All Saints wreathsis an annual tradition cultivated by Poles. They are a beautiful decoration as well as a symbol of death, resurrection and memory. Every year, when November is approaching, we start looking for interesting ideas for an All Saints wreath. Below you will find a few different ideashow to make wreaths for All Saints , their descriptions and photos.
All Saints wreaths don't have to be difficult to make. It is enough to use
ready base in the form of a wicker circle and attach a few accessories to it,
symbolizing our feeling towards the deceased person.

If we do not have an idea forhow to make wreaths for All Saints , this year, to modernize the tradition a bit, I propose All Saints wreaths based on ready-made wicker frames or made of wooden twigs bent appropriately. Thanks to the ready base, our wreath will be much easier and faster to make, thanks to which we will save our precious time.
Autumn wreath for All Saints
To make thisAll Saints wreathwe need: a base in the form of a wicker wreath painted with white paint, 3 types of artificial flowers (orange and 2 types of cream), artificial green leaves, pine cones and a floral wire (available at garden centers or flower shops).
Note! If the All Saints wreaths are to be permanent, we should use dried or artificial flowers for them. Live flowers will be quickly damaged by frost. Cones will be good and durable natural decorations.
The wicker base can be bought immediately painted white or the day before decorating, paint the wicker with white paint and leave it to dry overnight. Then we attach a floral wire to all artificial flowers, leaves and cones, with which we attach all the elements to the wreath. If you bought artificial flowers with a stem, cut it off and leave the flower alone. When all the elements have their wire, we can start arranging the accessories according to the attached photo. Let's try to make each element permanently and firmly attached to the wicker with a wire.

Wreath for All Saints with an elongated, asymmetrical composition
The base of thisAll Saints wreathcreates a frame made of naturally bleached twigs, if we do not find one, we can replace it with a straw frame (the most important thing is that the wreath should be naturally bright, as shown in the picture ).Decorative accessories: an artificial orchid sprout, dried amaranth inflorescence (or other inflorescence with a similarly stretched shape), 3 branches cleaned of bark and polished to white, a bow made of felted ribbon. All elements are attached to the wreath frame with a wire. As shown in the photo, first fix the 3 elongated twigs so that they cross below the frame and their ends protrude beyond the frame from the top. We put an orchid shoot on the twigs and weave an artificial amaranth inflorescence into it all. Finally, add a felt bow.

White wreath on All Saints made of ribbons
TenAll Saints' wreathseems difficult, but in fact it is really simple to make. We need: a white frame made of twigs or wicker, several types of satin and openwork ribbons of different widths (the more types the better!), With a different pattern and degree of transparency, 3 ready-made bows made of a wide ribbon and one bow made of thin openwork ribbon with long ends hot glue gun.
When we start wrapping the wreath with the ribbon, glue the beginning of the ribbon with hot glue to the frame. We wrap the frame not very tightly and finish it also by gluing the end of the ribbon with hot glue. Repeat the operation several times for each type of ribbon (as shown in the photo). Let's try to wrap the frame with ribbons to cover the individual gluing points. Finally, on the top of the wreath, glue 3 ribbons with hot glue, and under the middle one we attach a smaller openwork bow, so that its long ends hang through the center of the wreath.
These types of single-colorAll Saints wreathscan be made not only in white, but in the color that suits us, e.g. purple or red. Just choose the right ribbon.

All Saints wreath with red flowers
To make this wreath, we need a dark and thick wicker frame, 3-4 artificial leaves, 4 large and 3 smaller red flowers, a decorative red cord and a heart-shaped ornament (optional). This last elementof the All Saints wreathemphasizes that the person we put it on was close and loved to us. We will need hot glue to attach the elements.
First, attach the larger flowers to the top of the rack, tightly next to each other, then on the other side in the lower part, glue the 3 smaller flowers, also tightly next to each other. Glue artificial leaves next to the flowers. Finally, we weave a decorative cord, the beginning of which we stick under the larger flowers (so that this place is not visible) and we wrap it around the entire wreath. We also stick the end of the rope under the large flowers. A wreath made in this way could already be ready, unless, as in the photo, we decide to attach a heart-shaped ornament.

As you can see ideas forwreaths for All Saints' Dayis not missing, even if we make all of them on the basis of a ready-made wicker circle. The accessories we add on ourselves will have a strong meaning, symbolizing our feelings for the deceased. Even if such a wreath is modest, it is much more significant than a ready-made flower shop.
