DIY Easter Ribbon Wreath!
I ran across a great supply of novelty Easter ribbon. So, with Easter on my mind, I created a pretty DIY Easter Ribbon Wreath!
This colorful wreath was created using a sweet collection of Easter ribbons and a whole ton of pastel plastic Easter eggs! And it is surprisingly easy to make!
For this project I used:
Colorful novelty Easter ribbons
16″ straw wreath form
Lime green mesh ribbon
72 plastic Easter Eggs (from the dollar store)
One silk flower
wire
hot glue
Wrap the ribbon around the circumference of an egg and cut it the length needed.
Add hot glue along the circumference of the egg and glue the ribbon around it.
Then do this 72 two more times! Ha! I used mostly the medium and narrow ribbons to wrap the eggs and saved the widest ribbons for the bow.
What a pretty mess of egg and color!
Use the mesh ribbon to wrap the wreath form. I used a pin to hold the mesh at the beginning of the wrap and pushed in another pin at the end.
Now the fun part! Start hot gluing eggs to the wreath form! Cover the very front first and then start working around the edges. The eggs don’t go as far as you might think, so cover the important areas first. Turn the eggs this way and that while gluing them down and be sure to mix up the colors as best as you can.
Take any leftover ribbons (the wide ones and any leftover narrow ones) and wrap the ends together with wire.
Glue the wired end to the top of the wreath and cover the wire with a pretty silk flower. The final touch is to clip the ribbons at angles at the bottom to neaten them up.
Easter has finally come to chez Suzy! Believe it or not, I had to take down a Christmas wreath to hang this one. Yep, I know. Christmas was months ago! Just shows how organized I am. The mailman is going to be so proud of me!

Suzy this is sooo cute! What a difference a ribbon makes. Would love if you joined Friday Favorites over at http://notatrophywife.com. Party starts Thursday night and runs through the weekend. laura
I like polka dots you can’t go wrong with them. However I really like the Rabbit one. Does the rabbit come in any other colors? Anyway this is a very cute wreath. Happy Easter!
GL everyone
I LOVE this project! It’s so cute. I’ve never made a wreath before but I’m going to try this.
Since I’m really wanting to make this I love the Chocolate Bunny Chevron 18 Yd Easter Grosgrain Ribbon Lot you used, or the Hoppity Easter Bunny Ribbon Lot 16 Yd Grosgrain Ribbon Lot is really cute too for Easter.
As usual You have rocked it! Love all the pretty ribbons on the wreath. I have some pretty paper scraps that might work for wrapping around the eggs. I’ll have to try it out on a couple. I can’t really afford to buy that much ribbon at this time but I might be able to work something out with other materials I have on hand!
Thanks for the great idea, Suzy!

I love anything purple! I think the Chocolate Bunny’s are cute. The wreath you made is awesome!
I would absolutely go crazy trying to decide which ones to get. They are great!
The Scottie Dog Pink and Black Ribbon is my favorite.
189 YARDS of Ribbon – 1 yard of Every Solid and Polka Dot Ribbon
So many excellent choices but my favorite is the Glitter Spider lot!! I love it!
Love the sunny rainbow lot!
I love the spring time butterfly lot! Would be perfect for an Easter and a spring wreath!
While I loved all the polka dots, I followed a link to the glitter ribbon too…its all really wonderful and your wreath is amazing. Great creative touches
I love the glitter ribbon…though all the various printed ribbon are exciting for seasonal crafts! rabbits, Halloween (witches and cauldrons)…
I love all the dots and solids. You can use them for so many different projects. Thanks for the giveaway. Jackie
I love the 105 YARDS Polka Dot 7/8 inch Grosgrain Ribbon Lot
I love the simple swiss dot grossgrain. And I also love the sweetie pie lot! I think I might just have to make this wreath too! IIt’s so cute!!
HI Suzys I really like this website. I think my favorite is Spring Print Lot or the Pastel Colors Lot 22 Yds. Its hard to decide they have so many beautiful ribbons.
I like the 3/8 inch solid grosgrain because I can do alot with this basic group. The wreath is very cute:)
I love the Watermelon Slices lot!
