From the season's vibrant colors and floral and fauna motifs, spring is bursting with design inspiration when it comes to designing a beautiful DIY wreath. No matter what materials or symbols from the season catch your eye, our handmade wreath ideas will welcome spring right to your doorstep.

Looking for something more wild and freeform? Take inspiration from Florist Emily Thompson, who is known for her signature ephemeral wreaths, including this one made from a fresh quince branch in bloom. She wired it into a loop, then added branches with rose hips for a touch of green.

Create a beautiful spring wreath with our twist on classic May Day flower cones, which are traditionally placed on loved ones' door knobs on the very first day of the month.

Paper is by no means a poor imitation for the beautiful bounty of spring. You can snip, fold, and shape it into any variety of greenery you wish. With the four-leaf clovers on this wreath, we're paying homage to a popular spring holiday—St. Patrick's Day.

Create a wreath that will last the entire season by using faux flowers, birds, and butterflies in a nod to spring. The accents are made by placing clay into molds, which are then left to dry and attached to a wreath base with craft glue.

A wreath's base is often made from grapevine, twine, and bendable boughs. Here, we tried a lesser-used florist's trick: metal hoops. Forage for fresh greenery or select flowers from your spring garden and make wreaths of your own.

Fern Wreath

Fern Wreath on Door

This wreath grows as it lives in your home. The gardener's secret? A sphagnum moss-covered wreath form is tucked with fern plants, which are misted occasionally. To make your own, divide ferns into individual plants with their roots attached and tuck the stems into the damp moss, which anchors them as they grow.

A well-known spring symbol, eggs are the perfect focal point for your seasonal wreath. To create this simple decoration, dye emptied chicken and quail eggs and attach them to a wreath of your choosing with glue.

Pussy Willow Wreath

One of Martha's favorite signs that spring is here, pussy willows can be used to make a gorgeous seasonal wreath. The strong, bendable branches form catkins—clusters of hundreds of flowers sans petals. Cut the branches down and thread them into a grapevine wreath until it looks filled in.

Fill a metal base with dried pussy willow, eucalyptus, and rice flowers to re-create our beautiful floral spring wreath. Use it all year long by swapping out the elements after spring and filling it with materials from summer, winter, and fall's bounty.
