Before guests arrive, everyone cleans up the house and hangs decorations. And among all the garlands, candles and gifts, of course, the Christmas wreath occupies a special place. It can be hung on a door or wall, or placed in the center of the dining table.

In stores on the eve of the holidays you can see a large selection of wreaths of various designs: with ribbons, balls, candles. But to make it truly special and unique, and also cost much less, make it yourself. How to make a Christmas wreath with your own hands? Very simple!

Here you will find 5 step-by-step master classes on making a Christmas wreath. Choose which one you like best: from balls, spruce, pine, pine cones or even mesh.

First, let's look at how to make a traditional Christmas wreath from spruce, which can then be mounted on the front or interior door.

Tools:

  • straw wreath mold (optional size),
  • balls (must match the size of the wreath: as the base of the wreath increases, the size of the toys also increases),
  • decorations in the form of branches with red and zloty beads, a red ribbon for a bow, pine cones (large and small),
  • spruce branches (thin so that they are easy to bend),
  • several other branches (for example, pine),
  • scissors, floral wire (preferably green),
  • red and gold decorative flowers (three pieces each).

Lay everything out on the table and get to work.

TIP: You can make this form yourself from dry grass and cling film. Additionally wrapped with tape.

Step-by-step production

STEP 1: Making a base from branches

  1. First, make a base of pine branches. Lay them out in the same direction, e.g. counterclock-wise, let the ends of the branches be on the right, and lay the soft tops of the branches to the left side. Attach them to a straw wreath, tie around with floral wire, tie down to the base.
  2. Continue adding more branches around the shape.
  3. Look, are there any empty seats left?, fill in all the gaps with smaller branches.
  4. So far he looks a little disheveled and sloppy. Wrap a little more wire around to tie down any large branches that are sticking out. The wire should be hidden behind the branches. Now you have a uniform, lush wreath - the foundation for further work.

Step 2: Decorate the wreath

  1. Now add a few other branches (in the same direction as the pine ones), distributing them evenly throughout the wreath.
  2. Attach a red bow. You can do without it, then the look will be more festive.
  3. You can add small pine cones if there were none on the branches themselves.
  4. The distribution of colors should be symmetrical(so that it doesn’t turn out that all the red decorations are in one place, otherwise it will look like a red spot). Divide the wreath into 4 parts, one of them has a bow, and the other three add a branch with red beads.

In principle, it already looks good and you can leave it like that, you can finish it.

IDEA: Or hang the wreath in this form first, and after a week add decorations, this way you definitely won’t get tired of the wreath during the holidays

Step 3: Add More Decorations

  1. For contrast, attach several branches with gold beads.
  2. Attach the pine cones: wrap the floral wire around the pine cone close to its base and attach it to the wreath, securing it well in place. Make sure the wire is visible, as less as possible. You can also stop at this point, or continue adding balls.
  3. Attach three balls, taking into account the same conventional division of the wreath into four parts
  4. Add three red and three gold decorative flowers.

You did it! The result is a wonderful Christmas wreath, all that remains is to attach it to the door to delight yourself and your neighbors!

How to make an Advent Wreath

Following the workflow just described, you can also create an Advent Wreath.

According to tradition, there are four candles on it: the first one was lit 4 weeks before Christmas, each subsequent Sunday one more was lit, so it was visible how the holiday was approaching.

Now a wreath of this type can be made with for traditional reasons and for decorative purposes. In any case, it will help create a festive atmosphere.

So, let's get to work:

  1. We create the base of the wreath from the branches, add small pine cones, as in the previous case.
  2. Fasten with hot glue gun candle holders(preferably with sharp pins at the bottom to insert into the wreath between the branches, but ordinary ones will do too), insert candles into them.
  3. We decorate the wreath with large cones and decorative flowers (two each in red and gold).

ATTENTION! Do not leave such a wreath unattended with lit candles!

Master class No. 2: Balloon wreath

To make such a wreath, you most likely won’t even have to go to the store for materials. After all iron clothes hanger and Christmas balls Almost everyone has it. So choose a time to work and get going!

You will need:

  • 1 wire hanger, red Christmas balls (the number depends on the size of the balls you have at home),
  • pliers, wire cutters (optional),
  • bow ribbon,
  • pine or Christmas tree branches (or garland),
  • wire or strong thread (preferably green).

Step by step execution:


Step 1:

  • Use pliers to give the hanger a round look. Don't worry if it's not perfectly level, the balls will cover all the unevenness.
  • Unscrew the hanger, that is, disconnect it at the attachment point under the hook.

