An asymmetrical approach

Make your wreath stand out by decorating it with something a bit more unusual: tiny paper umbrellas, the kind that you decorate cocktails with. You can use a bunch of these to cove the entire wreath. Mix and match lots of different colors and patterns to get this crazy effect and embrace this look. Use a styrofoam wreath form to make this project easier.

All flowers have a ton of charm and each one is special in its own unique way. The lily of the valley is one of the most distinctive types of flowers admired for its delicate appearance and enchanting scent. A lily of the valley wreath would sure look amazing and this design from danslelakehouse really knows how to highlight the uniqueness of these little flowers. 

A symphony of pastel colors

Summer is full of cheerful and sunny colors that are just impossible to resist. A particularly lovely way to bring them into our homes and to display them in a unique and effective manner is through wreaths.

Relying on a timeless combination of colors like black and white is a good way of making sure your wreath fits in pretty much any type of decor. Of course, using only those color can end up looking a bit boring. Try playing with some fun patterns like these zebra stripes and adding a few contrasting accents like the roses.

Simple with a twist

This farmhouse-style wreath from lydioutloud has one of the most interesting and unique designs so far. What really stands out is the fact it doesn’t use a classic wreath form but a wagon wheel decoration instead. It’s such a clever idea and it makes all the difference. 

A mix of greens and flowers

Flowers are not the only thing that you can decorate a summer wreath with. Including a few seasonal or brightly colored fruits in the design can help to put it over the top and to give it an original and eye-catching look. This beautiful wreath design shared on craftberrybush features a bunch of faux lemons which give it a super cheerful look. 

Go with a farmhouse approach

Using greenery and flowers as decorations for a wreath is one option but there’s plenty of others that you also like to explore. For example, this fun watermelon-inspired wreath from craftcreatecook is made from a bunch of fabric strips tied onto a simple wire wreath form. Doesn’t it look delicious?

A square wreath

You might also like a wreath design that’s a bit more diverse and uses not one type of greenery or flowers but several. This lovely wreath featured on thediymommy is a perfect example. We love all the subtle differences between the color nuances and the contrasts that they create.

A zebra wreath

Not all wreaths are circular but most usually are which is why seeing something like this is rather unexpected. This square-shaped wreath featured on aprettyfix has a lot of charm and it’s not all due to its unusual shape. The way in which the different flowers and colors are organized and paired together is also part of the design strategy.
