Tutorial: DIY Eco-Friendly Glittery Halloween Wreath Tutorial

Materials You’ll Need:

• Eco-friendly wreath base: Opt for a wreath base made from natural, biodegradable materials like straw, bamboo, or repurposed wood.
• Luminosity Glitter: Choose from our range of biodegradable glitter in Halloween colors like black, orange, purple, and silver.
• Natural decorations: Gather natural elements like dried leaves, twigs, pinecones, and acorns. These can be foraged from your local area and add an earthy touch to your wreath.
• Eco-friendly adhesive: Use a plant-based glue or a biodegradable adhesive that’s strong enough to hold your decorations in place.
• Reusable decorations: Consider using small items you already have at home, such as mini pumpkins, fabric scraps, or old Halloween ornaments that can be upcycled.
• Recycled ribbon or twine: For hanging your wreath, choose ribbon or twine made from recycled materials.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Prepare Your Wreath Base
Start by selecting a wreath base made from sustainable materials. If you have a plain wreath at home, you can upcycle it by wrapping it in natural twine or fabric. This will provide a sturdy foundation for your decorations.

2. Gather Your Natural Elements
Take a nature walk and gather dried leaves, twigs, pinecones, and acorns. These items will add texture and a rustic feel to your wreath. Plus, they’re completely biodegradable!

3. Apply Your Glitter
Using your eco-friendly adhesive, carefully apply Luminosity Glitter to your natural elements. For a subtle shimmer, lightly dust the edges of leaves and pinecones. For a bolder look, completely coat small twigs or acorns in glitter. Allow them to dry thoroughly before moving on to the next step.

4. Arrange Your Decorations
Start arranging your natural and glittered elements on the wreath base. You can create clusters of glittery leaves, sprinkle pinecones around the wreath, or position twigs in a starburst pattern. Play with the layout until you’re happy with the design.

5. Secure Everything in Place
Once you’ve arranged your decorations, secure them to the wreath base using the eco-friendly adhesive. If you’re using twine or ribbon, you can also tie items in place for added stability.

6. Add Reusable Decorations
Incorporate any reusable decorations you have, such as small pumpkins or fabric scraps. These can be attached using the same adhesive or tied on with recycled twine. This not only adds a unique touch to your wreath but also promotes reusing and repurposing materials.

7. Attach the Hanging Ribbon
Finally, cut a length of recycled ribbon or twine and attach it to the top of your wreath. This will be used to hang your creation. Make sure it’s secure enough to hold the weight of the wreath.

8. Display Your Eco-Friendly Halloween Wreath
Your eco-friendly glittery Halloween wreath is now complete! Hang it on your front door, above your fireplace, or anywhere else you want to add a touch of sustainable spookiness to your home.

Why Choose Eco-Friendly Glitter?

Traditional glitter is made from plastic and can take hundreds of years to break down, contributing to environmental pollution. Luminosity Glitter, on the other hand, is made from biodegradable materials that are safe for the planet. By choosing eco-friendly glitter, you’re making a small but impactful step toward reducing your environmental footprint.

Creating an eco-friendly glittery Halloween wreath is a fun and creative way to celebrate the season while being mindful of the environment.
