Spooky-Cool Halloween Wreaths

I just love celebrating and decorating for each holiday, don't you!!?  I also love making simple crafts specific for holidays that are unique and just my style.  Today, I am sharing how I made these super-cute and very festive Halloween wreaths for my front doors.  I hope you enjoy the post!!

To make your spooky-cool wreath(s), you will need:

Dried grapevine wreaths

Assorted Halloween ribbon 

Black spray paint

Various faux Halloween flowers and foliage

Hot glue gun and glue sticks

Light-up Halloween wall decoration

Twist-ties

I began by spray-painting the grapevine wreath black.  Allow time for the wreath to dry completely.  

Next, you will affix the ribbon to your wreath.  I used two different ribbons to create my wreaths.  The first was a harlequin design, and the other is the a soft velvet ribbon in black.

I find that wired ribbon is the best ribbon to use when making bows.  The easiest way to make a bow is using a Bowdabra.

  

The use of the Bowdabra takes all of the guesswork out of making your bow loops even.  I used their twist and fold bow method.

You may see their tutorial via YouTube here: 

 

Use the twist ties to hold your bows together and also use twist ties to affix the ribbon bows to the wreath.  You may also dot a small amount of hot glue to the wreath and glue the ribbon directly onto the grapevine for additional sturdiness.  

Finally, glue foliage at varying places alongside the edge of your wreath.

I chose soft grey velvet pumpkins, dark green berry sprays, black roses, and soft grey caspia-like stems.  Here are some closeups of the detail.   

You will also note that when it is here on the pantry, you can clearly see the light-up art.  I really like these little plaques, they are super-cute!!
