Seasonal Wreath


What's the point in buying wreaths that cost so much money and you can only display them for few weeks of the year? It's pointless, right? Seasonal Wreath - keep the same wreath all year long and switch out the arrangements according to the season!


Recently, made this wreath for my fall decorations. For this wreath, I used brown paper bags  and flowers. I loved my wreath so much that I wanted a Christmas version . So I did just that! 




To make this an actual seasonal wreath, you don't want to get rid of your floral pieces. KEEP THEM. You will begin this process by cutting off the flowers from the BACK. This will help keep your arrangement in one piece. 


At this point, you would add Velcro. Now you have your Fall seasonal floral arrangement. 


You have a "blank canvas" again. 


To fill in the remaining empty space, cut a brown paper bag in 1/2 inch strips. After that, you will crinkle the pieces by scrunching them in your hands.


 Make sure your wreath is covered completely by your crinkled strips.


Decide what the materials will be for you Christmas piece. 



I began by cutting my garland pieces individually. 


Then, I added some frosted leaves for detail. 


After that, I cut my frosted cranberry and glued them inside my garland. 


The last step, I added some pine cones that I got from my backyard which makes it even more special! 


I love the final product and am thrilled I can change the pieces based off of the season! 


Thanks!
