How to Make a Simple DIY Scandinavian-Type Wreath
I have loved the simple Scandinavian-type wreaths forever. I love the idea of a candle on the wreaths. I love the simplicity.
It looks pretty hanging on my hutch with the mercury glass trees. Here's how to make this DIY Scandinavian wreath:
1. Paint the hoop and cup white
I used a metal ring from Walmart. It was gold and I wanted a chippy white one. So I put some Vaseline in some areas of the wreath and then I spray-painted it white. Then, I scraped off the paint in the areas where I put the Vaseline.
2. Glue the cup to the wreath
I painted a candle cup I had got at Hobby Lobby and hot glued and super glued it to the wreath. I used a clamp to hold the candle cup on the wreath form overnight.
3. Add greenery
I looked for some greenery I had lying around in my stash and used zip ties to attach them to the wreath.
4. Add ribbon
I tied a gauzy ribbon to the candle cup after it had dried and was attached nicely.
5. Add a candle
I am going to use a battery-operated candle in it.
DIY Scandinavian wreath
I am so happy with the way this DIY Scandinavian wreath turned out. Later, I can remove the greenery so it can be up all winter after Christmas.
Let me know if you make one; I would love to see your version.

You can use the rings from old lamp shades to make these, as well.
