DIY Christmas wreaths: 10 suggestions for decorating your home creatively

A wreath that welcomes guests at the entrance to the home is a decoration that some may have up all year round, no matter what the season. But there is a time when even those who don't usually decorate their homes in this way, hang up a wreath on their doors: the Christmas holidays. In addition to the entrance door, there are those who love to hang wreaths in the windows, or place them on the shelves above the fireplace or elsewhere around the home.

Wreaths are a traditional decoration that never lose their charm, and many can be very original in design. Below, we show you ten ideas you can draw inspiration from when making your Christmas wreaths.

Simple wooden discs arranged in a circle, with a bow and maybe a few fairy lights. You can write something on the wood with paint or using pyrography - maybe a Christmas greeting!

If the frame is a polystyrene donut, it can also be decorated simply by covering it with wool or scraps of fabric (in typical festive colors) and then adding a decoration on one side.

The type of fabric that is best for these decorations is checkered (like Scottish patterning), so maybe you can recycle old checkered scarves or worn out kilts.

Wreaths made using numerous thin twigs in the form of a swirl are very cute!

Extra large ropes or yarns, woven by hand or with the help of large crochet hooks: a decidely usual idea.

Here's a solution for those who want a soft and colorful garland: woolen pompoms. A perfect way to use up excess pompoms you were going to throw away.

With a bit of patience, you can create works of art made from green fronds (conifers and eucalyptus are always amongst the most popular), dried citrus slices and pine cones. Imagine the wonderful smell too!

Simple and quick: a wreath made from lots of traditional Christmas candies.

It is not at all difficult or expensive to get paper doilies (or other decorations) that look like snowflakes and use them to create a wonderful, themed Christmas wreath.

Thin pine cones and branches with red berries: a simple but attractive combination!
