My front door has been so naked without anything on it. I don’t know why wreaths stress me out, but they do. Then once I do it, it’s SO easy. But all of those aisles at Hobby Lobby with strands of greenery and flowers everywhere just makes me nervous. I’m a dork, I know. I guess when there is too much of something, it just overwhelms me.
So, here is what I got.
Since I like real hydrangeas and daisies, that’s what I got for my wreath (the fake ones of course). Put those 2 together along with some greenery and you get this…
I am by no means a wreath expert and will never claim to be, but I think it turned out pretty! At least our door is dressed appropriately now. :) Wreaths are so easy, seriously. Just pull the flowers off the stems and hot glue them on the wreath. And according to this picture, I need to glue on another daisy in that empty spot. Oops! And hopefully I will overcome my fear of “too many fake flowers at Hobby Lobby to choose from” one day so I can make seasonal wreaths. :)
Here’s one more shot.
I’ll be showing you soon our front door entryway area. I’ve been sprucing it up! :)
xxoo,
Decorchick!
Susan says
That is beautiful…and since I also need something for my front door and those flowers are perfect…I am SOOO copying you! Plus the hydrangeas are the perfect color that match my front door. I can’t put anything on the door itself as we have a storm door, but it goes on the wall next to it.
Decorchick! says
Haha, thanks Susan. I’d love to see it when it’s done!
T.Bird says
So summery! I love it!
Decorchick! says
Thanks T.bird!
Melissa Miller says
Emily it turned out so precious! Great job!
I just ordered a new wreath for our front door as well. I’m sure I overpaid but I do suffer from the anti craft gene. *Smiles* I don’t even own a hot glue gun.
Have a wonderful day. ~Melissa :)

You don’t own a glue gun?? Say it isn’t so?!

Gina/Rustown Mom says
Purty! A good thing to do, fyi, is hot glue a strip of felt around the back so’s it won’t scratch your door. Learned this the hard way. Once you get started with wreaths, it’s hard not to change ’em up a lot with the seasons or holidays and is cheap and fun! Good job!
Decorchick! says
Oh Gina, brilliant idea, thank you!! Never would have thought of that.
Desiree says
That’s a really pretty wreath! I need to make something for my naked front door as well. I was thinking of making one of the fabric strip wreaths that I have been seeing but not sure how it will hold up to the weather. Thanks for sharing!

Decorchick! says
Thanks Desiree! I would have loved to make one of those cool wreaths everyone is making nowadays too, but it didn’t seem practical to put outside. :( But there’s always room for inside! :)
Donene Jones says
It turned out beautiful and it does look so summery!
Decorchick! says
Thank you Donene! Summery is what I was going for. It’s SO HOT!!!
Jen says

Great job1

Blue and white are such a favorite color combination for me. AND I love hydrangeas and daisies! Such a pretty summer wreath!

Mary C says
I love your wreath! I’m the same, terrified of all those flowers at HobLob. Since I have a wreath form exactly like yours (with no idea what to do with it), I will go to HobLob and find a few flowers/greens I like and hot glue ’em on. You are my motivation! Thanks!
