Supplies for Creating Your Own DIY Wreaths
While each tutorial here uses different supplies, there are a few basics that you will see again and again. If you craft regularly, you might find it helpful to keep supplies like glue guns, wreath forms, faux stems and floral wire on hand.
My favorite one-stop shop for wreath supplies is probably Michaels. I like being able to check out the faux florals in person and choose what looks the most realistic. Hobby Lobby also carries a great selection of faux blooms with frequent 50% off sales. If you prefer to shop online, Amazon is a good option.
Wreath Forms
There are lots of different wreath forms to start with. Choose from grapevine, metal forms, metal floral hoops, embroidery hoops, and even straw wreath forms.
Florals and Greenery
You can find realistic faux greenery and florals many places these days. I like to shop Amazon, Michaels, Afloral, Hobby Lobby, and sometimes Target for faux stems.
Other Tools
Depending on the tutorial you choose, you might need floral wire, wire cutters, and/or a hot glue gun. As for storing your creations, wreath storage bags and boxes are handy.
