Autumn is the time of colour, harvest and cosy get-togethers. What could be better than celebrating the magic of this time of year in your home with a homemade decoration? With these simple step-by-step instructions, I'll show you how to create an enchanting autumn wreath with a decorative wind light in just a few simple steps. This DIY decoration will not only brighten up your home, but will also turn slight melancholy into pure autumn joy.
Step 1: Prepare the floristry
First, take the side cutter and cut your floristry materials to fit the straw wreath perfectly. A side cutter is a tool specially designed to cut wire and fine materials cleanly. This gives you a stable base for your arrangement.

Step 2: Tie the wreaths
Now take your floristry material, moss and acorns and tie them securely around the straw wreath using wrapping wire. The wrapping wire ensures that everything stays firmly in place while remaining flexible so that it can be adjusted as desired.

Step 3: Add the toadstools
Next, plugs the small toadstools attached to a wire into your wreaths. These little splashes of colour symbolise autumn and add playful accents to your creation.

Step 4: Attach the scatter decorations
Use the hot glue to evenly distribute the scatter decorations in the shape of maple leaves in your wreaths. The hot glue will ensure that they stay securely in place and give your wreaths extra volume and colour.

Step 5: Decorate the storage jar
Take the jute ribbon and carefully stick it around the storage jar. Jute ribbon gives your project a rustic touch that perfectly matches the cosy autumn. Then tie the paper wire around the jar several times and twist it creatively. Make sure to wrap the ends of the wire around a round object so that they form a beautiful spiral.

Step 6: Arrange the artificial flowers
Place a small bunch of artificial flowers in the centre of your storage jar and twist the paper wire to hold everything together. The artificial flowers add colour and give your work a lively charm.

Step 7: Position the wreaths and glass
To make your glass stand out, place one or more tree slices in the wreaths and place the glass on top. The tree discs will make the glass stand out visually and integrate it harmoniously into your overall design.

Step 8: Final details
Optionally, you can hot glue additional scatter decorations in the form of maple leaves to the jute ribbon to add the finishing touches to your glass. Done!
