Today I’m going to share how to make an easy artificial natural spring wreath with you. As many of you know, I love making a wreath when a new season is coming.
I must say I have a love of wreaths and mentioned this before. I have been making these since I was a teenager. Because I have enjoyed making a wreath often my skills got better and better after each wreath. And this is why I enjoy making wreaths for our home and sharing these with you, my readers.
The more we make what we truly enjoy we learn how adding elements to a wreath works best.
Where Do I Store My Wreaths
Storing My Wreaths
Luckily for us, we have a very large basement with shelves and plastic containers for great storage. I store some in containers and others we hang from the shelf itself using a wreath hanger or the ribbon I hang it from in our home.
Do I Use My Wreaths Again?
Do I Hang My Wreaths Again?
Absolutely, I make these so I have a variety of choices to choose from for different seasons. I also change a wreath in a different spot every time I add these to our decor.
So, it should be no surprise I made a new spring wreath using natural elements because I’m often drawn to nature.
I have added these to a spring and a summer wreath as well as fall and Christmas wreaths and I always share high-quality materials with my readers.
By the way, this is what I love about the wreaths I make. These work for fall, Christmas as well as winter. I try to design a wreath that will work for multiple seasons too. This is a great budget saver and we all watch our spending. So, be sure to take a look at these wreath ideas!
And yes, these are cheaper to make than purchasing a new wreath.
Supplies for This Artificial Spring Wreath
- grapevine garlands or a grapevine wreath
- 2 artificial pussy willows – I have these and they have a VERY realistic look and can be used for outdoor spaces.
- fake small eggs
- natural spotted feathers – these are truly a thing of beauty
- hot glue gun
- heavy gauge floral wire
- wire cutters
Making An Oval Shape With The Grapevine Garland
Step 1: Make An Oval Shape With The Garland
First, I tried to wrap the garland around my arm to make my oval shape. I immediately realized my arm width wasn’t big enough. So, my husband wrapped the grapevine around his arm. This gave me a delicate circle of branches for my spring wreath.
So then, I added the wire to the grapevine which is the perfect way to keep the shape tight.
Adding Pussy Willows To My Artificial Wreath With Hot Glue
Step 2: Begin Adding Pieces of Pussy Willows
So next, cut pussy willows and added a dot of hot glue so these stay attached to the wreath. Also, because these are weather resistant this wreath can hang on a front door.
Also, I cut these stems a bit short because I find it easier to add the grapevine.
After adding these I begin to add moss in spots that I love for the spring season.
You can see how much I love moss for the warmer months with this easy topiary in pots I made last year. This is a great project to add to the home, especially for the warmer months.

Adding The Feathers And Moss To My Wreath
Step 3: Adding The Spotted Feathers And Feathers To My Project
Here I begin to add the feathers to my natural wreath. I also added these to the top of the wreath so they add a bit of dimension around the lace ribbon. I adore adding elegant touches like lace ribbon to natural pieces. This takes minutes to add with a bit of glue.
Final Addition To Make This Beautiful Wreath
Step 4: Last Addition To This Spring Project
Lastly, I add fake eggs in ivory and a robin’s egg blue to add to the spring feel of this wreath. Again a little bit of hot glue and you are all set.
At this point, I took a step back to make sure my spring wreath was looking how I envisioned. So then, I felt it need more pussy willows. So, I cut small pieces and added a bit of hot glue, and placed them to fill the wreath in more.
Honestly, this happens. No worries it is extremely easy to add to the wreath and nothing moved.
I hope you enjoyed seeing how to make an easy artificial natural spring wreath and make one for your home. I hope to inspire my readers to make these quick and easy crafts.

Love the oval shape and adorable pussy willows. Oh so sweet little polka dot feathers and eggs. Glad to see you back Cindy. Pinned!
Thanks Debra. It’s been a tough beginning of 2023 for our household.
Just finished sorting my faux flowers and foliage and put aside a bag of flowers I can use for my spring/ Easter wreath. I purchased a plain very pretty fern wreath I will use as a base and add some colored eggs and tulips/lilacs ect to this and hang with a pretty green ribbon on our front door in April to replace the forsythia one I use for March. Such fun to decorate for different seasons without spending a fortune. Love your pussywillow ,egg and feather wreath.
Love saving money too. Your wreath sounds like it’s going to be a beauty.
