Discounted Easter items remade into an extremely inexpensive, but very pretty summer wreath
Make a summer wreath from Easter sales! Shown above is a gorgeous wreath that I re-created, using heavily discounted Easter-themed items. Don’t be afraid to buy Easter items on sale, deconstruct them, and then reconstruct them to your heart’s content!
Easter items on sale made a great summer wreath!
These three items shown above, originally priced for a total of $41.00 at Big Lots, cost me a total of $10.25 on sale after Easter.

For instance the Easter wreath I bought was originally $20, but was later marked down to $5. I literally tore out what I didn’t like on the original Easter wreath, and then re-created it into something more understated for summer. I pretty much destroyed that Flowers & Garden container, pulling out the lavender artificial flowers and greenery to add and interweave into the wreath.
From Easter wreath to summer wreath
All it took was a pair or scissors, wire cutters, and some imagination. Oh yeah, and some vacuuming once I was finished, because my worktable was completely littered with bits of wreath, styrofoam, and destroyed artificial flora.
Summer wreath crafted after Easter…ready to put on the door!
But the result! Considering that my summer wreath, once re-created to my liking, only cost $10.25, I was pretty darned pleased. Similar summer wreaths from stores start at around $40, and can cost far more, such as those shown at Amazon or at Wayfair. Plus, there’s the satisfaction that I made something with my hands and tailored it to my liking.
On my front door…an inexpensive summer wreath crafted from Easter sales.
If you decide to make a summer wreath from Easter sales, then you might be as pleased as I was. It’s a great way to get creative on a budget. Of course, you also get to show off your creativity by hanging your gorgeous summer wreath on your front door.
