Making a summer wreath for front door style

by Lynn Butterfield 07/03/2024

To add instant seasonal style, consider adding a summer wreath for front door decoration. Wreaths can be made of far more than just flowers and greenery - especially if you add a fun summer twist. To get the inspiration flowing, here are some summer wreath ideas to consider:

Traditional summer wreaths

 A traditional wreath is arranged in a circular shape, typically with a mixture of natural materials like branches and flowers. In summer, you’ll find wreaths boasting bright and cheerful colors, sometimes mixing fresh and dried elements.

Upcycle your old flip-flops & then some

If you’re interested in a fun new take on a summer wreath, try finding ways to personalize them with your own summer inspiration. For example, one great idea is to take an old pair of summer sandals and attach them to a wreath base with hot glue or twine. Mix in your choice of fresh or artificial greenery for a casual beach vibe.

Beautiful with seasonal flowers & plants

A succulent wreath is another wonderful way to bring seasonal color and texture to your front door. Try a wreath with a mixture of rosette-shaped succulent varieties for a hardy and trendy spin on a flower wreath. 

Alternatively, decorate with vibrant summer citrus fruits like oranges, lemons and limes. If you use branches from real fruit trees, you can enjoy the added bonus of a pleasant scent every time you open your front door.

Getting creative with your front door decor

Don’t be afraid to think beyond wreaths for summer door decor. Any kind of summer-like motif can be an inspiring and cheerful addition to your home’s entry, and provide a multitude of DIY projects. For example, try combining wooden initials with festive gingham-print ribbons to evoke a personal picnic.

The possibilities for decorating your front door are endless. Keep these ideas in mind as a way to get started with your outdoor summer decor.
