Handmade Halloween wreath ideas! Popular crafts you can make with everyday materials (21–30)
A wreath made from cardboard
This is an easy-to-make wreath that uses cardboard as the base.
One of its appeals is that you can adjust the size of the circle to create a wreath that’s easy to display.
Cut the cardboard into a ring shape and wrap it with colorful fleece yarn.
Since you wrap it to cover the entire piece of cardboard, it won’t end up looking cheap—that’s another highlight.
After that, just attach some ornaments and you’re done: a simple process that still results in a gorgeous wreath.
The overall vibe changes a lot depending on what colors you wrap, so it might be fun to try a variety of color combinations.
Paper flower wreath
A wreath made of origami paper flowers is a decoration that lets you enjoy the uniquely matte texture of colored paper and is sure to shine.
It’s easy to make—just attach flowers in Halloween-inspired colors to a wreath base made from colored construction paper.
However, since you’ll use scissors to shape the petals, be sure an adult helps if you’re crafting with children who aren’t yet comfortable with these tools.
This recommended wreath will brighten up Halloween with its colorful paper flowers.

Mini Lease
You can easily make a Halloween wreath just by combining items sold at 100-yen shops.
These days, 100-yen shops carry a wide variety of materials for decorations, so even just hunting for ornaments that fit the Halloween theme can be fun.
Attaching your favorite picks to the wreath base is an activity that could be exciting to do with children.
However, since you’ll need scissors and a glue gun to work efficiently, we recommend that an adult take the lead on the crafting.
Wreaths made with wire
This is a wreath made primarily with artificial flowers in Halloween-inspired colors.
By decorating the wreath with artificial flowers in autumnal shades like red and orange, you can create a vibrant piece perfect for the Halloween season.
Since ornaments are secured to the leaf base with wire, an adult should assist if small children are doing the craft.
Even if it doesn’t go well at first or you want to change the design after finishing, the wire makes it easy to remove and adjust, so it’s recommended for those who aren’t confident in crafting.
origami wreath
This is about combining origami to make a large ring, a wreath.
Using two colors of origami paper, you make four jack-o’-lanterns and four black cats, then assemble them together.
By interlocking them alternately, you form a large ring.
Although it’s a lightweight finished piece made from origami, the motifs are folded firmly so they stand out, giving the work a three-dimensional feel.
Orange and black make the concept easy to understand, but changing the colors of the paper can create a different kind of charm and might be fun to try.
Paper plate Halloween wreath
A Halloween wreath you can start making easily with materials you likely have on hand.
Cut out the center of a paper plate to form the wreath base, then simply stick on randomly cut pieces of origami paper or masking tape to create a colorful background.
If you want to add a special touch, you can make classic Halloween motifs like bats or ghosts from colored construction paper and glue them on for originality.
It’s a fun craft to make with young children and highly recommended.
elongated wreath
Instead of the typical circular decoration people imagine when they hear “wreath,” this is a vertically designed Halloween wreath.
Make the wreath base with a longer garland: form a circle, then let the extra length hang straight down from the bottom to create a tall, slender wreath that looks different from the usual style.
If you decorate not only the circular part but also the garland that extends downward, you’ll have a lively, festive decoration.
It’s a craft that will come in handy not just for Halloween but for many different events, so give it a try!
In conclusion
Why not enjoy creating Halloween decor with a handmade wreath that reflects your style? From simple to elaborate, you can craft a one-of-a-kind wreath using your favorite materials and decorations.
Bring a warm, handcrafted touch to your home and set the scene for a wonderful Halloween season.
