Tips for Making Easter Wreath
Designing this DIY Easter Wreath is quick and easy, so why not make a few to give as gifts.
Where do you get the Buffalo Check Bunny and Carrots?
Great question! Well, you can grab the wooden bunnies and carrots off Amazon (all year round) and cover them with the plaid material that you can get at your local fabric store. But what I like to do is stalk the local dollar store a couple of months before Easter and grab up any wooden bunnies and fabric carrots and redo them in the plaid material.
How do I cut the flowers to fit the wreath?
When trimming the stems of flowers use wire cutters because they can get through the thick wire. But make sure that your cutter is sharp, otherwise, you’ll be out of luck.
How much hot glue should I be using?
Make sure you’re using generous amounts of hot glue to keep things in place and looking good. It won’t be as cute if items start falling off or don’t stay put at all. Keep an eye out for strings of hot glue- they tend to go everywhere so it’s best just to take look over your project before hanging it up or giving it to someone.

- Using hot glue, add a few strips to the carrots and then add
on top of the pink flowers, I did two carrots on the bottom and then the one on top. - Next add a generous amount of hot glue to the wooden bunny and add to the grapevine wreath filling in gaps with the hot glue to make sure that it adheres to the grapevines.
