Hurry! Create a Natural DIY Moss Wreath in Minutes!

 
 
 

Step 1: Prep Your Supplies and Cut the Moss Strips 

 
First, lay out your craft supplies, sheet moss, wreath, and scissors. Originally, I planned to use this straw wreath for another craft project but I didn't, hence why it is painted brown. Cut your strip of moss. I cut each strip of moss approximately four inches wide.
Pro Tip: If you choose to use a wire. Wrap the wreath frame with burlap ribbon. Add a little bit of hot glue to the end of the ribbon and hold it to set. Wrap the wire wreath frame and a dot of hot glue to the other end. Hold it to set.

Step 2: Wrapping the Wreath with Strips of Moss

 

Take the first strip of moss and carefully remove the backing. Sticky moss is extremely sticky, I wanted to share that little bit of information, so it may stick to your fingers. No worries, just lightly pull and it comes right off. The best part this moss is so sticky there's no need for glue when using a straw wreath.  Add the moss strip to the and smooth each section. Save any extra pieces. These will be added to the wreath to fill the bare spots.

Pro Tip: If you are using a foam wreath form, I recommend using a low-temperature setting and adding a little bit of hot glue before adding each strip of moss. The strips of moss will not stick to a foam wreath. This is where my crafting comes in handy. I have done this with foam in the past for another easy project. The strips of moss came off. So, learn from my mistakes. My job is to share this information, so your craft projects work well.

Step 3: Working with Self-Stick Moss - No Glue Needed!

 

The next step is optional; however, it adds a perfect touch and rustic charm to the wreath. After gathering small sticks from our backyard, I broke them into small pieces and added a little bit of glue to each stick to make a small nest. This is an easy way to incorporate more natural elements into the wreath. Add a small feather for the final perfect touch. Feel free to add small silk flowers or strips of jute twine or leave your wreath plain. Babies breathe or small rose buds are also an easy way to add a little bit of nature.
 
Cindy's Note: I forgot to take a picture removing the backing of the moss. This photo is from another project. Take a look at how to make a plate wreath damage free! It's a DIY wreath project!
