DIY Autumn Wreath Projects to Decorate your Front Door

Many people decorate their doors with Christmas wreaths for the festive season but Autumn leaves and other materials also lend themselves to DIY autumn wreath projects.

There are colorful leaves, branches and twigs and acorns and pine cones all over the yard just asking to be dressed up. 

Add these to some ribbon, a wreath ring and a few other craft supplies and you have a great way to make the entry to your house very special.DIY Autumn Wreaths

DIY autumn wreath projects bring the season to your door

Here are some of my favorite designs.  Some are quite simple, and some are a bit more ornate.

Some use mainly store bought supplies and others make use of nature’s gifts.

DIY Glitter Autumn Wreath

This lovely and colorful wreath has a glittery Bird as its focal point.  Wrap a wreath ring with raffia and attach your bits and pieces and you are good to go.

See the step by step tutorial at Because of Madalene.

DIY Gourd Autumn Wreath

Gather your ornamental gourds and some faux (or real!) greenery and you will end up with a creation like Stephanie’s Gourd Wreath.

Find out how to make it on Garden Therapy.

DIY Hydrangea Autumn WreathThis feminine wreath made use of my hydrangea blossoms that are out in full force right now.  The color is subdued and these wreaths are so easy to make.

Timing is the key.  Find out how to make one at The Gardening Cook.

Chinese lantern wreath.

If you have Chinese lantern plants in your yard, it produces lovely bulbous orange pods in fall. Use them to make into a festive fall wreath. (or you can purchase a similar one on Etsy.) 
DIY Autumn Swag Wreath

This trouser hanger Autumn swag wreath from Organized clutter could not be easier to make.  Carlene just gathered some faux flowers and reeds and clumped them together in the opening of the trouser hanger. 

Quick and easy and such a lovely greeting. See the tutorial at Organized Clutter.

DIY Burlap and Sunflower Wreath for fall

Lotus pods, pine cones, some leaves and a plaid ribbon help to showcase the big sunflower on this lovely autumn wreath. I love the way it looks on the the distressed wood of the door.

See this project at Sweet Something Designs.

Magnolia Leaf Autumn Wreath on a slate gray doorThis lovely wreath can be made for very little. The main part of it is dried magnolia leaves. 

Add a few pine cones and a strip of burlap for a loose ribbon and you have a rustic addition to your front door. See how to make it at Southern Hospitality.
