Modern Gold Fall Wreath with Faux Peonies

I personally love having a floral wreath on my front door any time of the year. They’re incredibly beautiful, give the front porch a more welcoming appearance and just add a little bit of character to my overall plain outdoor decor. Peonies are one of my favorite flowers that I miss the most during the fall, so of course I’m going to make a peonies-themed wreath! If you, too, want to adorn your front door with this fabulous modern wreath and bring some elegance to your outdoor area, follow the guide below!

Materials:

• 10″ (24.5 cm) gold stained metal ring
• a glue gun
• floral wire
• faux peonies in different colors and sizes
• seeded eucalyptus greenery
• faux lamb’s ear

Instructions:

• Take the eucalyptus and the lamb’s ear and cut their stems off, leaving just a tiny bit of them poking right below the bottom leaves.
• Then, take the peonies and cut their bulbs off their branches.
• With the floral wire attach the lamb’s ear to the metal ring.
• Make sure that the ends of the stems meet roughly in the middle, where you will attach the peony bulbs.

• Then use the floral wire again to attach the eucalyptus stems on top of the lamb’s ear.
• Try your best to mask the floral wire in between the leaves as best as possible.
• Plan out how you’re going to arrange the peony bulbs on the ring.
• It would look best if you start with the bigger bulbs and place them in the middle of the greenery, then place the smaller ones on both sides.
• Once you’ve mapped out their positions, take the hot glue gun and apply a generous amount on the area where you’re going to glue them.
• Place the peonies on the areas with glue as quickly as possible and press gently to make sure they’re set in place.

Rustic Fall Burlap Bubble Wreath

This rustic wreath design is so aesthetically pleasing it looks like it was store-bought! The truth is that it’s actually incredibly easy to make and it’s so versatile you can repurpose it for any season! Here’s how to make it yourself just a couple of simple steps!

Materials:

• 3 rolls of burlap
• metal wire wreath
• autumn-themed decoration of choice
• beige or brown pipe cleaners

Instructions:

• Take the burlap and tie a knot around the metal wreath frame.
• Make sure that the knot is facing towards the back of the wreath.

• Once you’ve tied the knot pull the burlap outside the frame in order to create a tiny knot.
• The wreath should be positioned in a way in which the knots are on the back, and you are facing the front.
• Before each next loop, twist the fabric below it twice.
• If you’ve bought a wreath frame with 3 openings, make 3 loops in each opening of the frame.
• Continue the same process on the opposite side similarly to the way you would do a French braid.

• As you’re making the loops you can pull and twist them to create your desired shape.
• Take the pipe cleaners and use them to tighten the burlap at the end once you’re finished with the knots.
• If there are any areas of the wreath where you are not satisfied with the shape, you can also use the pipe cleaners to adjust the knots and give them a different shape.

• Take your fall-themed decoration of choice and use a hot glue gun to place it in the desired position at the front of the wreath.
• If you feel like the glue won’t be good enough, depending on the type of decoration you’ve chosen you can use the pipe cleaners, as well.
