My mom loves the holidays. From Valentine’s Day to the Fourth of July, she decorates for them all. She has passed her love of holiday decorations on to me and I can’t wait to pull out the next holiday’s decorations as soon as possible.
Halloween has never been my favorite holiday to decorate for, I hate being pigeon holed into the orange and black. This year, my seven-year-old came up with the idea for a purple and silver Halloween and I loved the idea and ran with it! I am excited to show you everything I came up with, but first my favorite piece, this wreath.
This wreath is easy to make and you can buy everything you need to make this Dollar Store Halloween Wreath at the dollar store for a whopping $8!
Dollar Store Halloween Wreath
You will need:
- a wire wreath form
- three rolls of purple mesh (from the dollar store)
- three rolls of silver mesh (from the dollar store)
- purple mesh tubing (from the dollar store)
- large purple glitter spider
Tie the end of one of the purple rolls to the outside ring on the wreath.
Pinch about three inches of mesh into a loop and push it through the top opening in the wreath. Pinch another three inch loop and push it through the second opening. Pinch a third three inch loop and push it through the third opening. Repeat the whole process, starting with the top opening again. Repeat one more time and then switch colors to silver.
Do not cut the mesh, just start the silver. Repeat the whole process again three times with the silver and then go back to the purple. Just bring the purple around the back of the wreath to start again.

Purple is my favorite color and is also a Halloween color. So I think your wreath looks perfect!

That looks really neat! Purple has always been one of my favorite colors and along with orange, black, and teal; it's a color for Halloween.
Purple us a fun color for Halloween. It looks like an easy craft and would be nice against my black door.
That looks so pretty! I love all the fancy seasonal wreathes, but I have never made one before.
I am loving this wreath. I am also impressed that you can get all of the materials at the dollar store.
Very cute and flattering color for a wreath! Perf for Halloween time 🙂
What a cool looking wreath! I love that it's purple since we're Ravens fans, and the spider is a really cool touch.
OMG at a cute wreath!!!! It's crazy the stuff you can find to make killer crafts at the dollar store! It's my number one place to check before any place else when it comes to my crafting.
This is so cute! I've become obsessed with the dollar store and all of the fun homeschool crafts we can do from there. I always forget about decor stuff like this! I'll be trying this one out for sure!
That is so cute! I have never gone to the dollar tree for DIY stuff so that would be a big money saver. Very cool and the colors totally work for Halloween.
My grandmother loved decorating for Halloween! It was the one holiday besides Christmas that we would decorate our house for which I loved. I love that you used purple and silver instead of the usual orange and black!
My mom would also always go all out with the decorations for holidays growing up. I loved it and definitely want to continue that tradition once I move into a new apartment.
That is so pretty. I love purple for Halloween! It brightens up the holiday a bit!That looks easy to make too!
This wreath is gorgeous and I love the colors. My husband's favorite color is dark purple so I don't think he will give me a hard time about putting this one on our door.
You know I love a good dollar craft! Purple is a fun color for Halloween and a nice change from orange. I need to break out the fall and Halloween decor!
Love this wreath, this would be an all year wreath for us.
