32 Spring Wreaths to Charm Up Your Front Door
That watering can has never looked so good!
Spring is here! The azaleas and hydrangeas are starting to bloom, and the temperatures are finally on the rise. As you’re sprucing up the yard and freshening up the front porch, don’t forget about your front door. Celebrate the season and welcome your guests with a beautiful spring wreath all abloom with happy color and seasonal favorites.
If you love an abundance of blooms, try filling a vintage funnel or watering can with colorful flowers. Want something that will last all season long? Head to the craft closet (with a quick stop by the kitchen) and get crafting on a wreath made from paper egg cartons or one made from cupcake liners. Want to get the kids involved? They will love lending a hand attaching faux butterflies to a wreath made from a boxwood garland or helping stick Peeps to a styrofoam wreath form (you might have to keep an eye on them, though, to make sure they don't eat their weight in sugar!).
Whether you are looking for something to adorn the front door or hang inside above the buffet in the dining room or over the mantel, there is a wreath idea here that we guarantee will inspire you. And while you’re at it, give your door itself a little spring spruce up with a new paint color.

A Bedecked Straw Hat Door Hanger
Tip your hat to the arrival of spring with a flower-bedecked straw brim.
To make: Shape a piece of floral chicken wire into a dome that fits snugly around one-third of the crown. Fill with damp floral foam and place a piece of wax floral tissue paper on the bottom.

Dogwoods in a Basket Wreath

Bike Basket Door Hanger
For a casual welcome, place damp floral foam in a vintage bike basket (this one is from Etsy) and tuck in chamomile clippings. With its petite white flowers with sunny centers, the herb feels as if it was just picked while pedaling by. To hang, hammer a nail into the door, then thread it through the basket’s weave.
Vintage Faucet Handle Wreath
With their fun colors and shapes, vintage outdoor metal faucet handles are perfect for a wreath.
To make: Start by loosely wrapping a wire wreath form in burlap ribbon. Bend 4-inch lengths of green floral wire into U shapes. Thread both ends of a wire piece through a handle, and poke through the ribbon, wrapping the wire pieces firmly around themselves to secure handles.
Wall Basket Wreath
Or, add texture with a woven vessel. The secret to a no-leak basket is to line it with brown craft paper and place floral foam in a zip-top bag before you arrange your flowers.

Install a metal grommet on the back of each rain boot. Loop a piece of burlap ribbon through grommets. Place a 3-inch-wide cylindrical vase in both boot heels; stabilize with tissue paper if needed. Fill vase with water and seasonal blooms. (We used a mix of hydrangeas and daisies.) Tie ends of ribbon together and hang on a nail.
Egg Carton Wreath
Made from the humble paper egg carton, this wreath will look spectacular displayed on a covered door or over the mantel.
To make: Cut individual egg cups from paper egg cartons. Notch and cut decorative edges with scissors. Dye or paint cups desired colors. Attach cups and craft paper leaves to a painted craft ring with hot-glue.
