Use this step-by-step tutorial to learn how to create this beautiful Christmas tree wreath. You won’t believe how simple and fun this design is to make and decorate! Laurie, from Unique in the Creek, is going to demonstrate her tutorial for us in a video.
Fun Facts About Laurie
If you don’t know Laurie, here are some fun facts about her.
She:
- is the proud mother of 3 children and 2 fur babies.
- started inventing these boards over 5 years ago which was introduced in the US in April of 2018.
- has a favorite saying: “Creativity is contagious…pass it on.”
Watch Her Video Tutorial Below:
Supplies Needed to Make a Christmas Tree Wreath- UITC Triangle board
- (66) 18 lb zip ties 6-8 inch in length
- 1.5 rolls of 10”x 10 yard Decomesh (I am using a foiled red and green stripe)
- Wire cutter and/or zip tie gun
- Scissors
- Embellishments to decorate tree (optional)
Wondering what embellishments to use on your wreath? Add whatever you like! I’ll be using a light-up sign and a tree bow.
You can decorate with ornaments
, ribbons, greenery picks…whatever you want.
Use a fun bow for the top of your tree; however, you can also use a star, angel, ornament… whatever suits your needs.
Christmas Tree Wreath InstructionsUse this detailed step-by-step guide to create your own Christmas tree wreath!
Step 1
Pre-load all sets of holes closed on the board. There is 65 sets of holes.
Step 2
After your board is pre-loaded, you will need to cut deco mesh, poly jute, poly burlap, or whatever you like. Cut 65 pieces to 9×10”. That will be about 1.5 10 yard rolls.
Step 3
Once completed, you will take your mesh, place it in front of you, and turn it into a diamond shape with the curl side up. Take the corner and roll from one corner to the opposite corner.
When you’re rolling you don’t need to roll them too tight…but try for the same thickness throughout.
Step 4
After your piece of mesh is rolled, you’re going to fold that piece of mesh in half with both ends pointing in the same direction. Make sure each side of the folded pieces are the same length.
Step 5
Take that folded end of the mesh and place it into the zip tie on the bottom row.
It doesn’t matter if you start on the right or left side of the board. Just put that folded end into the zip tie about a half an inch in and zip it up nice and tight. Do this for the whole row.
Step 6
Once you have all your pieces placed and secured in that row, cut off all the zip tie tails.
For the edge/side pieces you want to make sure your Deco mesh is slightly turned, laying along the contour of the side of the board.
Step 7
Continue on each row doing the exact same instructions as above. Keep doing this all the way to row number 1.
You don’t have to use all the same mesh you can intermingle different meshes and/or different colors. A really nice example would be to use alternating lighter and darker greens.
Step 8
When you’ve completed adding the deco mesh, adding the hanger is your last step.
Your hanging holes are the chamfered or beveled holes in row one. Place a zip tie, a piece of twine, or ribbon, or anything else you want to use as a hanger.
Now the fun part begins with decorating your Christmas tree. I kept this one very simple by just adding a light-up sign that I had in stock as well as a fun ribbon bow tree topper I made and called it done!

DIY Christmas wreath: 66 photo ideas on how to make a DIY Christmas wreath
The first Christmas wreath was made from an ordinary wheel and decorated with needles and candles - according to the number of weeks left until the holiday. Every Sunday, the children burned the next candle and counted when the long-awaited Christmas would come. The tradition with candles is a thing of the past, but we have not stopped decorating the interior with a festive wreath. In anticipation of an imminent miracle, we create a festive atmosphere with our own hands - we are inspired by ideas, we learn how to make a New Year's wreath on the door with our own hands.
H. Jourdain, La tête dans les idées
1. Colored paper
This New Year's wreath is reminiscent of the traditional Christmas version of holly with decorative berries. It is made on a cardboard base with a glue gun: for the petals you will need pink, red, orange, burgundy and gold paper. Berries can be rolled up from cotton wool or paper. Or maybe use already "cut" colored stickers?

