DIY Window Wreaths For Christmas
Making window wreaths for Christmas is a fresh take on my favorite seasonal craft. Instead of the usual door wreath, I decided to make interior wreaths for our main floor windows.
I always start by spreading out all the elements I consider using for my wreath.
Supply List For The Window Wreaths for Christmas
- Three 14-inch golden wire hoops
- Two stems of faux greenery, divided into six pieces
- Navy blue wired ribbon
- Red and green tartan wired ribbon
- Six single pieces of faux fir tips
- Florist wire
The only tools you will need are a pair of pliers and a pair of scissors!
Arrange the greenery for a single wreath with stems facing each other and wrap the stems together with florist wire cut approximately 18 inches long.
Use the remaining length of wire to attach the stems to one of the metal hoops.
After wrapping the greenery onto the hoop, it should look like this.
Making Bows For The Wreaths
Wired ribbon is a must for well-formed bows. Start making loops and keep everything pinched together in the middle. I made my bows with four loops and two tails each. When you are happy with your bow’s fullness, wrap the florist’s wire tightly around the pinched middle to keep it all together. Cut your wire long enough to secure it to the wire hoop as well. A 4-inch piece should be sufficient.
Voila! You have a lightweight, stylish wreath for the interior of your home.
How cute are all three of them together?? Ready to be hung in windows.
How To Hang Wreaths On The Inside Of Windows
These little Command hooks are the best! They are small enough to stick discreetly onto the window frames behind the blinds. I love the swivel hooks that give you more options to hang your wreath.
I used the navy blue ribbon to hang the hoops from the hooks. You can see only a tiny bit of it here in the kitchen window.
The second window wreath is for the picture window in the dining area.
It is not easy to take photos of windows with the light on the wrong side of the camera!
The ground is covered in snow, and it is extra bright outside!
Wreath number three hangs in the living room window behind the Christmas tree.
I hope you are filled with Christmas inspiration! Until next time, happy decorating!

Gorgeous wreathes! And so simple to make!
Marieza, these are so lovely! Reading through the post, I realized I have several metal hoops reclaimed from old lampshades! They would be perfect for this project! Thanks for the inspiration. Pinning!😊
Do you have an affiliate link to share for the metal wreaths? I’d love to order a few.
I have never done a wreath on my windows, but I really love the idea. I will do it this year. Love it!
I love these wreaths! So pretty and easy to make! Thanks for sharing!
I love the simple gold ring with a bow look. So pretty! Love both ribbon selections!
Great tutorial! I love how you used three of them together. So beautiful!
Love these, Marieza. And, I love window wreaths. Now I need to find the time to get crafting! xo
Very pretty, love the ribbon
These are so very cute, and very elegant. I have been avoiding Christmas – I’m not ready for the year to be over. I still have so much to do.
What a great project and so nice that it is simple! I absolutely adore them when you hung them all together. My daughter and I made them too and I am loving the Hallmark movie feel they are giving the house.
Thanks, Crystal! I also love how they look together! Maybe I’ll use them like that next year.
These turned out so pretty! The trees outside your window provide the perfect backdrop!
Thanks, Marie! I’m glad you like them. I definitely use the trees outside to my advantage when taking photos, lol!
Now I want to decorate my windows too this Christmas !🎄
Thank you for another inspirational tutorial Marieza.
Thank you for reading! I can definitely recommend the window wreaths! It’s a first for me and honestly, I don’t know why I haven’t done it sooner!
