Wire Spring Wreath
Wire Spring Wreath
Hello everyone! About a month ago I shared a spring wreath that I made a couple of years ago but never got around to sharing. That wreath really, really left me wanting to make another wreath.
I’ve actually started using wreaths all through out our apartment, (bedroom doors, empty wall spaces) so I knew I would find a spot for this one as well.
So I created this simple wire wreath using just a few items:
Faux florals, ribbon…
and I made a wire ring wreath using wire that my husband had laying around the house for other projects but hadn’t used for a while.
You can find very affordable wire wreaths in Dollar stores, craft stores and large discount stores like Walmart, and save yourself that extra step or DIY it like I did if you have some sturdy wire on hand.
Wire Spring Wreath
I’m using steel wire to create a ring wreath but as I mentioned above, you can find these in many different discount locations.
If you are making your own wreath here are a few tips:
You can use scotch tape to hold your circle in place as well as…
to cover any cut areas that may be sharp or sticking out, as mine was (see photo above).
faux flowers…
Bunched up to form a simple bouquet then held together with tape (good old tape)
I added a hand made bow…
and my florals were connected to the wire by using some ribbon to tie it around the back and finishing with some tape where ever needed to hold them around my wire. But you can use hot glue as well.
I hope this simple wire spring wreath inspires you to create something beautiful for your home today too!
Sending happy, safe, and healthy vibes your way. May God bless you and your family today and every beautiful day to come!
6 Quick and Easy Easter Decorations
6 Quick and Easy Easter Decorations
Today I’m sharing six easy Easter decorations that anyone can bring together fairly quickly with some basic decorative items.
If you have faux florals, Easter eggs, and a few basic and pretty (they have to be pretty) containers such as vases or recycled jars you can recreate your own similar Easter decorations too.
As always, most of the items I’m using are things that I already have on hand as well as a few
new items.
ok, let’s get started!
Hope you enjoy these six quick and easy Easter decorations.
6 Quick and Easy Easter Decorations
Pink Daisies from Dollar Tree (oh how I love the Dollar Tree)
Bouquet of flowers from Walmart.
I was a little lazy about cutting off the end of my flowers but of course you can use a wire cutter to cut down your flowers to size. The bent stem doesn’t bother me though. Sometimes the thought of cutting down my faux flowers just hurts! I like to keep them long so that I’m able to use them in the future with taller vases, if I wish. But sometimes that’s unavoidable and I have to cut them down.
Tulips from Michaels Craft Store.
Small daisies from Ikea, purchased years ago.
This is probably the simplest but my favorite. It’s really a part of my decorations for our kitchen hutch, but I like it so much that I had to photograph it separate.
All I did was place a few glittery eggs on a couple of plates and placed it on top of our toaster oven. It’s so simple that it made me stop and wonder if I should even bother sharing it but truthfully, I tend to fall in love with the very simple decorations that I place around my home.
They bring a smile to my face!
Oh how I debated on whether or not I should keep the next one! It’s on our very tiny dining, mail, coffee, water bottle table and…
It’s a beer bottle with dried flowers from Valentines day.
When I put this together, I loved it! I love using beer bottles (it’s a good thing my husband likes beers) and I couldn’t throw those dried flowers away! Then I finished off with the cutest little chick and eggs that I found at my local Dollar Store.
So cute!!!
But recently I thought, beer bottles and dried flowers for Easter?!?!? What on earth…
It didn’t seem to fit when we are enjoying all the beautiful new greenery that’s starting to show up on trees and in parks and decorating with pastel colors.
It is also when we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and I’m decorating with a beer bottle (face/palm moment).
Then, I remembered that God loves me…and everything I do (well mostly everything, oh who am I kidding I’m past due for confession). But God loves me, and creativity. He’s not as serious as we may think, or at least I don’t think he is. I think he would approve of my simple beer bottle decoration. So I decided it wasn’t that serious and kept it on our table and now I’m enjoying it every day.
Another simple one that I’m absolutely in love with.
Yellow flowers from Michaels Craft Store.
That’s it for now my friends. I hope you enjoyed these 6 quick and easy Easter decorations and are inspired to bring together a few simple decorations for your home too!

They come all dressed up in beautiful pastels…
a rainbow of vibrant colors…
a dusting of glitter…
You can find them with drawings of bunnies, baskets, flowers, and all sorts of pretty spring stuff.
And you can even have your kids paint the real thing.
It’s Easter eggs.
I absolutely love using Easter eggs for decorating.
Today I’m sharing a very simple table decoration using these sweet little eggs.
I’m using eggs that I’ve had for a few years now and have used over and over again. One of last years Easter decorations (that I shared here on the blog) is similar to what I’m sharing today, but this time I added a few decorative brown rocks to tone down the bright colors a bit.
I used sparkly white, yellow and lime green Easter eggs and finished off with a navy blue ribbon.
and that’s it.

I placed a layer of brown rocks at the bottom of my vase.
Then a layer of glittery white, yellow, and lime green glitter Easter eggs come in.
As you can see in the other photos, I made a bow around my vase using blue ribbon.
I also added some scotch tape underneath the ribbon to hold it in place.
and that’s it!

DIY Lime Green and Purple Spring Wreath
DIY Lime Green and Purple Spring Wreath
Today I’m sharing a spring wreath that I made about two years ago. I made this wreath with the intention to post it here and share but never got around to it.
Honestly, this should probably be a continuation of my post from two weeks ago where I also shared a few DIYs that I never got around to posting.
(oh if I could count the times I make things that I want to share and then never do… (face/palm moment)
I used items that I believe I already had on hand or had recently bought as well as an old wreath that I repurposed from old fall decorations.
Ok, I hope you enjoy this simple lime green and purple spring wreath!
DIY Lime Green and Purple Spring Wreath
I used faux lime green and purple flowers. (purple flowers came from Michaels Craft Store)
(I also added a few white hydrangea petals at the end from the dollar store)
And I used white ribbon at the end to hang up my wreath.
As for my wreath, I used an old wreath that I already had on hand. It had flowers for a fall wreath that I removed and then started hot gluing on my green and purple petals onto my wreath and finished off with a few white hydrangea petals.
and that’s it!
Hope you enjoyed this simple DIY lime green and purple spring wreath! Thanks for stopping by.
