10 Fall Wreath Ideas You’ll Love
Updated on Oct. 29, 2024
Welcome Friends and Family With All the Fall Feels
I love welcoming guests into my home with a wreath hanging on the front door — I have one for every season! But fall wreaths are particularly beautiful, full of rich colors and textures.
I’ve gathered some of my favorite autumn wreath inspiration for this year, including spooky, elegant and modern styles. Most are DIY-friendly, even if you’re a crafting novice. The hardest part is choosing which one to make (or buy)!
Modern Triangle Wreath
I had never seen a triangle wreath until I came across this beauty from @darling_grape, made with eucalyptus and other fall foliage. She created the perfect balance of autumn colors, along with green leaves for freshness.
You can purchase this triangle wreath directly from her store. But if you want to try your hand at making your own, start with something like this metal triangle form.
Spooky Floral Wreath
For Halloween enthusiasts like me, the first day of fall means it’s time to bring out all our spooky decor!
This all-black wreath by @janeelovesbeer is creepy and beautiful — who knew that was possible? Dark flowers, small bats and spindly foliage (amaranth that almost look like spider legs) create an elegant gothic look. To recreate this wreath, use a black grapevine wreath as your base
Copper and Champagne Wreath
This glittery wreath by @the.accidental.farmgirl is made with faux copper-colored bay leaves and finished with a champagne-colored satin bow. I love the sophisticated look of the monochromatic color palette. Plus, it’s festive enough that you could leave it up through Christmas.
No time to make a wreath? You can purchase this one and other breathtaking fall wreaths through her store.
Rainbow Pumpkin Wreath
Of course, there’s no reason you can’t throw aside the traditional red and orange tones of fall and go color crazy! This rainbow pumpkin wreath by @gaynorlubo is the perfect burst of playful color for your front door.
She made it with pumpkin picks in two sizes. Simply paint each pumpkin different colors to create the rainbow effect, then remove the sticks and glue to a wreath form.
Fall Wreath Kit
This DIY Fall Wreath Kit is a great option if you want to craft your own but aren’t sure where to start. Choosing the right balance of colors and textures can be difficult.
The kit makes it easy, and includes everything you need to make this pretty 24-inch wreath with purple and plum foliage. The creator has full instructions on her YouTube channel, Jenny’s Wreath Boutique.
Waxed Leaf Wreath
Sometimes you can find everything you need for a fall wreath by going on a nature walk (my kids love to help). @mysimplewild fashioned this pretty one with fall leaves, hawthorn berries and rose hips.
After collecting her supplies outside, she preserved them with beeswax, then arranged and attached everything on a round piece of cardboard with a hot glue gun.
To wax your leaves, dip each in melted beeswax, let it drip for a moment over the pot of wax, then lay on parchment paper to dry.
White Leaf and Berry Wreath
This all-white wreath by @livandmarket exudes chic autumn style, and would make a big impact on a dark-colored door. She used two garlands to make this wreath — creamy fall leaf and white berry. The different textures create stunning contrast. It’s easier to use garlands than individual stems and helps the wreath look extra full.
Dollar Tree Skull Wreath
Whether you buy a wreath or purchase the supplies to make your own, it can be surprisingly expensive. That’s why this skull wreath from @kait.dow impressed me so much. Can you believe she bought everything at the dollar store?
Watch as she cuts the skulls in half, attaches them to a wire wreath form, then paints the whole thing black. Clever!
Acorn Wreath
If flowers aren’t your thing, buy this rustic acorn wreath from Etsy shop @HomeBeautyDecor. To make something similar, try a mixture of acorns, pine cones, chestnuts and preserved moss. This wreath is all about the textures and warm browns created by the different natural elements.
Beaded Pumpkin Wreath
Here’s another cute one you can make with dollar store items.
Follow along as @lizfenwickdiy starts with a wire pumpkin wreath form. She wraps the stem and the outer perimeter in twine, then threads round wood beads onto the pumpkin shape. Stylish, affordable and super easy to make. What more could you want in a DIY wreath?
