This pool noodle grapevine wreath offers a super simple way to elevate your home decor, whether for a spring wreath, fall harvest, or the holiday season.

Easy Crafts And Versatility

• Easy Craft Idea: Pool noodle wreaths are easy to assemble, even if you don’t have much crafting experience. Wrap the pool noodles into a circular shape, and connect the ends with hot glue, and duct tape. Insert it in the middle of a grapevine wreath form and cover it with moss. The easiest way to customize a wreath, add faux greenery, larger flowers, or scraps of fabric for pops of color.
• Versatile: A pool noodle wreath with a grapevine wreath form can be used in different ways, a front door, a front porch, or seasonal wreaths for different seasons. It’s a great way to make a faux succulent wreath to enhance a spring or summer party.

Craft Supplies:

• A pool noodle – grocery stores, Dollar Store, Dollar Tree, or Home Depot
• Grapevine wreath form
• Scissors
• Self stick moss – craft stores
• Wood Dowel
• Hot glue gun
• Duct tape
• Popsicle stick
• Protective fingertips

Step 1: Shaping the Pool Noodle Oval To Fit The Grapevine Wreath Form

First thing, measure your pool noodles before cutting. Add it to the middle of the grapevine wreath. This gives a good measurement. Using scissors cut the pool noodles to size.

Step 2: Securing The Wood Dowel With A Hot Glue Gun

We want to ensure the pool noodle is just the right size to fit snugly in the middle of the wreath.For a 16-inch grapevine wreath form, approximately 14.5 inches should fit the middle of the wreath.First thing, using a hot glue gun add low-temperature hot glue to the sides of the hole of the pool noodle.Add a bit of hot glue to the bottom of the wood dowel and the sides.(This may seem to be a bit much but keeping this secure is the key to this easy craft idea).

Step 3: Crafting With Moss Cut For A Beautiful Wreath

set your hot glue gun at a low temperature.Grab the moss and cut strips to cover the pool noodle.Cut the moss into approximately 4-inch wide strips.Peel the backing off the sticky moss, and add it to the pool noodle.Before pressing the moss on the wreath carefully add a little bit of hot glue. Press the moss strip down and move to the next section.Cover the entire pool noodle wreath with moss strips.

This process goes rather quickly. The moss is very sticky but don’t skip adding the hot glue.Over time the moss may become loose and ruin your DIY wreath.

Step 4: Craft Idea: A Nest is a Great Way to add some Natural Beauty

A super simple way to add a touch of nature and natural beauty.  Add a bird’s nest secured using floral pins.
