With fall coming up, I thought I would show you how to make a new wreath that’s perfect for the season. This frosted paper leaf and berry wreath is so gorgeous and so simple to craft. Our video tutorial breaks each step down for you, and you can follow along to make your own version.
Below you will also find the leaf SVG cut file, which I cut out with my cutting machine. This speeds up the crafting process, but you can also use our printable leaf pattern to cut your leaves by hand.
A Berry Special Wreath
A wreath is an easy way to switch up your seasonal home decor. And when it’s handmade, you can make it look exactly how you want to. You can make your wreath asymmetrical or full, use a metal hoop or a vine wreath as your base, choose different colors of paper, and so on. Really the creative options are endless!
For my paper leaf and berry wreath, I decided to go with an asymmetrical design and let some of the natural vine show through. But what really makes this fall leaf wreath special are the berries! You can see my technique for making berries in the video below (it’s really easy). And I share a lot of other crafting tips as well — including what to do if something doesn’t go quite right when you’re making and arranging your DIY wreath.

Dear Lia Griffith Team, could you please recommend a paper setting that may be used for your frosted paper for the Cricut Maker? Construction paper worked well for 120 gsm paper but bunched up your frosted paper. Many thanks, Denise
Hi Denise! We’ve had success cutting with the “light cardstock” setting, with a fresh/clean blade.
I love your paper flower wreaths and it gets hot enough between my storm door and the front door to melt hot glue. Any suggestions what to replace hot glue that won’t melt??
You could try tacky glue! https://feltpaperscissors.com/product/tacky-glue/
when you make this on circuit, do you get 12 big leaves per page. I’m new to circuit!
Hi! For this project you will just see 1 of each of the three different leaves, and you can multiply them to fit on whatever size paper you’re working with (either 8.5×11 or 12×12). You will find this video very helpful! https://liagriffith.com/craft-academy/how-to-use-files-cricut/
