DIY Layered Evergreen Wreath Sconce

I feel like the general consensus out there is that this is one of the busiest Christmas seasons yet and people are still decorating a bit at a time. Or is that just my bubble? I know we haven’t “finished”- the house is in a perpetual state of renovation & box chaos and we leave for vacation in 1 week 😳. Maybe I’ll just throw garland over the box towers, ha! I found this sconce at Target months ago and have been dying to turn it into a wreath ever since. Who knows, maybe this will be your finishing piece 😉

You’ll Need
candle sconce
assorted greenery (I used the mixed holiday greenery bouquet from Trader Joes & Eucalyptus)
accent pieces (pinecones, branches)
floral wire
hot glue

Plan out both sides of the wreath at the same time. Work in layers, from back to front, starting with the bigger evergreen pieces. Layer the smaller greenery on top and weave little accent pieces throughout the layers.

Once you have it laid out, carefully remove the top layers and set aside. Use floral wire to tie the base layer to the sconce. Add the next layer and repeat. For small accent pieces like pinecones, you could make a wire lasso but well placed hot glue works just as well. Try to stick it to a heftier part of the arrangement so it stays in place.

Hunter looking like an Anthropologie model. He was a little too young last year to understand the “present” concept, but he has a new love of cardboard boxes and we have a stocking going for him 😁Is anyone interested in a puppy gift guide?

I’m happy that at least this little corner of our home is ready for Christmas! Are you guys still decorating or are you a one weekend and done kind of person?