Step 2:

  • Place the balls on the wire. If the end is too sharp or uneven, cut it with pliers. Once all the balls have been strung, bend the hook with pliers to secure the circle.
  • There is no need to hang the balls on top near the hook, since there will be ribbon and pine branches in this place.

Step 3:

  • Attach branches to the top of the wreath on both sides of the hook (tie them with wire or thread).
  • Make a ribbon bow and attach it under the hook.
  • All is ready! There’s even a hook right away, all you have to do is hang it!

Master class No. 3: Pine cone wreath

A Christmas wreath made of pine cones is very simple to make, but its main advantage is that it is stored for a long time and does not fall off, unlike a spruce wreath. It can be sent for storage until next New Year.

Materials:

  • Dry cones from 30 or more pieces, depending on the diameter of the wreath
  • The base for the wreath (if you don’t have one ready like the photo, cut out a torus from thick cardboard)
  • Glue gun.
  • Decor at your discretion.

Work order:

Stage 1: Laying the first circle

  1. Using a glue gun, we attach the cones to the inside of the Torus or circle.
  2. Inside is best attach smaller cones.
  3. The distance between the cones is 1-2 cm. They should not be attached closer. Maybe even 3-4 cm.



Stage 2:

We do the same thing, but on the outside of the circle with larger cones. Distances between them - 3-4 cm. They should lie freely - not overlap each other.

Stage 3:

  • And now fill the middle row- he seems to should be on top internal and external row. You can attach the cones not vertically upward, but slightly pointing them in different directions, filling the voids.
  • We decorate with sprigs of berries or live spruce.

TIP: If you add a garland on top, it will be even more spectacular!

Master class No. 4: From pine branches

“Simple and tasteful” is the most suitable phrase for this method of production. Christmas greenery and minimal decorations. but nevertheless, when you look at the door with such a wreath, it immediately becomes clear that there is a truly festive atmosphere here!

Materials:

  • wreath mold made of thick wire,
  • greenery (real or artificial pine branches, other conifers are also suitable),
  • cones, wire (for tying branches),
  • glue gun,
  • small bells,
  • ribbon for bow.

ATTENTION! When choosing the length of the wire form, keep in mind that after attaching the branches, the wreath will increase several times in size.

Manufacturing stages:

  1. Take a few pine branches and Attach them to the form using wire. First fix the ends of the branches, then wrap them around the wire several times, wrap them with wire. Wrap the entire base in this manner.
  2. Make another ball of twigs on top of the previous one, in the same way. You should get a uniform coniferous wreath.
  3. Attach some pine cones.
  4. Add 3-4 bells golden or silver color to create festive mood. Attach with a glue gun.
  5. Make a ribbon bow and attach it to the wreath.

Every time you open the door, you will hear the quiet ringing of bells and understand that the holiday is in the air around you!

Master class No. 5: Wreath made of decorative mesh

You will definitely surprise all your neighbors with this wreath! This colored hemisphere will not leave anyone indifferent; just looking at it will make you smile and have a sweet anticipation of the holiday!

Materials:

  • round wire wreath base,
  • decorative mesh in rolls about 50 cm wide (several colors, compatible with each other),
  • fluffy decorative wire.

TIP: If you don’t have such a base for a wreath, then you can cut it out of thick cardboard with a torus thickness of -10-15 cm. Then attaching the mesh can be done using a needle and thread or a glue gun.

Manufacturing stages:

Step 1:


  1. Cut off approximately 25-30 cm mesh and roll it into a roll. Squeeze in the center with your fingers. To make it more convenient, you can take someone as an assistant to hold the packages.
  2. You will need a lot of these rolls, they don't have to be exactly the same length.

Step 2:

  1. Group rolls together 4 each, connecting the centers and tying them in this place with fluffy wire. Leave the ends of the wire for attachment to the base.
  2. Tie each such part to the base of the wreath(the remaining ends of the wire). They should be close to each other, leaving no free space.
  3. Continue until the entire space is filled.


Ready! It turned out very colorful and festive! If desired, you can hang a toy on the wreath so that it is in the center. But be careful not to overdo it, so that it doesn’t turn out to be “too much”, because everywhere you need to know when to stop.

But if you haven’t seen it for sale in retail stores, and you don’t have time to wait for it from an online store, there is only one way out: make it yourself.

What to make the base from? From anything. As a base, you can use an embroidery hoop, wire, a circle cut out of cardboard or foam plastic, a corrugated tube (for example, from an old vacuum cleaner), or thermoflex (this is pipe insulation - sold in hardware stores). If you choose thermoflex or corrugated pipe, you will need to work a little to create a circle shape, namely: simply cut off the required length and glue the edges with tape or tape. A more troublesome method: glue together cardboard toilet paper tubes.
