Welcome to our little corner of joy and creativity, where we transform simple materials into beautiful décor that brings life to our homes. We’re thrilled to share our latest project with you: a vibrant DIY Spring Daisy Wreath. Over the past 17 years, we have poured our hearts into the art of wreath-making, turning seasonal inspirations into masterpieces that radiate warmth and happiness.
This journey has been filled with laughter, a sprinkle of glue, and the deep satisfaction of crafting beautiful pieces that not only adorn our homes but also bring us joy. During this time, we’ve come to realize that crafting is about more than just creating something pretty; it’s about bringing people together, sharing stories, and celebrating creativity.
For this DIY wreath, we aim to capture the essence of spring with cheerful yellow daisies and the super-popular bead grass. Imagine walking through a meadow on a bright spring morning, and you’ll get the sense of what we’re crafting today.
What You’ll Need to Create This Daisy Wreath
- 14″ Grapevine Wreath Base: This is your sturdy canvas, offering a rustic and natural look that meshes beautifully with the bright florals.
- Artificial Yellow Daisies (Gerbera): These sunny blooms are the highlight, bringing warmth and a splash of color to your creation.
- White and Yellow Filler Flowers: These add layers and texture, creating depth and interest in the design.
- Bead Grass (also known as Sawgrass or Button Fern): This whimsical greenery from Hobby Lobby complements the daisies perfectly. It adds a light, airy feel to the wreath.
- Two 1.5″ Wired Ribbons: Choose whatever colors and patterns you love. Here are some tips and tricks for making beautiful bows!
- Tools: You’ll need a hot glue gun—our Grace Monroe Home Glue Skillet works wonders here! Wire cutters are essential for snipping the ends of stems and ribbons, and 26 guage floral wire.

Step-by-Step Instructions for Making a Spring Daisy Wreath
- Make the Bow: Begin by making a bow with your chosen wired ribbons. You can go here for a quick and easy hand tied bow tutorial. We attach it at the top center of your wreath—the 12:00 position. This bow serves as an eye-catching focal point, adding a flare of sophistication and whimsy to your wreath.
- Layer on the Greenery: Lay the groundwork by weaving bead grass or chosen greenery around the wreath’s top half. The greenery lays the foundation for your flowers, transforming your wreath into a lush canvas. Be generous with your hot glue, ensuring each piece is firmly in place.
- Add the Large Daisies: Position your artificial yellow daisies, spreading them around the upper portion of the wreath. Their bright and colorful flowers signify the joy and renewal of spring.
- Filling with Wildflowers: Nestle white and yellow filler flowers between your daisies. These small wildflowers create texture and depth, rounding out your design with a lush, full look reminiscent of a spring garden in full bloom.
- Perfecting the Design: Take a moment to admire your creation from afar. This is your chance to make any final adjustments. Ensure each element feels balanced and secure, adding more glue or re-positioning as necessary for aesthetic balance.
In this spring design, your wreath focuses on the upper half, wih about 2/3 lushly decorated, leaving the bottom portion of the grapevine exposed. This reveals the lovely, rustic texture that keeps a link to nature and simplicity.
