    How to Make a Moss Wreath for Spring

    This DIY moss wreath is a great way to kick off spring with shades of green on a grapevine wreath base. Perfect for your door or mantel this easy craft can be made in minutes.

    Grapevine wreath with moss.

    Bright green moss always reminds me of spring, new beginnings, and rebirth. Why not make a large moss wreath as part of our spring decor? I'm using dyed reindeer moss that really isn't a moss at all but a lichen. However, it's easy to work with and gives me a deep rich color I love. You can also use sheet moss with the reindeer moss or alone.

    DIY moss wreath supplies including a grapevine wreath, and different shades of reindeer moss, oakmoss and sheet moss.

    What You'll Need

    • Grapevine wreath form
    • Dark green reindeer moss
    • Light green reindeer moss
    • Oakmoss
    • Hot glue gun and hot glue sticks

    Making a Moss Wreath for Spring

    Start by simply slipping some of the dark green moss in and under the larger vines wrapping around the wreath. This gives the wreath a look of moss naturally growing in nature.

    Next, glue the bright green moss followed by the oakmoss as accents and highlights around the wreath.

    That's it! Easy, right? You could add a nice ribbon at the top or bottom but I don't think it needs it.

    Hang it anywhere in the house or set it on the mantel. Just be sure if it's hung outdoors that it is shielded from the elements.

    Also, I wouldn't be surprised if some cheeky birds get a hold of some of it for their nests.

      love this wreath, clean and simple. I need to get off the political wagon and dive back into creativity. Started looking for land and hopefully by the end of the year we'll be building so I have a place to create again. Excellent Project!
