Purchasing Homemade Easter Wreaths Online

By Dominique Martin


Many people think that making a wreath is an easy DIY project for them to attempt. It is in fact not that difficult to make a simple one if one has a good eye for combining textures and colors. It is possible however to use expensive materials in making one and then be dissatisfied with the final result. Fortunately, there are many homemade Easter wreaths available from online stores today that are beautifully made.

These items are often not that expensive when one considers all the materials used in their construction. Many of them are beautifully constructed by those with a real skill for combining colors and textures. They are often made to last and attention is given to every last detail. There are ones available to suit every taste in all sizes, shapes, colors and styles.

Pastel eggs combined with pink beads and twigs creates a look of soft elegance. Yellow eggs, daffodils and a big yellow bow is a cheery sight on any front door. Burlap is one of the materials used in the creation of a shabby chic style with tiny eggs nestling amongst twigs and moss. A fresh, inviting one consists of green and blue eggs arranged in a circular pattern with a blue ribbon.

An Easter wreath often contains eggs and these can be made of many different materials, from wood and plastic to embroidered fabric. These eggs are arranged in hundreds of different ways. Sometimes a large egg is centered in a frame and surrounded with flowers or many smaller eggs are scattered amongst twigs and moss. Ribbons, flowers and lace are used in creative combinations.

A wreath is usually round in shape but there are also squares, ovals and others available. For the square shapes, a frame is usually used to surround the other elements. Ovals are created out of twigs and may contain a basket with eggs inside. Bunny shapes are created out of wood and other materials.

The front door is a favorite position for hanging a wreath as it is a welcoming sight for those coming to visit. When toy bunnies or any soft materials are used, the door should have a large enough overhang to protect the item from the rain. Alternatively, it can be hung above a fireplace or on just about any other wall.

Flowers are often used in creating these items. These are either dried flowers or ones made from fabric, tissue paper and many other materials. Dahlias, daisies, lilies, hydrangeas and roses are just some of the flowers used. Lovely wild flowers in all the colors of a garden are combined with small eggs to create an informal look. Eggs nestled amongst roses and ribbons offers a more elegant, formal appeal.

Items that are hand made take much longer to create. Great attention is given to every detail and much artistry goes into combining all the elements. This means that orders have to be placed in time as stocks may be limited and go quickly. Choosing a reputable supplier is important to ensure that a product arrives on time and is packaged correctly so it is not damaged in any way.
