How to Dress Grapevines

Decorate grapevines

Grapevines add an elegant touch to any home. This medium is ideal to use in a craft project because it is versatile and inexpensive. Natural twines of grapevine can enhance any room because they have a rustic charm. But grapevines can also be decorated to create stunning displays that will liven up your decor.

Things You'll Need

• Hot glue
• Silk flowers
• Dried flowers (lavender, baby's breath and hydrangea)
• Cup hooks
• Twine
• Stands of light
• Gold or silver garland
• Spray paint
• Acorns
• Embellishments (berries, bows, ribbons)
• Floral wire

Instructions

1. Decorate a grapevine wreath with silk flowers. Twist the stem of the flower into the wreath. Use hot glue to secure the flower onto the wreath. Use flowers that match the color scheme in the room.

2. Dress up your wreath with mini bouquets of dried flowers. Use hot glue to attach dried flowers such as lavender, baby's breath and hydrangea. Create groups of dried flowers or scatter them in a random pattern on your wreath to allow the beauty of the grapevine to shine through. Avoid using dried flowers that break apart when you work with them, such as poppies.

3. Create an outdoor display with grapevines during the holidays. Use small cup hooks to hang strands of grapevine over your doorway and secure with twine. Weave white frost or clear mini lights to the vine. Twist gold or silver garland that can reflect the beauty of the light around the grapevine.

4. Create a gorgeous wall hanging for the holidays. Spray paint acorns silver and gold and hot glue to a long strand of grapevine. Hot glue other embellishments, such as red berries, bows and ribbons, or weave metallic strands of garland into the grapevine. Hang grapevine from one end of the room to the other using cup hooks. Secure the vine with floral wire.
