Once the calendar flips over to a new year, I start the “Countdown to Fall” clock in my head. Honest to goodness, I spend all year looking forward to the first cool day after a hot summer. And once that day arrives, I can’t wait to welcome it on my front door. So, I decided to gather some of my favorite upcycling projects for autumn and fall wreath ideas.
And front door wreaths- especially those for Fall- can use the most unexpected wreath supplies.
For instance, my leather arrow quiver and wooden arrows made for a unusual DIY fall wreath, to say the least…
As unusual as it was, though, it totally worked! And I still use this from time to time because as old as it is, it just never goes out of style.
I also upcycled the lid of a wood cheese box into a rustic fall wreath, as well.
And it’s not just generic fall wreaths that I’ve made in the past. How about this Thanksgiving wreath, which I made by upcycling things that just happened to be next to each other on a thrift store shelf.
But my DIY fall wreaths are just the tip of the iceberg. There are a TON of fall wreath ideas out there, each one unique and festive.
From using rusty junk, to making a pumpkin wreath, to using colorful corn and unexpected thrift store items. So, I hope you find some autumn inspiration in the ideas below!
Upcycled Projects for Fall Wreath Ideas
See what I mean? Wreath supplies for a harvest wreath run the gamut- Bundt pans, straw hats, ceiling medallions, and so forth.
I even included a fall wreath idea in my book, “Crafting with Flannel”. It’s perfect for all of your leftover fabric scraps!
And I love each of them, in their own enchanting way. Think you’ll be working on one of these front door wreaths for your front door?
I’m also excited to announce that my first book is now available! If you enjoy upcycling clothing and simple sewing projects, then you will love my book on flannel crafts!
And for some easy indoor fall decor, make sure you check out these decorative pumpkins and gourds I made from our recycling bin, too!
Craft on!

Me too!! I count the days until September 1 when fall begins for me, whether it is still warm or not, LOL!! We had a cool spell this week and I am in the mood for those colorful leaves and warm colors of autumn. I have several wreath ideas on my blog too, some using pine cones.
I’ve been loving our cooler mornings this week!
Loved this post! Bottles are very cute and do-able; also really nice to go back thru some of your past posts, the glassware painted with alcohol inks are really pretty. Keep up the good work and thank you!
Thanks, Mary!
