Fall is my favorite time of year and technically doesn’t start until September 23rd this year. But to be honest, once the Pumpkin Spice Lattes at Starbucks come out, it’s basically fall. Am I right??

Even though it’s a little early, I couldn’t help but create a transitional summer to fall wreath. I decided to do a fall gold ring wreath using modern plum and blush tones, which I totally love!

If you aren’t into the traditional orange and yellow tones or maybe you want to try a different color palette this year….using purple, plum and pink tones is a great alternative to try!

Materials and tools to make a DIY Fall Gold Hoop Wreath.

Step 1: Trim Stems and Flowers

To get started, you will first need to trim your stems and florals to the length you want for your wreath. Using a good pair of wire cutters will make cutting through the faux stems quick and easy!

Purple lambs ear and eucalyptus stems for a fall wreath. — I first started trimming the main stems that would frame my wreath, which was the purple lambs ear, eucalyptus, and mimosa spray stems.

Berry stems for a DIY Modern Fall Gold Hoop Wreath. — When trimming the berry stems and the blue billy buttons, I kept several inches of stem length below the flowers.

Pink Roses from Hobby Lobby for a DIY Fall Wreath. — For the pink roses and two large plum dahlias, I trimmed at the base of the flower and removed all of the stems. The plan is to hot glue the base of the flowers directly onto the wreath at the end.

Step 2: Attach Greenery to Gold Ring

Yay! It’s time to start building the wreath!

I first started by figuring out the exact placement for the first layer of greenery (purple lambs ear). I like to keep an open space at the top to show off the gold hoop and pre-measure the overall length/look before securing anything down.

Secure purple lambs ear stems to the gold hoop wreath. — Once I find the placement and look that I like, I used floral wire to wrap the purple lamb’s ear stem onto each side of the gold hoop.

Use floral wire to secure the purple lambs ear to the gold hoop. — When wrapping the floral wire, make sure to wrap it tightly and cut off any excess wire at the end.

Layer the purple lambs ear with the purple mimosa spray stems. — The next layer of greenery I added was the purple mimosa spray stems.

Place the greenery first around the gold hoop wreath. — I made sure to cut the length of the purple mimosa spray stems so that the end of each stem lined up at the center point of the wreath. And after that was secure, I layered the seeded eucalyptus last.

I left the bottom center open, which will be covered by the flowers. I love the look of mixing the purple lambs ear with the other stems, which gives it more of that fall feel.

Step 3: Hot glue Center Flowers

After all the greenery is attached, it is time to attach the flowers!

DIY Modern Fall Gold Hoop Wreath. Hot glue the plum dahlias at the bottom center of the gold hoop wreath. — The first set of flowers I attached were the two large plum dahlias and used hot glue to secure them to the bottom center of the wreath.

Next hot glue the pink roses next to the plum dahlias at the center of the gold hoop wreath. — The next flowers I attached were the pink roses. I hot glued these flowers on each side of the plum ones. Play around with the placement and see what looks best to you!

Add texture to the fall wreath by adding berry cluster stems. — The next floral pieces I added were the blush and eggplant berry stems. I played around with the placement and tucked them into the greenery. Once I found the perfect placement, I secured them down with hot glue.

Give more texture and a modern look to your fall wreath by adding blue billy buttons. — To give the wreath a more modern look, I decided to add these blue billy button stems too. It complimented the plum tones well and added some fun texture to the wreath. You will need to play around with the placement and figure out where it will blend in best.

Use hot glue to add your billy button and berry cluster stems. — When attaching the blue billy buttons, I kept the stem longer and used hot glue to attach it to the gold hoop wreath. You could use floral wire too but felt the hot glue was easier and would prevent any wire from showing.

You could also remove all of the stems and glue down the blue button balls directly on top of the wreath. Do whatever you find easiest for you!

Your DIY Modern Fall Gold Hoop Wreath is done. All the faux flowers and greenery are from Hobby Lobby. — Here she is all done! Isn’t she pretty?!
