DIY Berry Wreath

Christmas, wreath, berry, berries, red, decor, home decor, holiday decor, holiday, winter, festive
Have you seen all of the cute wreaths at Target this holiday season? I quickly fell in love with every single one of them (especially this cute little thing!), but I just couldn't bring myself to spend that much money on a wreath. Instead, I picked up a few things at Walmart and made my own for $7--about a 1/5 of the price. It took less than 15 minutes to put together and I'm really loving how it looks on my shelf with other Christmas decor.

wreath
2 sprigs of berries
a hot glue gun
scissors

This craft is so easy to put together that I'm 99.9% positive it's impossible to mess up. Start by cutting off small bunches of berries, but make sure that you leave at least 1-2" to tuck down into the wreath. Add a dot of hot glue to the bottom of each berry bunch and place them in between the wreath branches. I found that alternating them facing in and out made the wreath look more full and complete.
