It’s time to start on the Easter crafts that will decorate your home this holiday season! Here’s a cute seasonal wreath that takes just a few items to create and it can be completed and on your door in no time!
This is a great Easter craft to do with children. Have them shop with you for the pieces and then with your help, paint them before assembling the wreath. Embellish your wreath to fit your style. Add ribbon, glitter, other seasonal items to make it your own.

Beautiful wreath!
I love this wreath. It looks great and easy enough to make. My biggest problem would be getting my daughter not to add 500 more things to it. She has a hard time with less is more. 🙂
