Today’s post is sponsored by The Home Depot. All creativity and opinions are my own.
This one time I had the chance to work with Home Depot, and it required me to decorate for Christmas before Thanksgiving which as you know is a major controversy. However I am here to say that it’s been awesome. Dare I say life changing? First obviously Christmas spirit (that point doesn’t need more explanation). It’s like a trio of wreaths set off this intentional Christmas planning that’s making my anticipation reach child like levels. Let’s jump into the DIY shall we.
I grabbed 3 of the simple 20″ wreaths at The Home Depot and decided to frost them with some spray adhesive and frost flurries. The goal was fake snow that had texture.
Fluff up your wreath and remove any decorations that are on it, in my case the red bow. Spray a medium layer of adhesive on your wreath. You can see the white residue from the spray around my wreath. Ignore the flurries in the box this shot wasn’t of the first wreath I did.
Pour on some flurries. I had a tiny hole cut in the bag, so I could control the flow. I went back and filled in the areas that needed more flurries. They will stick to your hands, but they wash off easily.
Spray a light layer of adhesive once your flurries are in place to ensure a stronger hold. Let dry 5-10 minutes. The wreaths stayed sticky for hours afterward, but you can start building your wreath 10 minutes after the final wreath is sprayed. I laid them on a tablecloth to protect the wreaths and my rug.
Attach your 3 wreaths together with wire. I used floral wire because it was green.
There were tons of great options to decorate my wreath, but this Martha Stewart Gold Berry Pick was perfect. Seriously all of her Christmas line at The Home Depot is so good this season. I mean gold pomegranate and gold glitter on this 1 decoration alone.
Attach the berry pick with the floral wire at the stem and center to secure it since it’s a little heavy. Fluff the wreath up around those spots to mask them.
Reattach your bows to the wreath or pick up some ribbon to make new ones to fit your Christmas decor. There are lots of different styles and colors in the Christmas section at Home Depot. I used 2 Command wreath hooks to hang the wreaths in the middle of our double door. I attached them to the door that doesn’t open regularly.
I love the snowy texture with the glam Martha Stewart berry pick and traditional red velvet ribbon. It’s a nice mix of modern + trendy + traditional.
Here’s proof that a wreath trio will work for a double door. Look I’m enjoying coffee as I greet my guests at the door. The wreaths don’t interfere with the comings and goings that will eventually happen this season.
The Home Depot is having a wreath trio workshop at all of their locations.
You can register here.
It’s part of their Do-It-Yourself workshops that gives step-by-step instructions through demonstrations on decor, home repair, and tool operation. Check out a local workshop to learn more. Ramona has been begging to go to a kid’s workshop there. Since I’m feeling all Christmas sporty now, a kid’s workshop will make it on the advent list of things to do.
Check out all these wonderful bloggers take on a Christmas wreath trio to be the most inspired person at the workshop!

Your wreath trio is so cute, but I LOVE your front door!
Thanks! When we picked the door, I didn’t realize it would make wreath hanging interesting. I love how it makes the entry feel architecturally since it’s totally open inside. There’s no where to decorate, so the door has to do all the work in that space.

A. You look adorable in that last photo and could seriously be the model for the Home Depot in a home magazine. I mean – puffy vest – check. Plaid – check. Cup of hot beverage- check!
B. Your wreath looks adorable. Love the Martha stuff, too. I wanted it all.
C. Your door is seriously gigantic! Like, I love the giant door.
Well thank you! I won’t admit how many shots we had to take before I just gave up and told Nick to pick one. That Martha stuff is crazy good. There were several things I was mentally preparing myself to incorporate into my Christmas decor this year!
Love the flurry touch! I, however, won’t need to DIY this aspect. Mother Nature will help me out there. Probably sooner than I’d like.
I wish I would have done an adorable door shot like you. But that would mean I would have to shower. And Ike would escape. I’ll leave the wreath modeling to you.
Oh my gosh I had to shower, put on makeup, AND curl my hair for that. I mean so many steps for a single shot. Who knows if we will get snow this year, but at least I can pretend with the wreaths.
So cute! I’m heading over to get details on this class. And your manicure is the cutest!
Oh my gosh it’s been my obsession lately! I just figured out how to use tape to color block my nails, so it’s been a fancy nail party every week over here.
What an adorable wreath! Decorating a space that large can get costly, but I’m sure you saved a ton by DIYing it! (And side note, those ankle booties you’re wearing…LOVE!)
Definitely a huge money saver! I came in right around $50 which is probably about half of what I would pay if I went with the 2 giant wreath options from that door. Those booties are from Target last year! I’m trying to find the perfect non heeled bootie option for my casual days!
Looks so pretty, love the flurries!
They are probably the only flurries I’ll see this year. I know you can relate to that!! 😉
love that snowy texture! and you are the cutest!
Haha thanks I try so hard! 😉

Looks great! I thought about flocking my wreaths somehow….now I don’t know why I didn’t, because look how cool yours are! I think I literally forgot all about it, actually. oops.
Oh flocking! There’s a real word to describe what I did. I thought I was being all original and considering trademarking this Christmas style of wreath decorating. Thanks for keeping me grounded!
Love this! You look so festive and fun. I want to run over for coffee right now! Or hot cocoa by the fireplace. Gorgeous and simple/approachable DIY! Love it! I’m hosting a bridal shower Saturday or I’d definitely be starting the Christmas decorating. Holding off just one more week.
We are having everyone over for Thanksgiving, so the Christmas decor stops at the door. It’s been so hard to stop it tho. We are watching Elf right now, so I’m like a step away from mistletoe and glitter everywhere!
Also I would looooove you to come over for coffee or cocoa!!
I never like to decorate this early either but something about this year is making me want to dive right in and get Christmas started! These wreaths are adorable!
I never do either, but seriously this year is making me want to decorate and a sing carols. It’s crazy!
I absolutely your wreath trio and your door is stunning! #mouthdropped. The snowy texture is awesome as well.
Thanks Erin! The flurry look turned out better than I anticipated! I almost didn’t put the bows back on it!
Oh my goodness! These are absolute perfection. There is something so perfect about a white Christmas and these capture the essence of it beautifully.
Thanks Tamsyn! It’s probably the only white Christmas we will have around here, so I’ll take it!
Such cute pictures! Your planter is gorgeous. Love your wreath trio too.
Thank you! The planter is from Target ages ago. We got the tree from Home Depot. Hope I can keep it alive!
Spray adhesive and flurries… genius! Your wreath trio is gorgeous! And so are those doors!
Thanks Jamie! Texturally they turned out exactly like I’d hoped. It’s always a nice surprise when that happens! 😉
I love how well the gold accents go with your beautiful door and the flurries just put that magic touch!
Thanks Cristina! I was glad to see another casa tackle this project! 😉
Love your wreath and your ingenious way you connected them together and hung them on your door. You have an amazing entry-love your door-what an interesting challenge to decorate-but you nailed it! Great job
Thank you Sharon!!
I love it. And I love the size of your door 😉 I couldn’t fit three wreaths on mine.
Maybe you could do a smaller diameter? I don’t know I’m sure you have your Christmas decoration scene locked down with greatness! 😉

I love the flocking!! And of course you in the door way. Does it get more stylish? (no)
Thanks! It’s more traditional that I normally go, but that’s kinda been the theme or general feeling around here lately!
