The calendar says it’s officially fall and it’s time to share my first fall post of the season! The weather has been so cold this month and it’s felt like fall for while!
A few of my blogging friend (thanks to Jen from Noting Grace) and I are sharing some fall (and other home décor) DIYs’ today! There’s an assortment of beautiful things you can create and be sure to check them all out at the end of my post! If you’re stopping by from Amy at Cuter Tudor, welcome! Aren’t those little succulents absolutely adorable in her pumpkins!?
I’m sharing a very simple DIY. Sometimes, some crafts or DIYs are so easy that you feel they’re not worth sharing. But I know from the past that my readers enjoy simple diy’s, like this farmhouse banner or this super easy way to update Christmas decor, and so therefore I’m sharing these darling little wreaths today!
It all started when I bought some tobacco baskets and wanted a couple little wreaths for the inside of them. I found ones I really liked at Joanne’s but I didn’t want to spend $16 so I thought I’d wait and see what I could make.
Last year I found this garland at the thrift store and I used it on our piano in our fall home tour. This year when I decorated for fall I didn’t really have a place for it and before tucking it back into my storage containers I realized I could make mini wreaths from it.
I wound the garland in a circle with a width of 8″ and using my favorite wire crafting cutters I cut the garland. Since the garland is wire, I just twisted the ends together and that was it! Too easy, right!?
So next time you see a garland at the thrift store or even on clearance in a month or so, remember they can be made into mini wreaths!
Be sure to head over to Areeba from Mint Candy Designs and see her beautiful bed tray! I’d love to make my own!
Thanks so much for stopping by today friends and I’ll be back Friday for a peek at our fall home decor!!

Thank you, Kelly! Appreciate you stopping by!
This is super cute! I love how inexpensive it is but also stunning!
Thanks so much, Areeba! So glad to be on this blog hop with you!
What a simple yet really festive wreath! It instantly made me think, “I could do that” 🙂 This one was definitely worth sharing. Take care.
Awww… thanks so much Stacey! I second guessed whether I should share it and appreciate your comments so much!!
These are amazing Kendra! Love the fall colors and it looks so cute with that tobacco basket.
Thanks so much, Taylor!! I kinda have an addiction to tobacco baskets and thought lil wreaths would look cute in these! So glad you stopped by!
It’s absolutely perfect Kendra! What a brilliant idea and I love how simple it was to make!
Thanks so much, Kristi! I think we all crave simplicity! Always appreciate your comments! xo
Love simple DIYs! This looks perfect hanging in front of the rustic tobacco basket.
Me too, Jamie! Too often I make it complicated but this garland was perfect for the wreaths I was looking for! (And I still remember when you did a tobacco basket tutorial and I knew I needed one (or more!) of them!)
I love how you made these wreaths! So genius!
Thank you, Jordan! Sometimes the simplest DIYs are my favorites! Thanks for stopping by!
These are really pretty!
Thank you, Stacey! Have a great weekend!
That is ingenious! Perfect idea for a DIY in a quick sec. Definitely pinning this one for later!
Thanks so much, Jen! I think we all like quick DIYs every now and then! Thank you for stopping by! xo
Hi Kendra, I love your ideas and even better is that you’re a Canadian too, actually living in Canada! I live in Eastern Ontario on the border of Quebec. I’d love it if you could include where you buy or find your items for decorating. I use a lot of a Dollar store., Dollartree items as well as thrift store things I find to turn into new items. For instance, where did you find your tobacco basket? Many of the decor blogs I’ve followed give websites to American online stores. Obviously there’s the duty and shipping costs to consider which sometimes don’t make it worth buying. If we could get some of these items in Canada, that would be great.
So happy to have a fellow Canadian stopping by, Tracy! And love thrift store finds as well… making them “new” again is one of my favorites!! I totally understand wanting things but then seeing they’re always from American sites. I actually got the tobacco baskets from Hobby Lobby in the US though– 😉 ! I really enjoy shopping in the States, but only if I find great deals/sales! I’ll try and share more of my Canadian finds on here! Thanks SO much for stopping by! xo
