This year, I decided that I would save money and come up with my very own do it yourself wreath from the Dollar tree and I am here to share with you exactly how you can recreate it. After buying all of the materials, this wreath cost me around $10 and matches perfectly with my outdoor Fall decorations!

How to Make Your DIY Fall Wreath
STEP ONE
First, stack your 4 different ribbons on top of one another and pinch/twist them together.
STEP TWO
Next, pinch the ribbon together and twist them around the second outer wire of your wreath ring. Take a zip tie and fasten it around the pinched ribbon until it is tight enough where it won’t come undone. Rotate the zip tie so that the long part of the zip tie is behind your ribbon and in the back of the wreath.
STEP THREE
Create a loop of the layered ribbon and pinch it. Repeat the previous step with the zip tie and continue repeating this process throughout the entire wreath ring.
Don’t stress about making the loops the same exact size, you can open them up later to create fullness in your wreath. Be sure to create at least 3 loops per section of the wreath ring to ensure your wreath has enough volume.
This should be what it looks like once you have completed this process throughout the entire wreath ring.
STEP FOUR
Now that you have created loops with the zip ties on the entire wreath, repeat the process from the beginning but on the inner wire of your wreath ring.
We suggest selecting a different patterned ribbon as the top layer of your wreath to add dimension to your wreath’s design.
STEP FIVE
Once you have filled the entire wreath with loops, this is what you should have. Be sure to spread open your loops to create fullness in your wreath ring and cover any gaps.
STEP SIX
Flip your wreath over and cut the extra part of the zip ties off.
STEP SEVEN
Now, it is time to decorate! I chose to add some acorns, pumpkin picks and mini scarecrows from the Dollar Tree. Use these decorative items to fill in any gaps in your wreath. Another great way to hide any gaps or imperfections is by creating a bow made from the same ribbon. Attach these decorative items with zip ties or a hot glue gun.
