Two minutes.
No glue necessary.
Under $10.
I have had this twig wreath on hand for years. Michaels had these garlands on sale for $3.99. I purchased two.
All I did was wrap the two garlands around the wreath tucking in their ends and . . .VIOLA! Spring Wreath!

This is a lovely wreath, the garland is perfect for a touch of Spring!
Looks like a sunny greeting-Happy Spring:@)
Many years ago I was at a nature park with some youth I worked with. The nature leader taught me how to make those wreaths..imagine my delight when I found these vines in my backyard.. so much fun! I often make wreaths for the different seasons.. I love yours!
I LIKE its freeform look! If you had taken acutal forsythia branches and twisted them together, that's probably about what it would look like (except it would have taken a LOT longer than two minutes). Did you see the fabulous forsythia arrangements in the Metropolitan Museum in February?
Wonderful! I like taking an old wreath and giving it new life. Thanks for sharing.
Blessings,
Sandi
Love your simple wreath. Those yellow forsythia leaves just scream SPRING!! Love it.
MY KINDA WREATH !! Great great great. Yellow is my Easter color this year, and you wreath is TOTALLY INSPIRING.
Ok. let me share also: ... For variations on your theme, see my wreaths here: equally simple, but with a different look:

Perfect spring wreath!! I change mine up with all the seasons too! :)
This looks great, Carmie! Can't get any easier than that!
I'm sorry I haven't been by, but for some reason I was having a problem when I was on your blog page {it would freeze up} for about a week. It seems to be okay today, so I guess it was nothing serious.
so cute & festive!

Very pretty. Michael's actually has that type of twig wreath on sale right now, too. I think for $5.00. I may go snag one up and use you idea. Love that it took minutes and NO glue! Visiting from Serenity Now.
I love it. Those yellow flowers are very 'springy'. Visiting from Punkin Seed's Party.

Yay! I am all about quick crafts that I can display and enjoy. Love forsythias! :)
The wreath is lovely. Do you do a wreath for your door for all seasons? I do--they just say "Welcome" to me. Love the yellow flowers. I have those same ones in stems in a large pot on my front porch.
