How to Make a Natural Wreath For Fall

A beautiful wreath can be a welcoming addition for your front door. Here's how to make a wreath from mostly natural materials to welcome fall. It's a fun and easy craft project for you and the kids.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• large grapevine wreath form
• orange or brown ribbon
• raffia
• acorns
• dried sunflowers and mums
• dried berries
• pine cones
• hot glue
• colored fall leaves

1. Prepare the leaves by drying them in a book so they will be flat. Spray with a shellac if desired.

2. Wrap ribbon around the base of the wreath and tie in a pretty bow at the top. Secure with hot glue.

3. Hot glue dried flowers around the wreath form. Space the flowers fairly evenly around the form.
   
   Hot glue the berries, acorns, and pinecones around each section of flowers to make a nice design.
