So I’ve been using the same DIY Fall wreath for years. I made it at least 10 years ago, and every year, I perk it up a little by adding something new. Last year it was burlap. I still like it a lot, but this Fall, I had the itch to make something entirely new. Since my usual Fall wreath is full of color, I decided to go a different route. That way, I can switch them up from year to year for a different look.

And, here’s this year’s Fall wreath!

It lacks all that traditional Fall color, but makes up for it in natural texture from the grapevine, dried leaves, and a variety of burlap ribbons. The glittery sunflowers add a bit of fun.

I’m a huge fan of sunflowers, so when I found this fun twist on them at Michaels, I knew I had to have them. I mean, seriously, burlap + sparkles in a SUNFLOWER? Um, I’m thinking this might be how sunflowers look in heaven.

I’ll be adding some other Fall decor to the front porch in the coming days or week, which I’ll share when it all comes together! With 3 small kiddos, my seasonal decorating adventures have to happen in stages these days. Gone are the days when I could spend hours on the front porch playing around with boxes of potential decor. If it’s gonna happen at all, it has to be in baby steps!

Have a fun weekend.
