Spring Moss and Butterfly Wreath Supplies:
- Grapevine wreath
- Butterflies in two different sizes
- Moss
- Wide plaid ribbon
- Hot glue gun and glue sticks
- Puffy paint
- Matte craft paint
- Fine glitter
Directions to Make a Spring Moss and Butterfly Wreath:
Paint the Butterflies:
Begin by painting the butterflies to add a pop of flight and texture to your wreath. Apply a heavy coat of puffy paint to create a 3D effect. Once dry, layer two coats of matte white paint, sprinkling a touch of fine glitter while the paint is still wet for a subtle sparkle.
Prepare the Wreath Base:
Take the grapevine wreath and carefully tuck moss into various sections, ensuring even coverage and a natural appearance. Use hot glue to secure the moss in place, lifting sections of the wreath and applying glue as needed.
Attach the Butterflies:
With the moss in place, it’s time to add the butterflies. The butterflies typically come attached to wire, so simply apply hot glue to the wire ends and position them along the wreath, spacing them unevenly for a more organic look. Leave a space in the center where the bow will be placed.
Create the Bow:
Crafting a beautiful bow is essential for adding a charming finishing touch to your wreath.
- Cut a 4-foot section of ribbon, leaving about 12 inches as a tail.
- Make four loops of equal size and arrange them on your work surface with two loops on each side.
- Secure the loop ends with hot glue at the center, ensuring they remain intact when the ribbon is tied.
- Take another 12-inch length of ribbon and tie it tightly around the center of the bow, knotting it at the back and tucking the ends underneath.
- Fluff up the bow loops and attach it to the bottom of the wreath using hot glue. T
- rim the ribbon ends into an inverted V shape for a polished look.
As we eagerly await the arrival of spring, there’s no better way to usher in the season than with a charming DIY wreath.
