One of the prettiest items for fall decor is a fall wreath! Having a beautiful fall wreath doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive. Here are 25 festive DIY fall wreaths that you create yourself for a fraction of the cost!
Honest confession: I never took much of an interest in decorating my house for fall. Truth be told, fall was always a little depressing for me. As a teacher, it was the end of summer and back to work. Yay.
Fall equaled hectic: new classes, new students, getting back into the routine of long days, bringing home work at night, and weekends filled with more work.
However, now that I’m home with my boys and they are (slightly) more manageable – Hey! It’s fall! Let’s decorate!
Well, can I just tell you? I went to scope out wreaths, and I couldn’t believe how expensive they are!!! Maybe it’s because we’re living on one income now and everything seems expensive – but no, for real. Wreaths are expensive!
So, of course – on to Pinterest to find some DIY options! I’m not a hard-core DIYer, but there are definitely options that even I can pull off.
I’ve rounded up 25 of some of the prettiest wreaths out there. These DIYers are so creative! Ugh! I’m so jealous that I did not get their crafty, DIY gene! But still, I will give it a go.
Now, I realize the official start of fall is in 3 days, so DIY might not be an option for you. So, I also included a few links for ‘look-alikes’ if you would prefer to buy them instead of DIY. Not all of them have a link – some are just super-unique and there’s nothing else out there like it – but if you prefer to shop rather than create – have at it!
