Marcia: I save some of my evergreen pruning until wreath-making time. Don't overprune your ... a 12- or 18-inch metal (under $3), straw or twig wreath frame, wire cutters and pruners.

Amp up your home's curb appeal with a pretty welcome wreath. This easy craft uses a store-bought wreath and a few DIY tools to add color and charm to a boring front door.

Topped off with ribbon, flowers, and burlap, this DIY wreath embraces the natural elements of fall. Make your own fall leaves with felt and turn a simple twig wreath into a work of art.
