DIY Succulent Wreath

I really love wreaths.  It’s a strange obsession of mine.  I have a whole board on Pinterest dedicated just to wreaths.  Yeah, I know, I’m a weirdo.   It’s OK.  🙂

I’ve been seeing succulent wreaths popping up on good old Pinterest lately.  Made with REAL succulents.  I love the way they look!  So cool.  I love succulents as much as I love wreaths!   But I just know that after all that work and expense, mine would die.  So, when I saw fake succulent picks (at the Hob Lob for 50 percent off)  I knew I had to give it a whirl.  🙂  Fake succulents look just like real succulents to me.  Yay!

What you need

• wreath form   (I used one from the Dollar Tree)
• A bag of dried moss (Again, from the Dollar Tree)
• Glue gun and glue sticks
• Succulent picks (Hobby Lobby, half off!)
• Ribbon

What you do

• Glue the moss around your wreath.  This is messy, but I just glue and wrap.  There will be a bunch of extra on the table when you are done.  I took these bits and glued them to bare spots.  
• Glue your succulents onto the wreath.  I liked this wreath because I could stick the picks right into the gaps of the vine and glue it all down.
• Add a ribbon.  Tie a bow.
• DONE!!

I really like the way it turned out.  It looks all green and Spring-y!

I love succulents.  I love wreaths.  Perfect.  It took about a half an hour and only about 8 dollars.  🙂

It’s a great rainy Spring day craft.
