I wanted to title this post: How to Make a Fall Wreath Even If You Have No Flower Arranging Skills Like Me!

Flower arranging and bow-making are two of many crafting skills that I just don’t possess. Try as I might, it’s just not happening.

In spite of my less-than-stellar flower arranging and bow-making skills, I still was able to make this pretty, fall wreath.

Recently I came across a beautiful wreath made by Christy at Confessions of a Serial Do-it-Yourselfer. Isn’t that one of the prettiest wreaths you ever did see?!? I love it. And I wanted to make one just like it!

I read every word that Christy wrote about how she made her pretty wreath. So off I went to Michael’s to pick up everything I’d need to make Christy’s wreath.

And this where things started to go awry.

As I was looking at all the beautiful fall flowers, foliage, berries, twigs, and willowy thingies that fill the floral aisles at Michaels, I thought . “Well, I shouldn’t copy it exactly anyway. I’ll put my own little spin on it. Plus all of the pretty, fall foliage is 40% off!”

And well. I just couldn’t help myself.

I bought more than supplies than I needed to make Christy’s wreath.  I went overboard. And since I was going from my memory (never a good idea for me) of what was needed for Christy’s wreath, I just winged it.

Remember, I’m no good at making bows so I had to buy one of those, too!

Just look at the pretty artificial hydrangeas. How could I not include them?

I started out just as Christy instructed. Starting with the furry stems at two opposing sides of the grapevine wreath. I think those furry stems are the only items that I bought that Christy listed to use. And I didn’t even get the right color! I told you I shouldn’t trust my memory!

I just kept adding more of the small floral stems, grape clusters, and wheat stems, and whatever else caught my eye – working my way down those two sides of the wreath until I had a few bare inches left.

And that’s where I added the 3 three large ivory daisies (?)…..

and the big pre-tied burlap bow.

It looks EXACTLY not like Christy’s wreath. But that’s okay. I still like it!

What do you think of it? It’s definitely not as striking as Christy’s, but I think it will do nicely!

What about you, have you started fall decorating yet?

    Pleasantly pleased! I much prefer to look around the things in person where I can see and touch them. My local store did not have long versions of string of pearls. I based my items some other reviews and purchased artificial flowers. Definitely worth the value. Look realistic. artificial Smell is minimum which I anticipate go away shortly. Added some more photos since 2015.just check out https://yataiuae.com/collections/artificial-flowers-tulip

    […] Here is an example of a DIY wreath on Pinterest. The wreath we are planning to make technically is more of a Fall wreath than a Christmas wreath, but that’s okay! Make your wreath however you please! I really like fall colors so I was more focused on getting orange flowers and some leaves. We got most of these supplies at Michael’s which is now one of my favorite stores! Like Pinterest, that store is magical and makes you want to create! Not to mention, if you google Michael’s coupons right now, you will most likely find some good deals for your purchase there! I found a 50% off one item coupon for ours! So of course I had my husband take half of the things we bought to a cashier to pay, while I paid for the other half with another cashier so we can each use this coupon  (I know this is sneaky but we’re just maximizing the benefit of the coupon..mommies on budgets know what I’m talking about!).
