute addition and it makes such a difference. If you can’t seem to find the red ornaments that you like, or don’t want to go out and buy new ones, you can always just spray paint some of your oldies.

Magnificent Moss

We love the earthy look and feel of this mossy wreath. You’ll need to get a large piece of florist’s foam so your wreath doesn’t have to be square; you can cut out a circular shape and hide any imperfections with the moss. Then it’s up to you to add some extra pizzazz with bows, beads, balls and whatever else your heart desires.

Coffee Filters

This is another easy project to make with materials that you probably already have around the house. If you want a bit more diversity in your delicate wreath, add in some smaller cupcake liners here and there.

Rustic Burlap

We really love the raw look of burlap (also known as hessian), and it really is so easy to make: just tie the burlap strips onto a wreath form! You can, of course, spray the burlap in red or green, but we actually love the neutral tone of the fabric with just the touch of color that the cute flowers bring.

Poofy Burlap

Here’s another interesting way to use burlap; we love the how full, bountiful, and soft the end result looks. Once the main part is done, add your own little personal touch with some fresh flowers, buttons, lettering or other ornaments. If you’re looking for more contrast, get two different colors of burlap strips and place them on top of each other before you start weaving them through the wire.

Bubble Wreath

This is one of the pricier projects, and it also requires more labor and effort, but the modern bubble wreath is totally worth it. And since it isn’t strictly Christmas-looking, you can leave it as a permanent decoration piece in your home. If you want to try save some costs, see if you can find some clear glass ornaments instead of the more expensive bubble balls. You can also weave some fairy lights through the bubbles for added effect.

Stripy Straws

If you just have 30 minutes to spare to make your wreath then this is the one to make. We simply adore this artsy-looking explosion. And you don’t need to waste perfectly good, edible candy canes; these are actually cheap paper straws that you can find at any party store. If you’re not ready to part with it after Christmas, use it as a photo or mirror frame for the rest of the year.

That’s Corny!

Thank you Martha, for your endless wealth of creativity! Transform these cornhusks to make an innovative wreath; you could always just use ribbon, but then you wouldn’t get the great natural texture. Of course, you can dye the husks any color, but we actually really like the striking burgundy. You could also spray paint them if you want to save yourself some time.
