Create a DIY Christmas wreath that’s as unique as you are.

Everything You Need For Your DIY Christmas Wreath

For those of you who are new to the world of DIY Christmas wreaths, let me start by saying that there are two main types. The first is a traditional Christmas wreath with pinecones and holly and the second is a more modern version that includes natural elements like berries, flower stems, leaves and pods. Both types of wreaths can be made without pine cones! I love both types and I have made them both for my home over the years.

The first thing you need to decide is whether or not you want your DIY Christmas wreath to include pinecones. If you do, choose only fresh looking cones with no signs of decay (they should be crispy on the outside and pliable in the middle).

Making your own Christmas wreath is a great way to save money and add a personal touch to your home.

Here are some tips to help you get started:

Choose a base for your wreath. If you want to use pinecones, you’ll need a base that can hold them in place. You can use an existing wreath as a base, or buy a wooden ring or other base at the craft store and decorate it with ribbon or paint.

Decide how big you want your wreath to be. If you’re making one yourself, measure the diameter of the opening in your door or window frame (usually about 18 inches) and use this measurement as your guide when choosing how large to make it.

Choose your materials. You can use anything from twigs and branches to moss and dried flowers if they look good together! If you’re using fresh flowers, try using them sparingly so they don’t wilt too quickly after being hung up on display.

Hang some lights! String lights around the outside of your wreath for an extra festive touch!

To make a wreath, you’ll need some wire, floral wire and scissors. If you want to add pinecones, start with a base of twigs and then add the cones.

Once you have your base, wrap the floral wire around it in an attractive pattern. Then cut off excess wire and attach it to the back of your wreath form with more floral wire.

If you want to use real pinecones, pick ones that aren’t too big or too small. You don’t want them to be too heavy or they’ll weigh down the rest of your greenery. And if they’re too light, they’ll blow around in the wind and get tossed out of the wreath by accident.

You can also use artificial pinecones if you prefer — just make sure they look real enough! They come in all shapes and sizes these days, so it shouldn’t be hard to find one that looks authentic enough for your taste.

To add interest to your wreath, try mixing up different types of greenery as well as different sizes and textures of pinecones. Together with your choice of flowers or other decorative elements (such as bows), this will give your wreath a variety of textures that will make it look like something special!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year, but it can also be one of the most expensive. The average American spends over $700 on Christmas gifts every year, and that’s not including decorations.

If you’re looking to save some cash this season, consider buying a pre-lit artificial Christmas tree instead of an actual one. They’re much less work and require very little maintenance. However, they still need care and attention if you want them to last through the holidays.

Here are some cheap ways to care for your pre-lit artificial Christmas trees:

Proper care starts with a good choice of tree. Choose one that’s fresh, sturdy and has branches that aren’t too thick or too thin. If you’re buying a real tree, look for needles that are dark green and not brown. If you’re buying a fake tree, choose one that looks like real wood.

Keep it dry. When you store your tree after the holidays, make sure it’s in a dry place with plenty of air circulation so it doesn’t get moldy or mildewed while it waits for next year’s festivities.

 If possible, keep it outside during warm months so rain doesn’t collect in the branches (which can lead to rotting). If that’s not an option and you have to store it indoors, use a large box with holes punched in the bottom for drainage so water doesn’t pool at the base of your tree.

Clean up spills quickly. If there are any spills on your tree (whether from water or food), clean them off immediately.

Make sure the lights are unplugged when you are not decorating or moving the tree. This will help them last longer and prevent possible electrical fires that could happen if you leave them plugged in all the time.

When you unpack your tree, make sure to wash off all of the packing materials, especially if they have come in contact with soil from outside. This way, you won’t need to worry about any insects or pests getting on your tree and making their way into your home later on in the season.

When putting up your tree, make sure that it does not touch any other trees or shrubs outside of your house. If this happens, there is a chance that sap from these plants could get on your tree and cause damage to it over time.

Don’t overdo it with decorations. If you hang too many ornaments on one branch, they’ll put too much weight on that branch, causing it to droop over time. Choose a few favorite ornaments and then hang those strategically around the tree so they’re evenly distributed among the branches. Don’t use a lot of big ones or heavy ones; opt instead for small ornaments that won’t weigh down any one branch too much.

Keep lights on timers if possible so they don’t get burned out overnight when no one is around to turn them off and on at night and during naps throughout the day when everyone is sleeping!
