1. Neutral pumpkins
Sometimes simple is best. To achieve this simple and cute fall wreath, paint a variety of mini pumpkins shades of pink and white, you can also paint the stems gold for an extra touch. While those are drying, wrap your wreath form in felt and glue into place. When your pumpkins are ready, lay them out and glue them into place, being sure to conceal the felt underneath.
2. Rainbow pumpkins
For a brighter take on the painted pumpkin wreath, try a rainbow color scheme! This is a great option if you’re looking for a bright spot on those cloudy fall days. If neutrals or rainbows don’t do it for you, you can choose any color combination you’d like!
3. Marigold monopoly
It’s easy, it’s high impact, it’s a slew of marigolds. And we love it. Buy some (a lot) faux marigolds, a grapevine wreath, and hot glue and you’re in business. Trim the stems from the marigolds and glue them into place. We love how this wreath leaves some of the grapevine wreath exposed to add textural variety.
4. Dried hydrangeas
Similar to the marigold wreath, this fall wreath takes advantage of the fading hydrangeas of summer. Glue the flower clusters on to a grapevine wreath, covering it totally in colors of your choice. For a more long lived wreath, opt for faux hydrangea blooms.
5. Gold hoop
A gold embroidery hoop offers a clean framework for your wreath. This one uses a 10″ hoop and sports seeded eucalyptus, lamb’s ear, and lavender and burgundy peonies. Use hot glue and floral wire to attach your florals to your ring, focusing the largest blooms on one side of the bottom and feathering out.
6. Dried lotus pods
Dried lotus pods are a modern addition to any wreath and are a great way to decorate without being too overtly “fall”. Cover a foam wreath form with sheet moss and then hot glue your pods in a layout you like. Fill any gaps with foliage of your choice. Here they used green leaves, which gives a late summer feeling, but you could also use orange leaves or red berries for a more autumnal feeling. Secure everything with hot glue and floral wire as needed.
7. Flowers and pumpkins
In lieu of all orange marigolds, consider adding a variety of colors that appeal to you to achieve a cheerful and feminine fall wreath. Mini white pumpkins are nested among them, lending a fall vibe to the whole ensemble. When placing your pumpkins, try using an odd number of pumpkins and focus the largest ones in the center and radiating out.
8. Fresh florals
Grapevine wreaths come in clutch once again. Here, button, spider, and garden mums are brought together for a fresh fall look. Hypericum berries, lotus pods, and nandina foliage round out the arrangement with moss filling the gaps. Attach your selections with floral wire and enjoy. You can also use faux flowers and hot glue for a more permanent look.
9. Lush peonies
Orange and burgundy faux peonies create a fiery riot of autumn color, punctuated by vibrant green foliage. It’s lush, bright, and chic. A winning combination. Take a grapevine wreath (the MVP) and glue your peonies into place and fill any gaps with your faux foliage. Don’t feel limited by the orange and burgundy, you can choose any combination you like.
10. Going nutty
All of us here at Lucky Girl Living might be part squirrel because we love the rich browns and textures of this nutty fall wreath. Start with a foam wreath and pack it out with any nuts your heart desires and hot glue into place. This wreath features acorns, Burr oak acorns (they’re different, we swear), walnuts, pecan shells, hazelnuts, and more, but customize it as you like.
11. Vines and berries
For a bright, clean look, try spray painting a grapevine wreath white and weaving bittersweet vines and berries throughout. You can use hot glue or wire as needed to secure into place. The overall effect isn’t fussy but is still chic and works for both fall and winter.
12. Foraged foliage
A grapevine wreath is the perfect canvas for leaves you’ve gathered from your own neighborhood. When gathering, try to get multiple colors and shapes to keep it interesting. You can also add berries (store bought is fine if you can’t find any around) to break up the leaves. We’d recommend leaving part of the wreath bare to keep it from looking too shaggy, but you can customize it to your taste! Flowers and nuts are other great additions to this fall wreath.
