DIY Wreath for Christmas- How to Make a Fresh Christmas Wreath
See how I made a DIY Wreath for Christmas with fresh greenery clippings and eucalyptus. Make a fresh Christmas wreath for inexpensive decor this season.
Servings 1 wreath
Cost 5
Ingredients
- Eucalyptus
- 4 other types of greenery we went around w hedge trimmers, looking for overgrown evergreens to trip off excess for the wreath!
- wreath forms
- floral wire
- christmas bells
Instructions
- Start with a wire wreath form
- Use floral wire to wrap greenery around the form. Work little by little and adjust the greenery to make it have the same fullness all the way around. I like to use a variety of different greens and just mix them all in evenly.
- On the big wreath, I started with one kind of greenery and made a base layer. From there I just dispersed in different evergreens. I added the eucalyptus last, because I wanted it to be the star of the show. The other greenery served as more of a backdrop.
- I made the wreath on the front door quite a bit fuller than the ones in the bedroom.
To finish the wreaths off, I tied on bells.
Notes
- For the bedroom wreaths I used a little strip of grain sack fabric to tie on the bells.
- I love leaving the wreaths with a bit of a messy look.
- Just play around with it and wrap greenery on until it looks pretty.
