So I finally got around to decorating my house for fall…and first up was a new wreath. My old wreath had been on our door for a year (yikes!) so it was definitely time to switch things up a bit.
And here it is! I love how it turned out. And the best part is that it was really simple to make.
First you’ll need to gather your supplies: a wreath (already had), wooden initial from Hobby Lobby, green moss, and burlap. I added a little pumpkin to mine that I found at Hobby Lobby for $1.50. Total spent on this project: $5.
First, paint your initial. I just used some old white paint I had left over from this project. Then, start to glue your moss on to the wreath. Glue big sections at a time…it doesn’t have to be perfect, you can always fill in any holes later. Here is where things got a little messy. Moss can “shed” a lot. I recommend doing this outside if possible. I obviously didn’t listen to my own advice.
Once your moss is set, secure your initial to the top of the wreath with a strip of burlap. My burlap wasn’t long enough to tie into a cute bow, so I just faked it by gluing a bow to the top. Then secure your pumpkin with glue….or don’t…it’s cute without it too!
I decided to cover my wreath hanger with burlap too. LOVE it!
My fall front door complete with a white pumpkin (thanks mom!) Looks like I am a little obsessed with the letter “R”!
I also had to spruce up our dining room table with a little fall love too! I used the table runner I made in this post.
This is my favorite time of year! Have you decorated for fall?
You should make these and sell them on Etsy!!!! I'm so serious!! Love it!

Love your fall decor! Beyond a leafy DIY wreath on my front door…my festive decorations are non-existent this year. Oops π
It's so beautiful!
Your front door is really really pretty π
You decorate the same way I do! LOVE it!
I just pinned your wreath so I remember to make it!
OMG! I love all of this! π
Seeing all your monogrammed stuff really makes me want to make it. I think it's because we have the same last name letter. If you want to just start making 2 of everything and mailing one my way… that'd be great!
hahahaha!
and just so you know I'm serious, I was just on pinterest and thought "I better go back to her blog and print out the photo of supplies" so that's exactly what I did.
I can't wait to make this.
And I'm also obsessed with "R" since my soon-to-be last name starts with it as well
SO freakin'cute!! You did a great job, girlfrannnd! π
