This DIY spring wreath with lamb's ear and peonies is honestly the easiest craft you'll tackle this season! It's the perfect pop of color for your front door!
Hi friends! I'm so excited that pink is making its way back into my home decor, because it's one of my favorite colors … and it pulls me out of my end-of-winter funk.
I love how it complements the turquoise and brightens up my neutrals. So I decided to make a wreath with bright pink peonies and soft green lamb's ear. Even though I made this wreath years ago, it still goes up on my front door at the first hint of spring!
The reason for the double crafting is that my favorite source for lamb's ear sold out last year, so I had to buy it from an online vendor I'd never used before. The quality was OK, but I LOVE the lamb's ear stems from Hobby Lobby the most.

This year I have a TON of lamb's ear from Hobby Lobby left over after decorating my Christmas tree with it. I wanted a vibrant pink floral wreath for spring, so it's a win-win!
So while my two wreaths look similar, I love this one so much more! Let's just say my lamb's ear and peony wreath evolved into a better version of itself this year. (But I love the little "welcome" sign in last year's wreath, so I'm keeping it and putting it somewhere in my home.)
The process was super quick, and I recorded it on video so you can see exactly how easy it is. I use very technical terms like "not so wild and crazy" and "don't like where it's sticking up."

Directions to Make Your Simple Spring Wreath
The process is really that easy.
1. Cut down the floral stems and layer them into the wreath.
Use your floral wire cutter to trim the stems to a manageable length, then start layering them into the wreath.
First layer: The first layer is the lamb's ear. I drew an imaginary line down the middle of the wreath and filled one side with lamb's ear. I didn't fill it completely, but left a few gaps for my peonies.
Second layer: Next I added the peonies. I tried to use just 5 blooms, but they didn't look quite right, so I added a sixth, and it was perfect.
Third layer: I filled in all the empty spaces with the smaller blooms and called it done!
2. Hot glue everything into place
Once everything was where I wanted it, I went back through with hot glue and secured it all in place!
You're done!
I hung it on the front door because I plan to keep it up there all spring long. It's been my go-to spring wreath for years now, even since I moved to a new home with a different style.

The plaid door mat can be found here and here! (It depends on where it's in stock at the time.) And the "Come in + Get Cozy" rug can be found here.
But then I brought it inside and set it on the mantel to keep it out of reach of the kids, and I love it up there! I may just call it a happy accident and use something else for the front door.
I love how this project turned out, and how simple it was!
You'll love your wreath for years to come if you try it too!
