Steps to make a fall wreath for a front door 

Step 1. First I started with a grapevine wreath that I purchased on Amazon.  Grapevine wreaths provide a fantastic surface when creating your own fall wreath. Depending on how big you want your wreath to be, will determine the grapevine wreath size. This is an 8″ but I typically would have gone with a 12″ wreath.

Step 2.  I used a variety of faux leaves that I had left over from last fall. You can buy them at any local craft store. These happened to be wired together as a leaf swag/garland so I simply cut the leaves off with wire cutters and hot glued them around the wreath. You can buy a leaf swag on Amazon for under $20!
