Apparently, I Really Love Making Fall Wreaths! | The View from Foxglove Hill

Apparently, I really love making fall wreaths! As I’ve been revisiting and updating some of my older seasonal projects, I was surprised to discover that I have created so many different DIY fall wreaths over the years. From colorful, overflowing designs filled with pumpkins and autumn leaves to simpler wreaths inspired by nature, each one offers a different way to welcome the season—and today, I’m gathering all of my favorite DIY fall wreath ideas together in one place.

Since fall decorating often begins with just one small change, I thought this would be the perfect week to gather all of these wreath ideas together. Whether you love pumpkins, autumn leaves, rich seasonal colors, or something a little unexpected, I hope one of these inspires your own front door this fall.

Looking back through these projects was a little like opening a box of fall decorations I had forgotten about. Some wreaths still feel completely timeless, while others reminded me of how much my decorating style—and my photography!—has changed over the years. I enjoyed giving several of the older posts a little refresh and bringing all of the ideas together in one easy place.

One of the things I love most about a wreath is how quickly it can make your home feel ready for a new season. You don’t have to decorate the entire house or bring out every pumpkin you own. Sometimes, hanging a beautiful wreath on the front door is all it takes to say, “Fall is on its way.”

Inside the roundup, you’ll find traditional autumn wreaths overflowing with leaves, berries, fruit, and pumpkins, along with a few more unusual designs—including a golden magnolia wreath, a cornucopia wreath, and some fun projects made with Dollar Tree finds. Each wreath includes a link to the original post, so if one catches your eye, you can find the complete instructions for making your own.

I would love to know which one is your favorite. Are you drawn to the full and colorful traditional wreaths, or do you prefer something simpler and a little more unexpected?

SEE ALL OF MY FALL WREATH IDEAS

Have you ever wondered what Lily and I do when we’re not working on Celebrate & Decorate? Lately, I’ve been teaching her to identify her toys by name and then pick them up and put them away. Poodles are SO smart, and she has become quite good at the cleaning-up part! Identifying the correct toy, however, still has its good days and bad days. She knows her beloved donut—most of the time—but occasionally she brings me the rat or even the strawberry instead. We’re still working on it, but at least one of us is getting better about putting things away!

Most of my foxgloves have gone to seed and are showing very little color now, but this beautiful bloom is holding on just a little longer—for me and for the hummingbird who visits it every day! It sits right outside the window beside my desk, so I get to enjoy both the flower and its tiny visitor while I work. It feels like one last sweet gift from the summer garden.

As summer slowly begins to give way to fall, I’m enjoying these last colorful blooms while also looking forward to the season ahead. There will be plenty more fall decorating, DIY projects, and little glimpses of life here at Foxglove Hill to share in the coming weeks. Until then, I hope you find a wreath that inspires you, notice a few lingering signs of summer, and make time to enjoy the small moments that make each season special.

Thank you, as always, for spending a little part of your week with Lily and me. I’ll see you next Tuesday with another View from Foxglove Hill!
