Crafting is a favorite holiday activity for moms and kids! However, it can feel a bit overwhelming when you have half-finished projects and supplies spread across your dining room table. It’s dinnertime and the options are to find a new place to temporarily move the crafts (because we all know how clear our counters are…) or to switch dinner to a living room picnic.

If crafting is something your family loves to do, it may be time to create a designated area to let that creativity flow. Our partner, American Home Furniture & Mattress, has some great ideas on how to take your home crafting to the next level!

Read on for simple steps for a DIY holiday wreath your children can help with.

DIY Holiday Wreath

1. What you’ll need!

  • Wreath ring
  • Wire garland
  • Ribbon
  • Gold glitter tulle
  • Holiday inspired faux leaves/flowers
  • Scissors
  • Hot Glue

* I found my wreath supplies at my local dollar store in the craft section.

Step 1

  • Use the wire garland to wrap around the wreath ring until you reach your desired fullness.
  • Tie a knot to secure or use hot glue.

Step 2

This is where you can really get creative!

  • To attach the ribbon, use hot glue.
  • Wrap the ribbon, twist or create bunches to fan out the ribbon.
  • Cut the flowers or other décor from the wire stems.
  • Push them into the wreath ring or use hot glue.

Step 3

This is a fun DIY that children can also help with!

*Make sure to supervise the use of scissors and hot glue.

  • Add the rest of your décor to your wreath
  • Tip: Place your décor on your wreath before you glue it, this way you can move it around if you don’t like the placement.
  • Tie the tulle as a topper to hang your wreath or tie small pieces around the wreath to add some sparkle!

Step 4

Display your DIY holiday wreath!

  • Use an over the door hanger to display.
  • Command hooks also work well if you want to display your wreath on a wall or mirror.
