I hope you had a great, long weekend! Now that September is here, I am ready to do all things Fall.
I pulled out my early Fall wreath and it looked a little sad this year.
Instead of spending $30-50 on a new wreath, I went on the hunt for something to refresh it. I made the wreath a couple of years ago. I bought nice quality florals then so it was the perfect candidate for a refresh. We went to Dollar Tree over the weekend where we were able to find some mini pumpkin picks that were perfect.
They were $1.75/stem - cheaper than Hobby Lobby.
I LOVE how it turned out!
Always grab a couple more picks that you need because you can always work them into your design.
I tried hard to find all the picks with three pumpkins on them. They had a redish pumpkin, these organe pumpkins and white pumpkins. They had a ton of Fall flower picks. Some were terrible. Some were perfect. It's worth the dig.
The tags sliced off easily.
Leo was so excited to help me. I didn't add any hot glue or take down the wreath. We just worked the stems into the grapevine wreath.
Lots of kitty supervision required.
Wreath BEFORE: Not terrible, just a little flat after using it for a couple of years.
AFTER: Better with some fall leaves and mini pumpkins.
I love all the different colors and textures for Fall on our red front door.
I hope this gives you some inspriation to refresh a wreath of your own!
What an easy upgrade. It looks great!
