Tulle St. Patrick’s Day Wreath
Looking for a fun and festive way to decorate for St. Patrick’s Day this year? Check out how to make this easy Tulle St. Patrick’s Day Wreath!
Hi friends! Today I’m sharing a perfectly FUN and fluffy Tulle St. Patrick’s Day Wreath! For Valentine’s day, my friend Erin made this gorgeous Valentine’s Day Wreath – out of tulle!
I was so inspired by her gorgeous creation, I thought I would give it a try for St. Patrick’s Day! So I gathered up the supplies and got to work!
What you’ll need:
- 12 inch straw or styrofoam wreath
- Spool of green ribbon
- Scissors
- Hunter green and lime green tulle
- Cardstock
- Shamrocks
- Twine
- Glue
And the steps:
- Wrap a 12 inch straw or styrofoam wreath form using a spool of green ribbon.
- Cut hunter green and lime green tulle into 17 inch strips.
- Tie the strips of tulle around the wreath, alternating 3 hunter green strips and 1 lime green strip, all the way around the wreath until covered.
- Cut the letters “LUCK” out of cardstock and glue them to shamrocks, which you could also cut out (I happened to buy a package of pre-cut glitter shamrocks from the dollar store).
- Glue the shamrocks to twine and tie the letters to the wreath.
- Glue green ribbon to the wreath and hang on the door.
And I just LOVE how the adorable Tulle St. Patrick’s Day Wreath turned out!
What do you think? I love the way that it turned out! It’s fluffy (as my husband calls it) and FUN! And definitely easier and less time consuming than yarn wreaths, which I also love, just don’t always have time for! So what crafts are you tackling this St. Patrick’s Day?
Oh, this is so cute! I love how fluffy it turned out, and I’m definitely digging the glittered shamrocks. I’m pinning this one for sure!
This is adorable! I hope you’ll link it up to my new linky party! I’m a new follower! Hope you’ll stop by and follow along if you’d like!

Your wreath is so pretty, very creative!
Love this great idea for a wreath for any season and holiday! I am already thinking Easter with pink and white or yellow…..
Thanks for sharing!
Hugs,

I want to make one!! 🙂
You are one Tulle wreath makin’ Machine! LOVE it!
Can you approximate how much tulle was needed to go around the 12″ straw frame? I realize you cut strips around 17″ long, but that does not tell yardage requirement. Thank you.
Hi Julie! It’s been a while but I think I used a whole spool of the dark green and about half of the light green. Hope that helps!
I going to make the St Patrick’s day tulle wreath but how wide do you cut the strips? it says 17in long I love it and you can change the colors for other holidays I already went and bought everything please reply to my email thanks and Happy St. Patricks day everyone
Hi Marion – I purchased spools of tulle that are about 6 inches wide; so 6in by 17in strips. Hope that helps!
thank you, I bought it by the yard (on sale) wont be a problem cutting them I also found some white tulle with little shamrocks on them.
May I ask how many yards of each green did you purchase fro the 12 inch wreath? I adore it, especially for next Valentine’s Day! Thank you
Hi Kathryn! I believe I ended up using about a standard roll and a half of the kelly green tulle and less than a standard roll of the lime green. Hope that helps!
I stumbled on this while looking for something to make with my grandchildren. I think it is so festive and pretty.
I am not very creative and actually all thumbs but I try. I purchased the tulle and cut the strips but 17″ seems too long. Do I need to wrap the tulle a couple of times around the wreath or trim it all when finished? I think my twins will like this for Easter as well as St. Pat’s Day, Thanks for sharing.
Hi Saranne! I definitely did 17″ as you can see in the picture, and only wrapped around once, tying a knot around the wreath form. I was going for a VERY fluffy look; however if you feel that it’s too long, feel free to knock a couple of inches off that! Or trimming afterwards would be just fine! I’m sure it will still turn out adorable!
Very cool wreath! Gonna pin this one for sure. Thanks for sharing with us. Been wanting to try the tulle wreaths. You just inspired me to take the first step into the tulle world, so to speak.
Oh that’s great to hear, Paula! You’ll have to tell me how you fare!:)
Love this! I saw it too late for St. Patrick’s Day, so I’m making one for Easter. I picked up bright pink, bright yellow, bright purple, and bright green tulle today. I’m going for a dyed Easter egg look. My mom gave the kids a cute bunny decoration that I’m going to hang in the middle. I can’t wait to see how it turns out! Thank you for sharing your idea!
How fun, Jennifer! You’ll have to be sure to share a picture with me when you’re done!
Love, love, love this!!! How much tule did you use? It just says 17 inch strips. Thsnks 🙂
Hi Rebecca – I did use 17 inch strips, I went through about 1 and a half standard spools of the dark green and half a spool of the light green. Hope that helps!
