I am pulling out my fall decorations this week. When do you decorate for fall? I have a quick and easy Halloween wreath you can make with inexpensive supplies from the dollar store.

Supplies needed:
- Metal wreath form
- Black and silver garland, 2 strands
- Glittery plastic spiders
- Butterfly clips, 2 sets
- Diamond wrap ribbon
- Black glitter ribbon
- Glue gun and glue sticks
I purchased all the supplies for this project at Dollar Tree (except for the glue gun).
Start by wrapping your wreath form with the garland.
I didn’t use anything to secure the ends, I simply tucked them under the part I was wrapping, but if you are worried about it coming undone you could use a little dab of hot glue to secure the ends to the wreath form.

Note: I didn’t like the look of the skulls hanging all over the wreath, so I just snipped them off with scissors.
I hot glued each of the spiders to the form.
The little butterflies have clips on the back side, so I just clipped them on the frame of the wreath – two on either side of the spiders.
I tied a bow with the glittery black ribbon.
Since it was so plain, I created a ribbon loop with the diamond wrap and secured the ends in the middle with hot glue. I then glued the black ribbon to the diamond wrap loop.
I created a diamond wrap ribbon hanger on the wreath by creating a loop around the top of the metal wreath form on the back side and hot gluing the ends together.
I have a fall wreath I normally leave up from September through November, but it will be fun to switch it out with this Halloween wreath in October.
This project was part of Craft Lightning: Halloween Edition. Be sure to check out the host’s blogs all week to see many more Halloween crafts you can create in 15 minutes or less: The Country Chic Cottage, 30 Minute Crafts, and 100 Directions. class=”aligncenter”
