With the holidays coming up, we’ve been looking forward to designing a new wreath for the season. To create this anemone holiday wreath, our designer Meagan added some gorgeous winter greenery and a few crepe paper anemones to our braided rope wreath. We love all of the various textures in this wreath and can’t wait to hang it up for the holidays!
Because this wreath combines different craft materials, we would say this is an intermediate craft project. The anemones are also a more advanced design. So if you’re a beginner, you may want to try this simple anemone pattern instead. As always, we recommend playing around with it and making it your own!
Asymmetrical Anemones
You may have noticed that we’ve been really into creating asymmetrical wreaths for Christmas lately! Last year, Meagan created this beautiful Scandi house and greenery wreath. And the year before that, we created this asymmetrical winter wreath.
Similar to those wreaths, today’s anemone holiday wreath has a very subtle holiday look to it. The gold berries plus white and black anemones also make it feel very elegant and modern. So if you’re wanting a more traditional Christmasy look, check out our paper Christmas wreath or our crepe paper poinsettia wreath.
Ready to start crafting your own anemone holiday wreath? Just grab the tools and materials listed below. Then download our winter greens template and step-by-step tutorial. Because the anemones and wreath are existing projects, we linked to them separately in the list of materials. Happy holiday crafting! ~ Lia and team

I LOVE this braided wreath and think it is the perfect “base” for seasonal additions. Perhaps I did not read directions thoroughly enough, but how do you suggest attaching the wooden beads in the original build so they can be removed, and then attach the next season’s adornment? This is especially important for those of us who have limited space to store the more than 30+ wreaths we want to make from your site 🙂
Hi Ann,
We would suggest trying glue dots as they have a strong hold and are not permanent!
