Boxwood wreaths are a classy decoration that you can DIY on the cheap! Most of the supplies were purchased from the dollar store so the actual cost was $12. Here’s what you need.

Supplies:

  • 14-inch wire wreath form
  • Burlap ribbon
  • Black and white check ribbon
  • 8 Boxwood picks
  • Zip ties
  • Hot Glue Gun
  • Wire Cutters

Instructions:

Using the wire cutters, start by cutting the stems of the boxwood. You want to leave a few inches of the stem so you have enough to be secured by the zip ties.

Fasten two stem pieces to the center of the wreath form with zip ties.

Spread the stems out so the boxwood covers the other wreath rings. Repeat this process around the entire wreath. You will want to fill in empty or space spaces in the wreath. I did this by using zip ties to fasten some stems to the inner or outer ring of the wreath form.

Take a 6-inch piece of burlap ribbon and wrap it around itself 3 full times.

Next, fold a 10-inch piece of burlap ribbon in its center and place it on the backside of the folded burlap ribbon piece. (The backside would be the side with the ending piece you cut). Secure all of this with a zip tie in the center.

Use a 5-inch piece of black and white checkered ribbon about 5 inches long to cover the zip tie in the middle of the bow and tie it in the back.

Slide a zip tie through the black and white ribbon in the back to secure it to the wreath form.

Congratulations on a job well done and a beautiful piece of decor.
