DIY Christmas Wreath

I’m excited to share a DIY wreath with you all today. It’s been too long. I knew I wanted to make a new Christmas wreath and wasn’t sure what direction to go. This wreath kind of just evolved once I got started, (much like my GIANT Christmas wreath that I made out of a hula hoop). I decided to do a felt covered wreath of some sort and I ended up with this ombre holiday wreath!

It’s super bright and cheerful which I love. Lula thought it was a Valentine’s day wreath at first, so maybe it doesn’t scream “Christmas” but that’s ok with me. Once everything else is up on the mantle, I think it will Christmasy enough. Here’s how I made it:

I started out with a foam wreath circle and a bunch of felt squares ranging from white to red.

I cut each color into strips about 3 inches wide.

Then I just wrapped each strip around, overlapping in the back. I used hot glue to secure. After overlapping the colors, here is how it looked:

I made some green flowers in various shades. I used this type of felt flower and this one as well

It would look so fun and cheery hanging on a door as well!

My DIY Christmas wreath took about an hour to make and it was very cheap. The foam wreath was 1/2 off and the felt was probably only a few dollars total.

    Love it, Megan! I have been digging pink and red together lately. It's totally festive and Christmas-y in my opinion. 🙂

    I didn't realize it was made out of felt when I clicked on it. It looks great and easy enough for my kids to do! I love it. BTW coming from Cast Party!
