Last week I shared with you my updated dining room. I still owe you some tutorials and they are coming, but first I was finishing up my dining room! There were a few more elements I wanted to add to really finish up the tablescape. I recently got a Cottom Stem Wreath that I paired with my DIY rustic window. After hanging it and being so in love with it, my wheels starting turning and thinking how a smaller version would look cute hanging on my new dining table chairs. I came up with an easy, if somewhat time-consuming way, to make my own DIY Cotton Ball Wreath, affordably? Read on!

I thought it would be easiest to share how I made the wreaths via video. If you have any questions, leave them in the comments below.

Note: I did try two different ways to add the pinecone pieces to the wreath – the first is what you see in the video. The second way was to add the cotton ball blossoms, and prior to filling in the empty spaces, add in the pinecone pieces around the blossoms. Fill in the empty spaces with the cotton balls and fill in any necessary spots with pinecones. I found it easier to not overdue the pinecone pieces the second way, but both ended up with pretty wreaths, so do what makes sense to you!

I made one wreath for all 8 of my dining room chairs, all for under $30! And I could have actually made another 4. Plus, they’re super adorable, right? What do you think, will you be making your own DIY Cotton Ball Wreath?

Honestly, the hardest part of the whole procedure is breaking the pinecones! Some were simple, others took forever, and my fingers did take a bit of a beating, but in the end, totally worth it!
