This gorgeous DIY fall floral embroidery hoop wreath, complete with the copper molds, is a perfect piece of fall decor for your kitchen! If you’re looking for a fun faux floral project to add some autumn color and spruce up your pantry door, this gorgeous indoor wreath is an easy and gorgeous option!

I love indoor wreaths. They’re such a great way to add color, bring in a little bit of nature (I know, I know, faux florals – but we can pretend, can’t we?), and have gorgeous decor that isn’t taking up much-needed counter space or shelf space.

Ya know?

This gorgeous, colorful, fun faux fall floral wreath was inspired by a couple of wreaths that the Lolly Jane gals posted on their blog (their adorable embroidery hoop wreaths and the beaaaautiful fall wheel wreath with the bold colors!). I saw those wreaths and was totally smitten. A friend of mine gave me those adorable mini copper molds years ago, and I’ve just been itching to figure out how to use them in a project. Turns out this was the perfect one!

Ready for me to walk you through the few steps it requires to make this beaut?!

Yay! Let’s get started!

Step 1 (Optional): Stain wreath

Apparently I forgot to take a picture of this step, but you already know how to do this! Easy peasy. I just used an old sock, wiped the stain onto the wood, and then let it dry for about 30-45 minutes before getting back to work. You may need to adjust your dry time depending on your weather when you make yours (it was hot – 90+ degrees – and sunny when I worked on mine).

 

Step 2: Start laying out your materials

This process was far more art than science. At this point, I wasn’t sure what all I was going to use to make the wreath. I just knew I wanted lots of color and texture, and to be able to fit those copper molds on there somehow.

I just began laying out all of the floral elements I had, and then started figuring out how I’d want to actually break them up and use them on the wreath. You can tell from these materials that I didn’t end up using everything I bought. I made a bunch of returns on florals I didn’t end up using! Since these were the bigger elements, I decided to make somewhat of a plan for these first, and then figure out how to fit the florals around them.

 

Step 3: Lay out copper molds & attach them to the wreath

I’d say this part is also more art than science, but considering gravity is at play here, you’re at least dealing with a little bit of science. 🙂

I laid out the copper molds how I wanted them, and even though I knew that some of them might bend back down if I fixed them like this, I knew I could use the florals to back them up and support them. And, if nothing else, I could bring in some hot glue for some reinforcement.

I used the floral wire to attach the molds to the hoop, trying to secure them as best I could, but again, I wasn’t overly concerned with the direction they were facing, just because I knew I could make those fixes later. What I focused on was making sure they were snug in the location I wanted them on the hoop.

 

Step 4: Lay out flowers, pumpkins, and pine cones & glue onto wreath

Laying out the flowers is where I spent the majority of my time in making this wreath. It took me a bit to figure out a spread that I thought made sense and brought in the color I wanted. I probably spent a good 20 minutes mixing and matching floral pieces and figuring out how to display them along with the pumpkins and the pine cones.

Once I laid everything out, I got to work with my glue gun and secured everything in place.

And friends, that’s about it! I hung it up on my pantry door for display, and I’m just loving it! I’m considering adding a ribbon to the top of it – maybe a red buffalo check one.

I didn’t want to make it even busier with the bow, but it might be a cute touch. Who knows?! I’m constantly revamping things, so I wouldn’t be surprised if this cute wreath donned a big bow on top next fall, but for now, I’ll probably leave it as is.

I love using kitchen items to actually decorate my kitchen, especially when they’re vintage-y! These copper molds make this wreath ultra chic, cottage-esque, and adorable! Go make one for your kitchen!