2. Cut paper
The same idea as with holly, only instead of relying on bright curly leaves - music paper and large, simple petals. Stick them tightly on top of each other and assemble the wreath using double-sided tape. The main thing in this case is that a beautiful volume will be obtained only from a large number of petals. We'll have to get rid of more than one solfeggio album.
Julie Murray
3. Notes in volume
Decorators love to experiment with notes, but in fact, any monochrome paper with an unobtrusive pattern is suitable for interior decoration. Fold the music sheets into bags, connect the paper elements with glue or a stapler.
Eva Yáñez
4. Clothespins and beads
Another inexpensive and easy way to make a wreath with your own hands is to fix wooden clothespins on a wire circle, discharging them with beads. Clothespins can be painted or decorated with decorative tape.
5. New Year's bobbin wreath
As it turned out, you can make a door decoration with your own hands from anything - bobbins, unused felt-tip pens, pencils, pens, oblong spools with colored threads. In other words, any objects of bright color and oblong shape.
Cut out a circle from cardboard and start gluing onto the base with a gun. For reliability, secure the parts with additional wire or thin elastic bands.
Stephanie Woody
6. Ribbon as fastener
We attach the New Year's wreath using a decorative ribbon that we hang on a hook. We fix the loop with a decorative button, and attach the decoration to the ribbon with double-sided tape.
The Happy Home Blog
7. Ribbons and Buttons
Stitch a soft base like you would for a pillow, and stuff it with cotton, leftover yarn, unwanted old knits or knitwear, pieces of an old fur coat or fur. Synthetic substitutes from the nearest needlewomen store are also suitable - traditional synthetic winterizer, foam rubber, synthetic yarn or fabric. And even old tights and socks. But on top there should be a very beautiful, pleasant to the touch fabric - decorate it with ribbons and buttons.
If you want to make a fragrant wreath, stuff it with dry herbs, needles, juniper cones and berries.
Agnes Blum
8. Yarn, lace, fabric flowers
Making a Christmas wreath on the door with your own hands is very simple. We wrap the cardboard frame with thick or thin colored yarn, decorate with ribbons and fabric decorative elements.
You can even organize a wreath making workshop with your friends and neighbors: easy, fun and fast!
Silver Spoon
9. Yarn + fabric brooches
The first step is to wind the yarn on cardboard. To make a contrasting ornament, we wrap the shape, following the sequence of the pattern, or embroider with a contrasting thread. It remains to decorate the New Year crafts with fabric brooches and a pair of beads.
Lisa Atkinson Photographer
10. Pompoms
Do you want to make a wreath on the door with your own hands? Just sew the pom-poms together. Each pom-pom will take quite a lot of yarn: you have a chance to use up absolutely all the “leftovers” and balls that have accumulated over the year. And for those who do not have time to cut yarn, in needlework stores you can find a dozen or two ready-made pompoms, already laid out in bags.

11. Fabric and snowflakes… from plywood
An elegant and unusual version of the New Year's wreath: cut out a circle from the fabric and process the cut with braid. Using a glue gun, glue the snowflakes to the base.
Tip: Wooden plywood snowflakes can be replaced with lace snowflakes.

12. Lavrushka Christmas wreath
To create this decoration, you will need laurel branches, Christmas decorations (in our case, balls) and decorative details - stars and hearts, which can be cut out of foam or made from salt dough and painted.

13. Wish with wishes
New Year's decor from spruce branches can be decorated . These can be door linings and antique keys (as in the photo), jewelry - bracelets, beads and voluminous earrings; as an option - cutlery, key rings, children's toys - Lego or Kinder figures.
The decoration is attached to the wall with a large red ribbon, and the items are tied with small red ribbons (red symbolizes "wish fulfillment").
Julie Ranee Photography
14. Framed wreath
When making your own Christmas wreaths, don't forget about the frame effect. This photo shows how you can create an interesting composition from simple details. Place a New Year's wreath of pine needles in the frame instead of the picture. And hang it on the window sash handle.
Z Gallerie
15. Peacock feathers
Another quick way to make a Christmas wreath is to use natural feathers. Cut out a cardboard circle, then wrap it with a garland. Hide most of the garland in decorative feathers (glue them in succession with a gun).
Tip: You can do the same with beautiful voluminous scarves or bright women's scarves. Please note - the garland should not heat up.
Terrain
16. Willow twigs
Another interior composition - bare twigs look great on their own against a white wall. A little trick on how to make a New Year's wreath with your own hands: soak the branches, otherwise they will break without bending.

