How to Make a Spring Barrel Ring Wreath

In this post, I will be sharing 10 easy steps on how to make a Spring Barrel Ring Wreath.

It turned out better than I imagined.

And it is super easy.

A little story.

Some friends and I went antiquing in Snohomish, WA and stopped at a junk store a few blocks away from the main downtown area.

Inside, we found some old treasures.

Vintage fixtures, glass lamp shades, wood-burning cook stoves, old doors, and so much more.

During this visit, I found some barrel rings for $8.00 each.

The Spring Barrel Ring Wreath hung on my door.

It looks amazing!

Now, for the 10 Easy Steps to Make a Spring Barrel Ring Wreath.

Time: 30 minutes

Level: Beginner

What you will need for this project:

• Barrel Ring

• 3 Eucalyptus branches with white berries on the ends.

• 2 large white berry branches.

• 5 White Roses.

• Wire cutters
• Scissors
• Green floral wire

Instructions:

Step 1. Cut off all the tags from the faux branches and flowers.

Step 2. Using the wire cutter, cut all the stems.

Step 3. Start by adding the eucalyptus branch.

Take the first eucalyptus branch and place it on the outside of the barrel ring.

Step 4. Secure with floral wire.

Cut 10 inches of wire and wrap it around the branch.

Do a simple tie and twist it to close and secure the wire.

Step 5. Tuck 3 to 4 eucalyptus branches into the wire and continue to the next section.

Step 6. Repeat steps 4 and 5.

Cut 10 inches of wire.

Tuck 4 to 5 branches into the wire.

To make it look full, put 1 branch on the inside of the barrel ring, above and under the barrel ring.

If you want a fuller look, you can add more eucalyptus branches to the wreath.

Step 7. Add the large white berries.

Bend the large white berry branches to fit onto the barrel ring.

Attach one branch on the left side, securing it with floral wire at the bottom and top of the berry branch.

Repeat this by adding the 2nd berry branch to the right side of the barrel ring and securing it with the floral wire.

Step 8. Add the flowers.

Place each white rose flower 4 to 5 inches apart.

Take the stem and tuck it into the wire to hold it.

I used five flowers for this project, but you could use more if you like.

I cut the floral stem shorter and used the lower leaves to add fullness to the wreath. See the next step.

Step 9. Add some floral leaves.

Taking the leaves that I cut from each floral stem, I add these to the wreath.

It makes it look more full.

Step 10. Add the burlap twine.

Tie a simple knot on the left side, above the start of the branches and flowers.

Lift the wreath and wrap the burlap twine around loosely.

You’ll want this to be seen, so place it above the branches and don’t overlap the flowers.

On the right side tie a simple knot.

Repeat this by wrapping another layer of burlap twine.

You are now done!

I think it looks great!

It has an elegant rustic look.

I love the combination!
