This spring wreath took me about 20 minutes to put together. With a toddler and pre-toddler around, that’s about all this momma has time for sometimes!

How to Make the Easiest Spring Wreath Ever | Dwelling in HappinessHere’s what you’ll need to make your own:

  1.  Large grapevine wreath (I got mine at Michael’s)
  2. 1 greenery garland (also from Michael’s)
  3. A couple of bunches of pretty faux flowers
  4. Floral wire
  5. Wire cutters
  6. Ribbon for hanging

While I was at Michael’s finding supplies for this wreath, I had in mind of using a bunch of sprigs of greenery. I realized the bill was really adding up fast as I had a cart full of them. I put them all back and instead, I grabbed a garland full of greenery (and score, it was half off!) to use. Michael’s always has 40% coupons you can use, too! I hadn’t thought to use an already-put-together garland as the “meat” of my wreath, but boy did it make it so easy!

I would wire them together every 6 inches or so, as I went around. When I got back to where I began, I used my wire cutters and just snipped off the remainder of the garland. Some of the greenery was a little wiry and sticking out in weird spots, so I just tucked a few of the faux leaves under the branches of the wreath.

I then started sticking the stems into the wreath sideways so they’d sit snug and not fall out. I kept placing flowers until about 1/3 of the wreath was covered.
