How to Make a Silk Flower Spring Door Wreath
Step 1 – Attach Birdhouse to Wreath
Begin by attaching the birdhouse to the wreath using florist wire. Add as many pieces of wire as you would like until it feels stable. Trim off any excess wire.
Step 2 – Make and Attach the Bow
Next, make a bow. I used two different ribbons for mine and made a 27-inch tail and 12-inch bow loops. I also have a free how to make a bow for a wreath tutorial for those needing more help.
Secure the bow with florist wire and use the wire to attach it to the wreath.
Step 3 – Add the Flowers
Now it’s time to add the flowers. I started with the yarrow, trimming off some of the stems that were too long. Place the flowers first and then go back and add hot glue to the stems to glue them in.
Continue adding flowers. First trimming the stems, then placing them and finally using hot glue to secure them to the wreath. Don’t forget to spread them out giving them an airy look and moving up the side of the wreath.
Step 4 – Add Greenery
For a beautiful finished look, add greenery throughout filling in the holes and making a full lush and real looking wreath. You can also hot glue bits of greenery into the bow loops to make the bow blend with the wreath.
Step 5 – Add Critters
Add a bird, butterfly, and bee where you would like on the wreath using hot glue for a special touch.
Now you have a fun Silk Flower Spring Door Wreath!
