How to Make a Christmas Wreath That’s Cozy & Inviting

These are the supplies I used:

• 1 6″ wire wreath frame
• 12″ wire wreath frame
• Chunky Luxe Big! Yarn by Loops & Thread
• greenery picks
• berry picks
• ribbon
• crochet hook

First, form a loop with the yarn and insert the crochet hook in the loop.

Then bring the yarn down across the front of the wreath frame and bring it around the back of the wreath frame.

Now wrap the yarn around the hook and pull through the loop.

Basically, this is a chain stitch, along with wrapping the yarn around the wreath frame with each stitch.

It should be noted that with each stitch, the skein of yarn will need to be brought across the front of the wreath frame and then brought up the back of the frame and then make the chain stitch.

Again, bring the skein of yarn across the front and wrapped around and catch the yarn with the crochet hook.

Continue working this chain stitch around the wire wreath frame.

Clearly, once you get into the grove of it, wrapping the yarn around the wreath frame will become effortless.

Once the entire wreath form is covered with the yarn, cut the yarn from the skein.

Finally, wrap the tail around the crochet hook and pull through the loop. This will form a knot.

Insert the crochet hook through several loops on the backside of the wreath and pull the tail through.

Repeat with the other tail.

Trim the tails with scissors.

If you want to layer 2 wreath frames together like mine, repeat on the second wire wreath frame.

Once both wire wreath frames are covered with chunky yarn, cut a length of yarn and tie the two wreaths together with a knot.

Finally, weave the tails through the backside of the wreath.

Not only did I want to embellish my Christmas wreath with greens and berries, but I also want to add a soft and cozy bow.

With this in mind, I used the same cozy flannel ribbon I used on my Christmas tree and created a bow and secured it with wire.

Then, I secured it to the wreath frames with wire.

Finally it’s time to add the greenery and berries. I inserted the picks under the wire that secured the bow.

Last but now least, fluff the bow and make it look pretty.

I originally planned on placing my embellishments on the left side of the wreath, However once I hung it up, I realized that it was too heavy on the left side and my Christmas wreath hung crooked. 🤪

In order to remedy this, I readjusted my picks and bow and made them centered at the top of the wreath. That worked perfectly.

Indeed, this cozy Christmas wreath created the look I wanted for my home this year.

It’s soft and cozy looking and still has that festive Christmas feel.

Likewise, when January rolls around I can switch out the embellishments and turn it into a winter or Valentine’s Day wreath with ease.

Now I’ve got a little bonus for you as well! Along with the Christmas wreath tutorial, I’ve also have a quick video tutorial below for more Christmas decor for the front porch.
