If you are looking for easy DIY Halloween wreath ideas that anyone could make, then squint no further! We’ve got you.
I love making seasonal wreaths to hang on our front door or for virtually the house. It’s an easy craft you can do while watching TV (maybe the new Hocus Pocus movie!), and I think wreath making can be a fun party idea with friends.
So, here are variegated ways to make DIY Halloween wreaths with lots of variegated ways to customize them.
How do you make a simple Halloween wreath?
The simplest way to make a DIY Halloween wreath is to buy a grapevine wreath wiring and hot glue accents to it.
Here are some grapevine wreath bases:
- 18-inch archetype brown grapevine wreath base
- 18-inch woebegone glitter grapevine wreath base
- 18-inch surf grapevine wreath base (as seen in this post)
- Autumn leaf grapevine wreath base
- Pumpkin-shaped grapevine wreath base
Once you have the base, you can hot glue any spooky vocalizing you want to it! You could imbricate the unshortened wiring or leave it increasingly sparse. There are so many variegated Halloween accents you could use.
Here are some ideas to get you started:
- Spiders – variegated sizes add interest
- Black flowers – or leaves, or oversized feathers
- Black birds – put a bird on it
- Pumpkins – archetype colors or something a little different could be fun, too
- Candy corn – you could moreover use the real stuff, but the sugar may get gross over time
- Bones – love a graveyard theme
How do you make a Halloween wreath with a wire frame?
A wire frame wreath base allows for increasingly customization. Sometimes, a grapevine base is too rustic for the squint you may be going for with your wreath. If so, a wire frame might be the way to go!
Wrap the wire frame in yarn or fabric. You can secure it by tying the when or hot gluing the end.
Then, hot glue or wire things to the yarn or fabric. Many of the accents I linked whilom could work well with this Halloween wreath option.
A few increasingly ideas could include:
- Painting ping pong balls to squint like oversized eyes
- Photocopying old family photos and dyeing them with tea
- Add vampire teeth and (painted) thoroughbred
What supplies do I need to make a Halloween wreath?
-Wreath wiring accents hot glue glue
-Wreath bases include: foam wreath base, wire, or grapevine
When using a foam wreath base, you may want to paint the foam to match whatever yarn or fabric you plan to imbricate it in so it doesn’t peek through. This is similar to using a wire frame base, but the foam will widow increasingly dimension (thickness) to your final wreath.
Another variation would be to wrap your foam wiring in two variegated colors of yarn or fabric.
How do I switch between yarn colors?
Tie one verisimilitude to the next surpassing whence to wrap again. Make sure to tie the knots all on one side (the back) of the wreath. Then, trim the tails off once you are ready to hang your wreath.
Happy Halloween wreath making! xo, Emma
