How to Make a Floral Wreath

Crafts wreaths

You’ll love this project if you’re looking for a gorgeous wreath that is easy to make and requires very little time to create. I love that this wreath is so simple and accessible, even if you’re not a big-time crafter. The key is to have a wide variety of faux flowers and a few colors on hand. Choose your favorite flowers and colors, or allow my wreath to be your template and guide. 

I’ll show you everything you need to make this floral wreath. It will be ready to hang on your walls or front door within minutes. 

A similar version of this wreath caught my eye on Amazon. Once I spied it, I knew I was hooked and had to make it. But, if you aren’t interested in making one, you can easily buy it via this link. 


Why You’ll Love This Wreath

  • Simple to Make
  • Quick to Create
  • Super Pretty and Colorful
  • Relatively Inexpensive 
  • A Fun and Creative Project
  • Customizable
  • Buy All Your Supplies Online
  • Only Need Three Supplies
  • Don’t Have to Be Crafty

If you’re like me, you probably have a lot of wreaths in storage. I must have a variety of wreaths for each season. I don’t usually buy them since I can’t always find the exact style for our home. I like to switch out the wreath on our front porch with the seasons. Did you know that in the South, most homes have wreaths on their front doors to welcome guests? What a wonderful, cozy tradition.

So, let’s start that tradition and make this pretty floral wreath. 

Here Are Some Easy Wreath DIYs

  • Chunky Wool Wreath
  • Cherry Blossom Wreath
  • White Daisy Wreath

Supplies You’ll Need For This Wreath

  • Wreath Form
  • Faux Flowers ( I focused on Box of Pink Flowers, Yellow Roses, and White Ranunculus)
  • Wire Clippers

Directions to Make Your Flower Wreath

Step 1 – Gather Flowers

Place your flowers out and organize them by colors

Step 2 – Trim Stems

Trim the flowers off their long stems with your wire clippers. Leave about four to seven inches of stem below the blossom. Do this for all your flowers. 

Step 3 – Attach Flowers to the Side

I attached my smaller pink flowers to the side of the wreath. So, if the wreath is viewed from the side, the flowers show, not the green foam wreath.

Step 4 – Attach Flowers

Attaching the flowers is easy. Insert the end of the flower stem right into the foam wreath form. 

I started with my larger pink peony flowers first. Placing the bigger flowers first guarantees that they will create a balanced composition. I put four large flowers around the wreath form. 

Then I placed the next biggest pink flowers. 

Finally, I inserted the white and yellow flowers as accents.  

Step 5 – Fill In Spaces

If your wreath has empty spaces, fill them with extra small flowers. 

Step 6 – Add Greenery

I stripped some of the flower stems of their green leaves and added them for accents and movement. I always love a slightly loose and organic wreath to look realistic. So, place your greenery or other flowers so that they break the basic wreath shape.

Wreaths are an easy way to add color and beauty instantly to your home. I think of them as little decor cheats. Not only are they pretty, but they also emit a cozy warmth that breaks a cold, sterile wall or door. And I’m all about creating an inviting home for my family and friends. 

This wreath is part of a wreath blog hop. Make sure to take a look at my friend’s wreaths below. 

Happy crafting, and enjoy decorating your home!

Cheers,

    The floral wreath is lovely, but quite an investment in flowers. As much as I love it, I’m not confident enough in my wreath-making skills to spend that much money on something that’s not a sure thing.
