DIY Succulent Wreath

April 12, 2013 by Erin 5 Comments

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.

    This is so pretty – I am not very crafty but this looks like something I can attempt to make and put on my door. I love the succulents.

    Since Facebook is notorious for not letting page owners know when I tag them, I thought I would stop by myself and let you know I featured this post and my readers loved it! https://www.facebook.com/CraftsbyAmanda/photos/a.353593675216.349539.323548680216/10153939518835217/?type=1&stream_ref=10
