I ‘ve been waiting for warmer weather to make my spring wreath. Today, when I woke up to beautiful sunny skies I quickly grabbed my supplies and started working on the wreath for my front door.
When I stepped out on my back porch to go photograph my finished wreath I was nearly knocked down by the wind.
The wind was so aggressive but, the sun was shining down and I could feel the warmth on my face. I lugged myself towards the back of the house to place the wreath on the fence.
I started photographing the wreath it was simply a gorgeous spring day, wind and all! The weather was definitely a welcome change from the cold rainy weather that we have been experiencing the last few days.
What’s the weather like where you live? I hope you like my Spring Welcome wreath as much as I do!
Would you like to know how I made my wreath ? Keep reading!
What You Need To Make A DIY Spring Wreath

- Artificial Flowers
- Black Sharpie Marker
- Floral Wire
- Ribbon
- Jute
- Burlap
- Scissors
- Chalk
- Hot Glue Gun
How to Make DIY Spring Wreath
Cut the bottom of the stem from the flowers . Using floral wire secure the flowers together .Secure flowers to the wreath with floral wire or hot glue, make sure you cover the wire with the flowers.
Make a template for your welcome banner by drawing and cutting out a triangle to the size you want. Trace 8 triangles on the burlap with chalk.
Cut triangles out. Using a Phillip screwdriver poke two holes in each triangle. Use sharpie marker to make the letters . Spell out “Welcome”.
String together the triangle’s using the Jute. Hint: put tape or glue on each end of the jute to make it pass easily through the holes. Glue your banner to the wreath.
I think the wreath looks great on the fence but, will look better on my front door. I really like the way the “Welcome” banner turned out.
I can use this wreath throughout the summer months. It will look great for Spring, Easter and Summer. Have you bought or made a wreath lately?

It was really easy to make. The hardest part was making the banner. Great idea about reusing the wreath later when I 'm ready to put something else up. Thank you for stopping by! Have a great night, Kim