17. Hanging balls
A Christmas wreath made of pine needles can be made more interesting by decorating it with golden, brown and black balls on long hangers.

You can even make an unusual version of a wreath from tangerines and a dish. Use wicker fruit bowls with large holes. Put tangerines and fruits in them. Decorate with live plants, which will require a floral sponge. Decor with a New Year's mood is ready!

20. Buttercup flowers
Bright flowers can be woven into a Christmas wreath made from fresh leaves, such as laurel. To make the decoration last longer, it is better to take high-quality artificial flowers.
PollyPapier
21. Green plants
To create the wreath in the photo, the author needed a thin iron hanger (they give out dry-cleaner's clothes) and evergreens. In our climate, you can use greens from flower shops or cut off overgrown ampelous plants.
Using a hammer, shape the hanger to the desired shape, attach the plants with thin (or special floristic - can be bought at any flower shop) wire.

23. Cotton or cotton imitation
Fans of eco-style will love the idea of a Christmas wreath made from natural materials or their imitation. Dried twigs, branches and roots, cones and acorns, nuts and chestnuts, as well as their shells, evergreens, dry herbs and straw that stood all autumn in a vase, dried and artificial berries, decorative pumpkins, bark and birch bark, as well as citrus peel - natural color and dyed, flat and rolled. We fasten everything with glue and wire.
24. Tree bark
This wreath is easy to make for those who have a wood-burning stove in their country house or at home. After chopping firewood, there are always a lot of bars and peeled bark. From these leftovers you can make quite a Christmas decoration.

25. Artificial snow
To make a snow spray, dip the branches for several days in a strong saline solution. You can spread them with PVA glue and dip them into semolina or grate the foam. The easiest option is to buy artificial snow in the form of a spray in the store and sprinkle on the wreath.

On the eve of the New Year, the hands themselves are trying to make something festive and beautiful! Make a Christmas wreath! There is nothing complicated in the manufacturing process, and home-made original decoration will delight any holiday in a row! We tell you how to make a New Year's wreath from improvised materials.
Christmas wreath
New Year's decor is not only a Christmas tree, tinsel and garlands. A festive wreath is a completely independent accessory: Christmas decorations are hung on doors and windows, laid out on the table.
Spruce wreath with Christmas deer on the wallNew Year's wreath historically has a round shape - earlier this role was performed by a wheel decorated with coniferous branches and candles. Candles signified the approach of the New Year: wreaths were made at the end of November (we are talking about Catholic Christmas) and decorated with four candles - one for each week until Christmas.
Four lit candles in a festive wreath mean the approach of ChristmasNowadays, candles in New Year's decorations are rarely lit - safety is paramount. But during the feast, the festive decor is supplemented with live fire - to give a mysterious, magical atmosphere.
A wreath for Christmas is perceived as a Catholic paraphernalia. But no one bothers to use such holiday decorations in the national tradition. New Year is not a religious holiday: decorate the house with what you want and how you want. And if you make a wreath for the New Year with your own hands, please yourself and your loved ones with an unusual and unique festive decor.
New Year's wreaths are made in the shape of a circle: a circle signifies endless life. But the religious component has long been forgotten: almost every house and every front door is decorated with wreaths. Decoration is made from natural and artificial materials, from paper, sweets and fruits. Which option is suitable for your home depends only on the materials at hand and the amount of free time.

