You do not need to be a professional crafter to make these simple but charming ideas yourself. Anyone who wants to make an autumn wreath can choose between two quick craft projects.
Autumn wreath DIY – sparkling paper autumn leaves
Autumn wreath DIY – glue glitter leaves to the door wreath
Tie a ribbon with a clip to the door wreath
The end result – sparkling autumn wreath
To make the first autumn wreath yourself, you will need the following materials: a polystyrene ring / 20-28cm diameter /, cardboard, three different colors of glitter, ribbons, an autumn leaf template, scissors and a glue gun / glue /. Trace the template onto the cardboard. Cut out at least 50 leaves along the template. Spray them with glitter. Beige, pink, brown and bright shades look great, but you can always use your imagination and try different color combinations. You can later use the glitter sprays for other decorations; for example, mini pumpkins in golden shades can decorate the table. Once the autumn leaves are dry, begin gluing them to the Styrofoam ring. At the end, attach a bow to the wreath and secure it with a clip. Ready!
Autumn wreath DIY – craft idea with acorns
The second idea is a little more involved, but with some patience you can easily make this autumn wreath yourself. You will need : a polystyrene ring / 20cm to 28cm diameter /, acorns, green spray paint and a glue gun / glue /. Wash the acorns with water only. Spread them on a baking sheet and bake them in a preheated oven / 180-220 / for 7-10 minutes. Let them cool, then start gluing. Glue the acorns close together so there are no empty spaces. Once all the acorns are attached, spray the autumn wreath green. Voila! The wreath will last longer and can certainly be used for decoration in both fall and spring.
