Farmhouse Wreath DIY
Grab a few floral supplies, set aside about an hour or two depending on your skill level, and you can create a wreath just like this.
You will need a 18 inch grapevine wreath. Cotton bolls, eucalyptus leaves, a silk flower or two, glittered daisy, and a couple of sprays with white balls on them.
- Remember to start by making, and adding your wired hanger to the back. Or opt to use a wreath door hanger if not going onto a wall.
I really think the cotton bolls add that farmhouse feel to the wreath. You can carefully take apart the bunch placing them throughout your wreath.
The traditional Joanna Gaines Farmhouse style wreaths are made with Magnolia leaves. You can start with a pre made Magnolia wreath, and add your other floral supplies to it if you prefer. Note, the same vender has magnolia leaf garlands. You can even hang them without decorating them if you like a really simple look.

You can grab cotton bolls occasionally at the craft store, or pick a spray, swag, and even wreath off Amazon, and with Prime pay no shipping.
Other supplies that are nice for filler are dried bleached white babies breath (a cheaper alternative is artificial baby’s breath but, it has a very different look ). I don’t know the name of the white big berries, these are the closest thing to the white berries I could find online but, they are smaller. They come in bunches, and could work.
Another thing I love that would work are lotus pods. They are super pretty in wreaths.
Tips for sourcing floral supplies: Besides Amazon I occasionally check the clearance area at the craft store, and if visiting the city stop by floral supply centers.
