I can’t wait to show you this pretty Peony floral wreath we made today using supplies from our subscription box! It’s so fun to play with the berries, buds, branches, and blooms that come every month directly to your door. Half of the work is done for you. All of the supplies are picked for you and complement themselves perfectly.
This wreath is perfect, not only for Easter or Spring. It can be used anywhere that needs a beautiful floral wreath. Don’t miss the floral fun, let me show you how it’s done!
Pink Peony Floral Wreath
We all have super busy and packed lives. This is one more reason why I love our Berries, Buds, Branches, and Blooms Subscription Box! It delivers all the beautiful florals, greenery, and filler flowers that you will need. Sometimes even two depending on the size, a beautiful wreath.
Using these gorgeous pink Peonies and a few bright and cheery wildflower bushes we can put together a wreath that is perfect for Spring or Easter. It can also work for any other occasion that simply calls for a stunning floral piece!
The bright pink Peonies are the star of the show, and not to be outdone are the mix of wonderful wildflowers. There are so many colors with bright yellows, purple, white, and just enough pink to tie into the Peony. Our design has so much depth and dimension with the thoughtful placement of the filler flowers.
As always, taking the time to “shake hands” with each element makes sure the blossoms are facing upward. Paying attention to the surrounding wildflowers that are coming forward makes a huge difference in the overall design. I can’t wait for you to dive into this subscription box and create your own!

Ingredients
Directions
- Start with the yellow berry flower filler bush and cut it into smaller pieces. “Shake hands” with each stem and flower to separate and bring the bush to life. Tear the mixed wildflower bush into separate pieces and trim off the paper and stems on the bottom. “Shake hands” with the bush.
- Dip the ends a yellow berry stem and build your perimeter by inserting into the grapevine base. Workaround the base adding a yellow berry flower stem every few inches. Cover any hot glue with Spanish moss.
- Add some wild-flower stems in between, hot gluing one stem right behind each yellow flower stem around the perimeter. Keep adding stems, preferably with ferns, from your wildflower bunch in the open spaces in between.
- Grab another mixed wildflower bush and pink wildflower bush and tear into separate stems. Trim the excess stems and paper from the bottom to clean them up.
- Add a mixed flower stem with hot glue behind the previous wildflower stems. Work your way around the perimeter.
- Start adding the pink wildflower stems around the perimeter, evenly distributed. Cover any exposed glue with Spanish moss.
- Push the leaves up towards the Peony blooms on your bush. Trim down to about a 3” stem. Separate the Peony heads by size.
- Try tucking the larger blooms in first at a slight angle around the inside of the wreath base, evenly spaced. Add the smaller blooms in between the larger ones. Once you are happy with the placement, hot glue them in. Adjust the flower heads to face up.
- Fill in any gaps or holes with some wildflower stems saved previously. Stay with the same flow and break some of the straight lines in the center with wildflower stems. Adjust the outer wildflowers to point up and inward if necessary.
Wreath Making Tip
Once I’ve added the star of the show pink Peony, I like to break up the straight line they are in. I do this by adding some wildflower stems we set aside at the beginning.
We are still working within the same direction and flow of the wreath design. This will soften the lines where the darker leaves of the Peony petals seem to dominate. It will also integrate it more with the rest of the surrounding wildflowers. This helps to hide any exposed mechanics that may still be visible. It’s such a great tip to use in any wreath you create!

Ingredients
Directions
- Start by finding cutting the styrofoam so it is nestled inside of the Green Frankenstein Bucket so that it sits nicely inside and glue down. I like to use both Gorilla Glue and Hot Glue to really secure it for both now and long term.
- Cut Black Garland Base into small sections and set your base, spreading for maximum coverage.
- Prep your picks by grabbing your Purple Green Orange Felt Ball Twig Sprays. Sseparating them into smaller picks. You can also twist the black chenille around your finger to create a fun effect.
- Trim your Glitter Eye Ball Picks and add to the stryofoam. Be sure to space them for the best visual display.
- Cut and prep the White Black Chenille Curly Stems add some dimension to them by curling with your fingers to really give them life.
- Stem back and look at your your centerpiece. Are thier bald or blank spaces? Fluff you black garland to fill and use the wires in your products from Keleas.com to really get the pieces where you want them.
- Grab one of your Glitter Curly Velvet Ball Picks and trim the stem down to a couple of inches. Fluff out your pick, and then place it to the left of your bow, tucking it behind the bow to have it peek out from behind it.