Striped Ribbon 23 Yard Ribbon Lot
&
Super Striped 7/8 inch 14 yard Grosgrain Ribbon Lot
&
NEW Chevron Ribbon Lot 12 yard 1-1/2 inch and 7/8 inch Grosgrain
😀 😀
Kinda liked the grouping called GLITTER SPIDERS. But next to those- the neon animal prints- I did take some time hunting through the groupings as well- sadly I couldn’t find any musical themed ones. 🙁 ….Did I miss them?
PS–Love your wreath and will be making it for my daughter-in-law !
There are too many to choose and say that I have one favorite. They are all beautiful. I have never heard of this website before,thank you for posting it. will probably be visiting in near future.
I love the MTMG bright tulip frog!
What a cute wreath. All the ribbons are pretty, but I love the chocolate bunny chevron ribbon.
I loved the swiss dot ribbon assortment. Those cute little dots make me smile. Thanks for offering this neat drawing of adorable Easter ribbon. It has been a long winter and I enjoyed seeing your Easter wreath also.
Love them all, but I would pick the black and white paw print or the red paw print. Thanks for the giveaway!
Love the pink and purple with the tiny dots, all lovely colors
I love the pastels and the the polka dots ribbon. The things I could make out of these ribbons.
Your wreath is beautiful! All of the ribbons are very pretty, but I like the Neon Animal Prints the best. Thanks!
I love the Easter ribbons!
Love all of them. There are so many to choose from. I think I like the chevron ribbons best.
$9.50 28 yard Pink and Red Valentine’s Day Lot. My fave, untill I found the St Patricks day ribbons. Actually they are all great!
Bright Tulip Frog if I had to choose just one. I love the polka dot ribbons in pastels for the Easter wreath you’ve shown.
PS: The wreath is awesome! I love the simplicity of wrapping the ribbon around the egg. Simple, yet very effective!
I love the 105 yards of polka dot 7/8″ grosgrain, the 110 yards 7/8″ solid grosgrain, and the Red Paw Print 17 yard ribbon lot. I always end up making many GA Dogs dresses and outfits!!
I love ALL ribbons but I think I would like a solid color so it could be used for more than just Easter. I also like the wider ribbon mainly for the same reasoning. So my favorite is the 110 YARDS of Solid 1-1/2 inch Grosgrain Ribbon Lot. I had a hard time deciding between the 110 YARDS of 7/8 inch Solid Grosgrain Ribbon and the one i actually picked. I am still not sure I picked the right one haha
My favorite lot was 189 YARDS of Ribbon – 1 yard of Every Solid and Polka Dot Ribbon.
Chicago Bears one of my favorites. Easter set as well. I love them all. If I could I would like to have them all. Lol
I like so many it’s awfully hard to choose! But for a variety to make the Easter Egg wreatrh I think I would try it with the “Let It Snow Snowman Chevron Christmas 18 yard Ribbon Lot” set. Though that name really is in Easter colors. lol Your wreath is really very nice! You have such an imagination and such creativity! Thanks for this opportunity.
Solids? Polka Dots? Solids? Polka Dots? Oh, WHY choose when I love them all? My favorite lot is the 189 yards of every kind of ribbon! I have a two-year-old granddaughter and I know how to make some ribbon hair clips from when my daughter was little, but winning the ribbons used in the wreath would let me make a smaller wreath AND make some Easter hair clips for my granddaughter. (Thanks for the opportunity.) Win/Win! I’ve got to go back and look at all the ribbon on the Hairbow Supplies, Etc. site… 😀
Swiss Dot 3/8 inch Grosgrain Ribbon 🙂
Love the polka dot ribbons in the pastels……my little girls always go for them…….going to buy plastic eggs…..love the Easter wreath
I like the “fun in the sun” ribbons!
I have not been the Hairbow website before…I do appreciate the way they have “grouped” ribbons to help the consumer. I particularly like the collegiate series. The school where I work is reb and blue, Broncos (like the Denver Broncos)…I would love to see a Bronco ribbon!
I love the swiss dot ribbon or maybe the chocolate bunny chevron. I just can’t decide… LOL! 🙂
Really, which “one”???
LOLOLOL
I am a ribbon nut, so anyone any time, in any amount.
Even snippets.
Love it all.
**U**
Nance
OK IF I had to pick just one, all the colors of the Swiss dot.
Too too fun!
Yes it is!
I looovee the wreath!! Would love to make one myself! Is this giveaway open worldwide???
Grosgrain ribbon in solid is my choice…
