Fall Felt Leaf Wreath

September 9, 2013 By Shannah Coe 35 Comments

September is always a funny month here.  One day {yesterday} it still feels like summer with temperatures above 90 degrees.  Then, the next {today} the temperature will top out in the 70s.  It is really hard to feel like decorating for one season or another because you are constantly being thrown between two seasons.  I didn’t let the hot weather stop me though from starting on my fall decorating.  I used the heat as a reason to stay inside and test out my new hot glue gun instead creating my fall felt leaf wreath.Fall felt leaf wreath with labelLast year, I admired so many felt leaf wreathes so I knew I wanted to make a wreath that included some leaves this year.  I didn’t have the time or patience to cover my entire wreath though {maybe next year…}.  I start out by tracing my leaves onto the pieces of felt.  Then, I cut out the leaves in sets of three.felt leaves_wmAfter wrapping my wreath form in tan satin ribbon, I added the floral piece.  It is actually a floral candle ring that I cut and squished together to make work for my wreath.felt leaf wreath ring_wmI started laying out the leaves only to discover that the tan ribbon just needed something extra.  Mathlete didn’t even realize I had covered the wreath form and just thought the ribbon was how the base looked.  So, before I got too far into the leaf gluing process, I added a little bit of glittery leaf ribbon around the wreath form.
For each set of leaves, I glued the three together and then layered them under the previous set that I had attached to the wreath.felt leaf wreath layers_wmYou can choose to go up as little or as far as you want to along the wreath form.  I stopped about equal to where the flowers ended on the opposite side.felt leaves up close_wmfelt leaf wreath flower_wmfall felt leaf wreath_wmNow, this felt leaf wreath waits for a day where the temperature isn’t described with words like scorching and muggy.  Those days are coming and I can’t wait!

What kind of fall decorating have you been working on?  Do you wait until the temperature changes or just put it out there even in hot weather?

    How lovely! I really like the felt leaves and think I might try making a wreath entirely out of the felt leaves.

      Susan – That was totally my intention at first but I just knew I wouldn’t have enough time. I hope you make one with only leaves so I can see it!
