Make an easy DIY peel-and-stick preserved moss wreath that works from spring through summer in the home! Did you ever try self-stick moss? It’s amazing and saves so much time!
Do you love easy quick projects? This wreath takes 15 minutes.
I love using moss for spring. In my opinion, moss is the epitome of the spring season beginning. I use reindeer moss often too to add accents to other wreaths I have made.
Think about adding moss around plants, succulent cuttings, or in the corner of a picture frame with a bird’s nest. Also, adding a Robbins egg inside says warmer seasons are on their way too.
Before sharing this moss wreath let me answer a couple of questions.
What is Supermoss and What’s it Used for?
So, What is Super Moss and the Uses
Super moss adds a fresh look around plants. It’s also perfect to use outdoors in hanging baskets. Did you know that? Since we don’t ordinarily use hanging pots I had no idea and think this is a great idea.
Hmmm, maybe this will look pretty in the urn on our front porch this spring. What do you think about this idea? I’d love an opinion, especially from an avid gardener.
How Did I Come Up With This Idea?
Coming Up With This Wreath Idea
So while checking my craft supplies I realized I had self-stick moss. I also noticed this straw wreath frame. I painted this brown for another project and because I didn’t use it so it’s perfect for this easy craft.
Supplies Needed:
- wreath form
- self-stick supermoss Michaels stores, Hobby Lobby, or Amazon
- scissors
- glue gun and glue sticks: optional
How To Make an Easy DIY Moss Wreath
Step 1: Laying the Moss and Straw Wreath Out to Measure
First, lay the moss and wreath out.
I namely did this, so I was able to measure and cut my sheet moss. So then, I cut the strips of moss and wrapped them around the wreath.
Step 2: Wrapping the Wreath with the Moss Sheets
Next, I began wrapping the wreath. Now, peel the backing off the strip of moss. Incidentally, this moss is very sticky.
Because the moss is so sticky I wound up not having to add hot glue. How awesome is that? So, I recommend buying this exact moss for this wreath.
By the way, you will want to save the leftover moss because it will fill in the bare spots.
You may want to read this bird nest to make the nest shown on the wreath. You will also learn how to make the frame behind the wreath too. It takes minutes and it’s FREE from the yard!
Here’s a wreath you may like if time is an issue that’s similar for you to purchase.
One last note, if you look through at pictures of our home you will see the wreaths I make used over and over again in different areas of our home. I share these wreaths because they last and can be used for multiple seasons in our home.
I hope you enjoyed learning how to make an easy DIY peel and stick preserved moss wreath. Do you enjoy adding moss to your home? Will you add easy pretty moss wreaths to your home? I’d love to know your thoughts and let me know your thoughts about adding moss to our urns during the planting season!
Cindy I love this wreath! The sticks are the perfect touch for a spring wreath. I love the little feather too… makes me think of birds, nests and all things Spring. Thanks for hosting the Spring hop!
Oh my goodness this turned out adorable! I love it. I have been thinking of doing a moss wreath but wasn’t sure how to start. Thank you for the inspiration.
I didn’t realize self-stick moss was a thing! I can see how it would make this project a lot easier than using hot glue everywhere. And I like the stick frame!
Such a gorgeous wreath, Cindy! Using the self-stick moss was definitely a genius idea. Love your stick frame and your nest embellishment. It’s super cute! Hugs and thanks so much for including me on this blog hop, CoCo
Love the moss wreath!
So pretty! Moss is perfect for Spring, and I like that it covers the wreath form so well!
What a cute idea! I love how you added the frame around the wreath, too. It’s so pretty! I haven’t seen the peel and stick moss yet. But I’ll be looking for it!
Cindy what a great wreath to have in a spring home. I love the self stick moss sheets so easy to work with. Adding the twig frame topped the whole look. Love how you have it styled as well. Happy Spring my friend.
Thank you Terrie and I agree framing it with the stick frame was a great finishing touch
Such a sweet wreath, Cindy! I love how you decorated it with the frame! You’ve inspired me to bring out the moss wreath I made in one of our challenges last year!
Bring it out my friend and maybe the snow will stop
I love the bright green moss–it just shouts “SPRING!” You displayed it beautifully, too! Pinned.

PS. I’d love it if you’d share this at my link party, Sundays on Silverado, which is open now. 🌷
Thanjs Niky and moss screams spring for me too.
Yay for wreaths. Spring is in the air!!! This one looks so sweet hung on your old vintage piece too. Happy Wednesday. xoxo
Happy Wednesday Kris. Can you believe 45 today for the high? Let the snow melting begin
I love your mossy wreath, Cindy! Funny, when I made my moss balls last year, the back was lightly sticky but really sticky would work great for many projects!! Enjoy your pretty wreath and thanks for inviting us to the hop. 🙂
I’ll look for your project for SYS for next week,
Hugs,
Barb 🙂
