Before I even unwrapped a wreath form or picked out ribbon, I gave myself a challenge: Could I plan an entire year of front-door-worthy DIY wreaths for under $35—just using Dollar Tree supplies? I know, it sounds wild. But with a little early planning, some clever Dollar Tree hunting, and a dash of creativity, I mapped out a full calendar of festive, minimalist, and totally viral-worthy wreaths for every season—Spring, Fall, Winter, and even those 4th of July firework vibes. This is the part that most people skip, but trust me—it’s the secret to staying under budget, out of stress mode, and ahead of every holiday curve. Ready to see how I set it all up from the very beginning?
