Hi everyone! I know, we are all thinking about spring these days and hoping that it would hurry up and get here. But I just had to show you my DIY dollar store winter wreath. I’ve had the supplies to make it for awhile now and finally just got around to putting it all together. I bought two twig wreaths for super cheap a few years ago and made a Christmas wreath with one of them. Here is what it looked like with nothing done to it
The second wreath just lived in the basement until we moved and I found it again! After the Christmas wreath came down, the front door just looked so lonely and bare. Perfect time to get creative and make a winter wreath that wasn’t too christmassy. A trip to the dollar store was in order (my favorite place by the way). Since this was not too long after christmas the store still had a lot of Christmas florals in. A lot of them could be used for a winter theme as well. I filled my cart up with all sorts of floral picks. Because you can never have too many! I also picked up a couple of garlands.
I spread out a white sheet on my dining room table to catch all of the glitter. Man there was glitter! Then I laid out my supplies.
Next I chose one of the floral picks and just pushed it into the wreath. Since they are made from wire it was easy to bend them into the shape of the wreath. It’s as simple as that! Just keep arranging until you get the look you are going for.
Once I was happy with the arrangement I wrapped the garland around it. The garland helped to hold in some of the stray pieces that were sticking out funny. I also used a twist tie to hold the end of one of the garlands in place. It wasn’t playing nice and didn’t want to stay put.
And there you have it! A really easy to make beautiful DIY dollar store winter wreath.
It goes beautifully with my two pots that I made with some branches from my backyard tree and of course some dollar store floral picks. The birch branches came from my mom’s birch tree. A giant branch broke off this winter and I said ‘I’ll take it!’ Those birch branches can be super expensive if you buy them in store!
Hope you enjoyed my DIY dollar store wreath! Give it a try and make one for yourself!
