When the leaves begin to change, we know itβs time to start breaking out the fall dΓ©cor β and thereβs no better place to start than your front door. To add a touch of warmth to your welcome home, try making one of these easy autumn wreaths.
What Youβll Need:
- Natural Grapevine Wreath (18β recommended)

- Wooden Letter(s)
- Hot Glue Gun
- Scissors

Steps:
Step 1: Visit your local craft store to purchase a natural grapevine wreath and your accessories, or to make it more of a fun experience, take a nature hike and pull some accessories off the trail.
Step 2: Lay your flowers, leaves, and other accessories on the wreath. This will give you a general idea of what your finished product will look like. Fiddle with the layout until you get it just right.
Step 3: Begin gluing your accessories onto the wreath with a hot glue gun. Be very careful not to get any of the hot glue on yourself, ouch!
