DIY Magnolia Wreath

DIY Magnolia wreath for less than $10!

Any Fixer Upper fans out there reading this?  I have to admit I'm a huge fan of the show.  I love Joanna's style.  I needed a new wreath for the front door of my house, and love the look of the magnolia wreath.  Although I don't love the price tag of the Magnolia Wreath for sale at Magnolia Market:





So I decided to make my own.  I'm pretty excited with how it turned out, and the low cost was worth the risk, which was even better.  I'm going to share how I created my own magnolia wreath.





Supply list:
Wire Wreath from Hobby Lobby
Magnolia Garland from Hobby Lobby
Green Painter's tape (or any type of tape, green preferred)
Hot glue gun


First I cut off all the individual leaves from the garland.  Then I wrapped the wreath wire frame in green painter's tape.  It doesn't have to look fancy, I just wanted to have more square footage to adhere the glue/leaves to.


I was then ready to start gluing the leaves on the wreath.  I just did the best placement I could, and added leaves to bare areas once the entire wreath was covered.  I tried to place the leaves in different directions while also doing my best to cover the green tape.


It didn't take me very long to finish, I worked on it during an episode of Fixer Upper and finished before the show ended.  I bought the wire frame using a coupon and the garland was 50% off.  I had the glue and tape on hand so the total cost was less than $10!  Here is the finished product hanging on my front door.
