Hey, y’all. Christmas is coming, so it’s time to stock your shops for the Craftpreneur’s “busy season”!

I have learned through experience that when you need to build up inventory, whether it’s for a craft show or for your own online shop, time is of the essence.

In other words, you need to find ways to be efficient with your time and resources. The best way to do that is by making simple designs that look more intricate than they really are. Ideally, you can make multiples of a design that only takes you 15 minutes (or less).

And that’s just what I have for you today – a quick and easy DIY Christmas wreath design that you can make in 15 minutes or less and sells like hotcakes!

Supply List for This Simple DIY Christmas Wreath Idea

• 18-inch oval grapevine wreath
• 2 Christmas Picks
• 1 roll of 1.5″ ribbon
• Stem cutter (not required but makes it easier to cut large stems)
• Wire cutters
• Zip ties
• Hot glue gun (optional)
• Hot glue sticks (optional)
• EZ Bowmaker

How To Make This Quick and Easy DIY Christmas Wreath Idea

Just in case you don’t have time to watch the video or missed a step, use these step-by-step instructions to guide you through the project.

Step 1

Trim your Christmas foliage pick and add it to your grapevine from the top of the left side. I prefer to add my pick at an angle that allows me to bend the top a little bit to follow the curve of the wreath.

Step 2

Repeat the same process for your second pick but insert it from the bottom of the left side so that the 2 stems come together in the middle.

Step 3

Add a dab of hot glue where the stems come together in your grapevine wreath.

Step 4

Grab your EZ Bowmaker and make your bow. Once complete, remove the bow from your bowmaker and use your pipe cleaner to hold it all together.

Note: When you remove your bow from the EZ Bowmaker, tie it tightly which makes the bow want to stand up.

Step 5

Then, use that same pipe cleaner to attach your bow to your wreath in that spot where the two picks come together.

Step 6

Dovetail the ends of your ribbon, then curl the tails. This step is completely optional but looks nice.

That’s it, y’all! I told you this design was easy!

Now, you know the secret to creating a designer Christmas wreath that didn’t take hours to make or break the bank. All it takes is 4 simple pieces and less than 20 minutes of your time!

Get ready to decorate your door or porch with this beautiful piece of Christmas decor or make it to sell in time for the holidays.

DIY Christmas Wreath Idea

How to make a DIY grapevine Christmas wreath that takes less than 20 minutes but looks incredible.

Yield: 1 wreath

Equipment

• EZ Bowmaker
• Wire cutters
• Hot glue gun
• Hot glue sticks
• Stem cutter (not required but makes it easier to cut large stems)

Materials

• 18-inch oval grapevine wreath
• 2 Christmas Picks
• 1 Roll of 1.5″ Ribbon
• pipe cleaners

Instructions

• Cut your Christmas foliage pick just short enough that you can insert it into your grapevine wreath but it doesn't sick out on the other side. Add it to your wreath base from the top on the left side. I prefer to add my pick at an angle that allows me to bend the top a little to follow the curve of the wreath.
• Repeat the same process for your second pick but insert it from the bottom of the left side such that the 2 stems come together side by side in the middle.
• Add a bit of hot glue to the area on your wreath where the foliage stems come together.
• Use your EZ Bowmaker to make your bow. Once you have finished the bow, remove it from your bowmaker, and use your pipe cleaner to hold it all together.
• Then, use that same pipe cleaner to attach your bow to your wreath in that area where the two picks come together.
• Optional: dovetail the ends of your ribbon and then curl the tails.
