If you haven’t noticed, I am all about some lemons this year! I love the way they add such a pretty punch of color to people’s Spring decor, and I just think they are so fun to work with! I had been seeing different lemon wreaths around, and I wanted one! They weren’t what I would call expensive ($20 or so), but I knew I could make one for myself and feel like I had really done something, so the thrill of that (who uses the word thrill when talking about making a wreath??? LOL) was more exciting to me than just going out and purchasing one! So I tried my hand at my very own DIY Lemon Wreath!
If you follow me on Facebook, you know I love to use grapevine wreaths. They are so versatile, and you can get them everywhere for dirt cheap! I find them at thrift stores, consignment, booth malls, etc… You can also buy them at craft stores, although you will pay a little higher price.
This one is one that I have had for a while. I have used it on countless projects, and I just re-do it when I am tired of the existing one!
Here is what I used for this project:
6 lemons from the Dollar Tree
2 vine garlands from Dollar Tree
Grapevine Wreath
Hot Glue Gun
To start, I simply took my vine and wrapped it around my wreath. Simple as that.
Then, I started hot gluing my lemons onto my vine pieces and my wreath- just wherever I thought they looked the best and would stick the best.
When I was done, I had a finished DIY Lemon wreath! It was quick, simple and turned out super cute!
PIN THIS DIY LEMON WREATH FOR LATER!!!

Pretty yellow but it needs more lemons and lemon leaves. But that’s just me. It needs 7 or 9 lemons. Even numbers just don’t work. I love that you shared with us!
We need to see the finished inside of the house you reno’d.
Thanks for sharing all your ideas
Donna says
Sorry you have 7…somehow it needs more.
Brooke Riley says
Thank you, Donna! I really wanted it to be super simple, so I didn’t want to over do it! 🙂
Katherine says
I agree it needs something else. I am not a fan of the garlands at DT
Brooke Riley says
Thanks 🙂

I like it! It is meant to be seen from a distance. Have you ever seen a lemon tree? They are spaced apart like Brooke made her wreath. I was brought up if: You don’t have anything nice to say, Don’t say it!
