Hey, y’all! The colors in this spring-themed bike wheel wreath are so bright and beautiful- perfect for spring! The yellows, blues, pinks, and greens just pop against that white door.

This is such a fun project with a repurposed bike wheel. You could find one premade, but if you want to make it a complete DIY project grab an old 16″ bike wheel and spray paint that bad boy.

Tip: You could customize it with any color, for any season.

Although this design doesn’t have any sign attachments it doesn’t mean you can’t get crazy with it y’all. Have fun with it!

Supplies Needed for this DIY Bike Wheel Wreath

Here’s a list of everything you need to make this fun seasonal wreath. I’ve included some links to help you easily find the items you need.

• 16″ Bike wheel

• Your choice of themed picks and sprays
• Zip ties
• Deco mesh
• Ribbons – 1 ½” and 2″

How To Make A Bicycle Wheel Wreath

Follow these step-by-step instructions, and in practically no time you’ll have your own finished wreath to display proudly (or sell!).

Watch The Video Tutorial

I made a short video you can find at the end of this post, so you can see the process from start to finish and follow along.

Instructions

Just in case you would prefer to follow written directions rather than a video, here you go! You can print a printer-friendly copy at the end of this post, if you want.

As you can tell from the number of steps involved, this wreath is a breeze to make, so you can make several for friends and family or use to boost your inventory.

Step 1

Secure your attachments, picks, and sprays to one of the spokes of the bike wheel using zip ties.

Step 2

Cut a piece of deco mesh to make a ruffle for the base of your bow.

Step 3

Get creative with your ribbon patterns and colors to make your bow.

Take your green 2″ ribbon and make a bow with a loop and tails. Layer on top another 2″ ribbon with a loop and tails.

On top of that, add a 1.5″ ribbon for a loop and tails. The last layer of your bow will be another 1.5″ ribbon with a loop and tails.

Step 4

Use a pipe cleaner to secure your bow and to attach both ruffle and bow to the bike wheel.

Step 5

Fluff out bow once attached. Dovetail your tails, if you want to.

Step 6

Adjust your picks and sprays so it gives the wreath some depth.
