How to make a Christmas bauble wreath

Traditional Christmas wreaths are made by twisting evergreen branches into a circular shape and then decorating them with pinecones and a red bow, but Christmas bauble wreaths adapt this to use vibrant coloured baubles with glitter and often bows. Christmas bauble wreaths are highly popular these days, with many people choosing to jazz up their front doors at Christmas time with colourful wreaths. 

Getting stuck into fun Christmassy crafts with your loved ones is a great way to get into the yuletide mood at that time of the year. But after the season has come and gone, where can you store Christmas bauble wreaths?

At Magenta Self Storage, we are self storage specialists with many loyal customers using our stores for business storage and personal storage purposes all year round. As Christmas storage experts, we have come up with some pointers on how to make a Christmas bauble wreath. 

Making your own DIY Christmas bauble wreath – Step-by-step

The run-up to Christmas is exciting, but preparations, decorating your home to the nines, and gift buying can all get expensive. What’s the point of forking out shedloads of money on Christmas bauble wreaths and other decorations when making them at home yourself is so simple? 

At Magenta, we know just how much everyone loves their extravagant eye-catching Christmas time decorations, and we see many people decide to store their Christmas decor at our handy self storage facilities. Our team Magenta Self Storage has come up with step-by-step guidance on how to make your own DIY Christmas bauble wreath at home.

Gather a selection of Christmas baubles together 

Firstly, think about the types of baubles you want to use for your Christmas wreath. What Christmassy colours would you prefer? Glitter or no glitter? What bauble sizes will look good? 

Snip the strings of the baubles

Baubles tend to come with wires or cotton strings, be sure to snip these off since you don’t want them getting in the way when making your DIY Christmas bauble wreath.

Thread the baubles onto a wire and create clusters

The next step is to cut a straight section of wire spool with scissors, and you can then thread the baubles through the wire and twist it at the end to make secure bauble clusters.

Add bows or ribbons to your bauble clusters

Before attaching your bauble clusters to the wreath, why not add some glamorous Christmas-themed bows or ribbons to it? It could really help to spruce it up and give you that Christmas feeling inside. 

Attach the bauble clusters onto a wreath frame base

You can get yourself a ready-made wire wreath frame base, or you can make one out of a coat hanger. Then, you attach the bauble clusters you made to the wireframe, which will serve as the wreath’s base to hang the baubles on in a circle.

Alternatively, you can choose to use a polystyrene wreath and use super glue to attach the baubles.

And there you have it! You should now have a perfect bauble wreath made by yours truly.
