How to Make a Wooden Star Wreath with Citrus and Flowers

How to Make a Wooden Star Wreath with Citrus and FlowersStars have long been symbols of guidance, hope, and light.

This handcrafted star wreath, with oranges glowing like tiny suns and roses whispering of past summers, feels like a piece of folklore brought to life.

The twine knots and natural textures tell their own story of connection and resilience.

It’s more than decoration, it’s a symbol you can hang in your home to remind you of both nature’s cycles and your own creativity.

Materials Needed

  • 5 sturdy branches (12-14 inches each)
  • 8-10 dried orange slices (2-3 inches wide)
  • 4-5 dried roses or similar flowers
  • Sprigs of dried herbs (lavender, rosemary, or thyme)
  • Thick cotton rope or jute twine
  • Hot glue gun and glue sticks
  • Scissors or garden shears

Step-by-step Guide

Step 1: Lay out your five branches into a star shape, crossing them over each other at the points. Then adjust until the proportions look balanced.

Step 2: Use rope or twine to tie each intersecting point tightly, knotting securely. Wrap the twine several times for both stability and rustic style.

Step 3: Once the star is secured, trim any uneven ends of the branches for a clean look.

Step 4: Begin gluing dried orange slices around the star’s outer edges, spacing them evenly. You press and hold each slice until the glue sets.

Step 5: Fill in gaps with dried roses, herbs, or other florals. Arrange them in clusters to add natural variety and color.

Step 6: Add extra accents like small cinnamon sticks or star anise pods for a festive touch.

Step 7: Tie a loop of twine at the top point of the star for hanging.

Step 8: Hang it on your wall or front door and enjoy the rustic, symbolic beauty it brings to your home.

Tips:

For a sturdier frame, you can hot glue the sticks before tying them with twine. This ensures the wreath stays strong, even if displayed outdoors.
