Farmhouse decor is HOT right now, but if you prefer more bright colors than muted ones you often find with that style, this design is for you! This DIY Farmhouse Swag is beautiful and will add just the right splash of color for your inventory (or front door!).

That’s why I want to show you how you can take three simple products and turn them into designer-looking DIY farmhouse swag decor. This project is really simple to make and only requires a few supplies (5 to be exact). But, the best part is that it only took me 6 minutes from start to finish!
Beautiful looking decor like this that hardly takes any time is exactly the kind of thing you want to make to fill up any holes in your shop inventory. Your time is your most valuable asset as a Craftpreneur, so make the most of it by making decor like this that will sell like hotcakes.

Farmhouse Floral Swag Video Tutorial
I made a quick video to show you the process I used for this swag design. Follow along as you make your own!
How To Make This Designer Farmhouse Swag
If you missed a step or two in the video – or just prefer written directions, follow these steps to create your own swag.
Step 1
So, the first thing that we want to do is get your base and flowers all fluffed out.
Step 2
A pre-made floral swag base all by itself looks a little sparse. Take your larger stem and trim it down a little bit.
(You can use a stem cutter, regular wire cutters, or bolt cutters if you need.)
Step 3
Find the bare spots and just weave that stem right in there. Tie the stems at the top where they connect with a zip tie to hold it in place.
Step 4
Now, we can start taking your base and floral spray making sure they’re well mingled. Just ensure that all the flowers are incorporated into the face of your piece instead of hiding behind the greenery.
Step 5
We’re halfway done, y’all!
Now, we’ll take our bottom are next spray and add that to the bottom part of our swag to fill in the bare spots. Work that in there.
Step 6
Turn it over and give it a zip tie. So on the bottom stem we just added, I like to add a zip tie towards the top and then find another place on the stem where they somewhat meet. That helps keep that one stem from moving around too much.
Step 7
Zip ties are quick and easy-and your friend.
Snip off the extra zip tie. Make sure this is good and fluffed out and pretty.
Step 8
Now, we will make our little bow. I will use the EZ bow maker. You can get these on DecoExchange!
For this one, we just need 6″ tails and a few loops. Fasten to the swag base with two more zip ties.
And, there’s your designer swag. Just like that!

wow..It looks amazing. I never thought that we may design a swag in Under 6 Minutes…
You there, this is really good post here. Thanks for taking the time to post such valuable information.
Wow I learned so much with you. I never thought it could be done this quick.
Loved this swag, Are you going to get anymore in, What Im finding is the things that I have watched, you can not purchase anymore and its just not from this video. I realize you do not have acres upon acres of warehouse space but it would be nice to buy from you. As a new member I would like to make what you make just to see if I can do it, I hope that makes sense and is not to unrealistic.
Hi Marcia,
When items sell out, we suggest using comparable colors, patterns, etc. so that you can switch out the look to fit your style. We love seeing our community create variations that fit different seasons or design themes. Some of our tutorials are more than a year old, so keeping those in stock aren’t always possible. If you head over to our shop DecoExchange you’ll can pick florals stems, greenery, and ribbon that work for you. =)
I really liked your article, thank you for sharing! I adore different cosy decisions in house design and all your Swag Decorations are very inspiring.
