Hello! I’m so happy to be bringing some Spring inspiration today. I have a simple DIY Spring wreath to share with you. This is an inexpensive way to freshen things up. I always try to make our home warm and welcoming. I think a wreath on the door or in the entry does that perfectly, this one was created for our mudroom. Do you need inspiration for your wreath? Try looking through a magazine. You can see some of my wreath ideas here. I love to start with a simple grapevine wreath, the one I used is from the Target’s bargain aisle for $3.00. I removed the twine and rewrapped it with some I had.
To recreate this wreath you’ll need:
Any size grapevine wreath, a hot glue gun, moss, a birds nest, eggs and a few flowers. I used dried lavender but you could use your favorite silk flower. I also used a few tiny pine cones I had to finish the wreath and a length of ribbon to hang it.
Hot glue the moss down in a pattern that you like. I tried to mold the moss to the wreath so it looks real.
Add the nest and eggs. I added a bit of moss to the nest before I put in the eggs. Add the lavender or flowers on each side.
Tie your ribbon around the wreath or tie to a loop of the wreath and hang!
Want more Spring ideas? I shared a pretty Spring table and other Spring projects here.
It’s lovely and so very spring with the little nest. :)
Susan I love the wreath with all the natural touches!!! Lavender is my favourite but the moss is super nice as well & what a great idea to incorporate it into the wreath!! Have a great weekend!
Hi Katrin! Thank you. I love lavender too. The moss is staple in my craft room. You too have a nice weekend!!
This is sooo pretty and very inspiring!
I am putting together a sort of Easter arts and crafts compilation blog post, with pictures of creative projects for spring. Would you mind if I shared one of your pictures? I will of course credit it to this post. I did the same thing last year if you would like a reference on how it might look: http://aliciasivert.blogspot.se/2015/03/paskpeppen-2015.html
Thank you for the inspiration!
Sincerely,

Absolutely Alicia, thank you!!
Love it, love it. Hated to throw away those bits of moss, now I know what to do with it. And the ribbon says it all. Spring is here.
Susan, What a beautiful wreath! I love how you added the moss! Thanks so much including me in this fun spring roundup!
