DIY Moss and Glitter Wreath

Have Yourself A Merry Little DIY

Today I am excited to be hosting the “Have Yourself A Merry Little DIY” blog hop where 12 bloggers come together to share Christmas DIYs over the next two days.

My Inspiration

If you saw my Christmas mantel featuring my dough bowl centerpiece you know that I am loving moss lately. So since I had an entire bag of moss left over from that DIY I decided I wanted to use it to make a wreath. I didn’t want it to be just a plain moss wreath so I spiced it up with some chunky glitter and glittery pine cone picks.

DIY Moss and Glitter Wreath

Here is what you will need to make this wreath:

• 1 bag of moss
• chunky glitter (I found mine in the dollar bins at Target)
• glue gun
• metal wreath ring (I found mine on-sale at JOANN but I have seen them at the dollar store too!)
• glitter pine cone picks (or any embellishment of your liking)

1. Gather your supplies and find a flat area to make your wreath. Make sure to lay down trash bags to catch any excess moss or glitter. Trust me, this step makes clean up much easier!

Start stuffing the moss into your metal wreath ring and add hot glue as needed to the metal frame so the moss will stick.

Once you are done stuffing and spreading the moss around the wreath frame hold it up to see any holes or areas you may have missed with the moss.

Next, lay the wreath down and sprinkle on as much glitter as your little heart desires! If you have spay adhesive I suggest you use this to help the glitter stay in place.

Finally, hold it up and shake off any excess over the garbage bag. Then add your floral picks or embellishments wherever you love! I love using picks because they stick right in and can be moved around in different spots.

Hang it up and enjoy!
