Tools and Materials

  • wired gold ribbon
  • scissors
  • wire cutters
  • hot-glue gun + glue sticks

1. Lay the Foundation

To construct this captivating fall wreath, begin with an 18" grapevine wreath as the foundation. Use hot glue to adhere metallic pumpkins of varying sizes and shapes around the wreath. Incorporate a few glittery pinecones for added sparkle.

2. Add Glitter

Use wire cutters to separate sprigs of glittery leaves. Slide these through the grapevine wreath, ensuring a diverse mix of colors and textures. Arrange the leaves all in the same direction around the wreath and secure them with hot glue.

3. Go Goth

Add sprigs of black leaves and eucalyptus to achieve a glamorous yet dark aesthetic. Place these sporadically around the wreath to create a striking contrast.

4. Add Finishing Touches

Insert sprigs of glittery twigs emerging from the top of the wreath, aiming them down and out rather than in a circular pattern. Place a golden bow as the final element to complete your elegant design.