DIY Christmas wreaths: unusual ideas
It is easy to make a New Year's wreath with your own hands. Decide on the idea, materials, location in the house and go ahead!
Colored paper
Let's remember childhood and applications from colored paper. Any colors are suitable for decoration, but it is better to choose those that are directly related to the holiday: red, white, green.
Draw leaves on green paper, cut them out and stick them on a round cardboard base. Decorate with red flowers and berries, fasten with silk ribbon. The paper Christmas wreath is ready.
If time permits, make an application of a bullfinch or print a ready-made picture and add a Christmas wreath It is not necessary to remember the lessons of music, the notes are suitable for making New Year's wreaths. Cut out the leaves of the ostrolista from them or hide them in voluminous cups (like bags for seeds) and fasten in the center. Collect the resulting parts on double-sided tape and fasten on a silk ribbon or twine.Another option is to sew a fabric from pieces of silk ribbons and fill it with cotton, wool or synthetics. For flavor, add dried herbs, juniper, spruce needles, as for sachet.
Ribbon wreath decorated with Christmas tree balls, cones and dried citruses Ribbon wreath is made in the same way: yarn is wound on a cardboard round frame. The finished decoration is decorated with Christmas tinsel, buttons, spools of woolen threads. The Christmas wreath made of yarn looks very original.
PMs. Sew the details between you and glue on the cardboard base.

For the same time. Glue the details, fasten with a glue gun on the base and decorate with beads. Decorate the front door with a plastic snowflake wreath. But leave the paper or lace decoration at home - it is unlikely that it will survive the snowy winter.
A wreath of white plastic snowflakes looks great on the front door For the manufacture, you will need a base, feathers, garlands: on the base around the circle, fasten the garlands (without heating!) And gradually glue each feather. Yes, it is long, but the result is worth the time spent. A wreath of white feathers - a beautiful, but very fragile decoration
Pritya
Rods, branches, long sticks - bare raw wood is twisted into a wreath and fastened with tape or twine. Such decoration is decorated with garlands, cones, spruce branches. Soak the branches before work - so the rods will bend and not break during work.
Hanging balls
On a round metal base, fasten live spruce branches and hang Christmas balls to them on threads or ribbons. Use as a hanging ceiling decoration.

Tangerines
Citrus fruits have long been used as a festive decor. They are cut into slices, dried and strung on spruce branches. And what if we remove spruce from this recipe? Take whole tangerines, fasten them with burlap or jute rope and secure in the shape of a circle. Such a fresh wreath is suitable for both the table and the door.
Tangerines are a traditional New Year's attribute that is used for festive decor. It is not so easy to grow in our conditions, but it is very easy to buy in decorator shops before the New Year.
Cotton
Decor from cotton plants became popular with the floral fashion at the expense of the whole world The necessary materials for such an eco-wreath can be found in the store. Add cones, nuts, twigs to cotton boxes - everything that fits the eco concept. Glue the parts with a glue gun on a cardboard or metal base.
Eco-style Christmas wreath: cotton, cinnamon and burlapWe continue the lessons of the young naturalist. Instead of cotton, take birch bark or tree bark - the materials will be found in late autumn in the nearest grove. Treat the bark - dry, varnish or sprinkle with sparkles. Add berries, opexi, branches to the eco-decor.
Eucalyptus, bay leaf
Everyone has a bay leaf in the house, so why not string it for a New Year's wreath. And if you want an unsurpassed aroma, replace the laurel with eucalyptus.
Christmas balls
New Year's classic: wreath of Christmas balls. Glue the balls of different colors and sizes on the cardboard base. Decorate with ribbon or decorative mesh.
A wreath of Christmas balls greets guests at the front doorIt is not necessary to specially dry the berries, although if you can, then why not! In the decoration departments, artificial branches with frosty berries are sold. Buy a few, hide them and secure with string or tape.

Spruce and cones
What could be more New Year's than spruce and spruce cones?! Here we are about the same: fasten spruce branches on a wire round frame and decorate around the circle with cones: ordinary or processed with paint.
Such wreaths made of craft paper and spruce twigs will not deteriorate from stains and will please everyone at the New Year's table To make a festive wreath from Christmas tree twigs, cones and other materials, you will need:Do not forget about the preparation of the workplace, otherwise glue, sparkles and dirt from cones and branches will spread across the field. Lay the table with a newspaper and start.
