I needed a new wreath for our front door, and wanted to go with something light & airy for spring through summer. I ended up mixing faux air plants with seashells we’ve collected at the beach on a disk style wreath. I made the wreath for $25—its modern and fresh, and something I can keep up from now through the end of August.
When I design a new wreath I go to a craft store and wander around for an hour. I lay out options on the floor of the store until I’m happy with the general look and price point of the supplies. Then when I get home I lay everything out and play around with the design until it has the feel I want!

In North Carolina the mornings are cool and wonderfully Autumn-esque. All my nearby neighbors have added Fall wreaths to their front doors, and mine still had the magnolia wreath I made in March. It was time for a new wreath, and as always--it needed to be EASY! Because I am a lazy crafter.
I designed this wreath on a whim in Hobby Lobby last weekend. I love the combination of green fern (modern), wood berries, and cotton (touch of Southern). The wreath colors hint of Fall without using traditional pinecones or pumpkins. This wreath is small-budget friendly (I made it for under $20) and easy to customize. And if I forget to swap it out in November, I can stick some cinnamon sticks in it and make it a bit more Christmas-like!

I love a good seasonal wreath on my front door, but like many of you I don't have $40+ dollars to spend each season! So when I spotted a lonely looking $6 pinecone wreath at the thrift store a few weeks ago, I knew it just needed a little sprucing up to make it look fresh and add a natural touch.
Read MoreHow to Make a Modern Faux-Succulent Wreath
Do you put wreaths on your front door? I grew up in the Southeast (Beaufort, South Carolina and later near Savannah, Georgia) and wreaths on the front door are just about as polite as offering iced sweet tea to unexpected visitors. They symbolize a cheerful "hello!" to guests.
I made a cotton wreath for Charlotte Home+Garden in December, and later a copper heart wreath (that stayed on our front door wayyyy past Valentine's Day!). This time I wanted to add something that could stay out in the spring and summer months. Modern but still welcoming.
I happened across faux succulents at Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago and knew they would work perfectly for the project! Read below for the supply list and a simple tutorial!
