Succulent Wreaths for Fall

Despite what my mother says, I have never been the creative child in the family. That role always fell to my older sister. She makes all her own centerpieces and wreaths for all the different seasons and holidays. For Christmas one year she made me a wreath and it was beautiful.

After living with my sister for years I learned that wreaths are not just for Christmas but can be hung year around and make the appearance of your front door very welcoming to guests. While looking into making my own wreaths I came across living wreaths. I really loved the idea of having a living wreath and the wonderful scents that come with it.

After doing some research on the ease of making a wreath as well as longevity of the wreath I settled on succulents. There are so many varieties to choose from and they last for so long with very minimal maintenance. Succulents are also easy to find and you can buy cuttings of particular succulents you like as opposed to buying the whole plant.

These are some of the cuttings I have found online that I really loved and would like to incorporate into my fall wreath. 

I liked the look and density of this wreath as well as the bursts of color.

I also liked this one because of the color and the little tendril type cuttings that are coming off of it. The oranges, reds, and pinks are beautiful and would make for a great fall wreath. I have a green front door and I think this one would really stand out.

Wish me luck!
