    How to Make a DIY Magnolia Wreath (Video)

    Published: Mar 31, 2017 by Christina Dennis · This post may contain affiliate links · This blog generates income via ads · 1 Comment

    You might have seen these floating around TV and the internet; they've become a farmhouse decor staple. You can use these on a front door, on a headboard, or featured over an old window. What is it? It's the beautiful magnolia wreath, of course! I wanted to try my hand at making a DIY version of a magnolia wreath, and I was pleasantly surprised with how my attempt worked. This handmade magnolia wreath is beautiful, and it only costs a fraction of the cost of one you'd find in a store or online.

    How to make a DIY magnolia wreath

    To make this DIY magnolia wreath, you'll need:

    • 3 large faux magnolia stems (mine were given to me by afloral.com)
    • grapevine wreath
    • glue gun
    • wire cutters

    How to make a DIY magnolia wreath

    To begin, gather your faux magnolia stems and cut off all of the individual leaves.

    Leave a little bit of stem on the bottom of the leaves to help secure them later to the wreath.

    Place and then glue your magnolia leaves onto the grapevine wreath with a hot glue gun. I worked in rows of 3 leaves each, overlapping each row by 1 - 2 inches. Sometimes the center leaf was on top of the two side leaves in the row, and sometimes it was on the bottom - this gave my wreath a random but pleasing look.

    Tuck the final row of leaves under your first row. Add dots of hot glue under any wayward leaves to keep them in place.
