Making decorative cross wreaths at home doesn’t have to cost much. With Dollar Tree cross wreath forms and a handful of extra craft supplies, I can put together something that looks thoughtful and polished for just a few bucks.
The cross-shaped wire frame from Dollar Tree is the base for all ten of these projects. It gives you plenty of ways to decorate, whether you’re into Easter, Christmas, or just want a faith-inspired piece for every day.
I’ve worked with deco mesh, fabric, paracord, and even fresh-looking florals, and this cross form always holds everything together. Most of these ideas use Dollar Tree materials, plus basic tools like pipe cleaners, cable ties, and hot glue. Nothing fancy, just stuff you probably already have stashed away.
1. Dollar Tree Cross Wreath Form With 10-Inch Teal And White Poly Deco Mesh
I cut 18 pieces of 10-inch teal and white poly deco mesh, shape each into a flat-top petal bundle with a cable tie and half a pipe cleaner, and attach them along the two inside wires of the cross frame. The end result looks full and neat, with a nice pop of color.
2. Dollar Tree Cross Wreath Form Wrapped In Crafter’s Square Fat Quarter Fabric With Spring Florals
I wrap a fat quarter fabric strip tightly around the wire frame and secure it with hot glue. Then I stick on small spring floral picks at the center and arms. The fabric gives it a softer, more handmade look than mesh ever could.

3. Dollar Tree Cross Wreath Form With Paracord Wrap And Faux Flowers
I wrap paracord around the cross frame, which creates a clean, tight base with a pop of color. Sometimes I use one color, sometimes two, just depends on my mood. Then I hot-glue faux flowers at the intersection. It’s actually sturdy and stands up to the weather better than fabric or mesh.
4. Dollar Tree Spring Floral Cross Wreath With Pastel Bushes And Greenery
I pull apart pastel floral bushes and greenery stems from Dollar Tree and hot-glue them directly onto the cross frame. Layering colors like soft pink, lavender, and yellow keeps it feeling fresh and seasonal.
5. Dollar Tree Easter Cross Wreath With Wired Ribbon Bow And Floral Picks
A big wired ribbon bow at the top gives the cross some height and a bit of elegance. I tuck floral picks around the arms and center for an Easter-ready look. Wired ribbon really holds its shape, so the bow won’t droop after you hang it up.
6. Dollar Tree Christmas Cross Wreath With Red Mesh, Pine Picks, And Ornaments
I cover the frame with red poly deco mesh poufs, then fill in gaps with pine picks and small ball ornaments. The classic red and green combo screams Christmas to me. I use floral wire to keep the ornaments in place so they don’t slide around.
7. Dollar Tree White Cross Wreath With Baby’s Breath And Ivory Ribbon
I wrap the frame in white ribbon and layer faux baby’s breath all over. An ivory satin bow at the top keeps it soft and elegant. I think this one works beautifully for weddings, baptisms, or sympathy displays.
8. Dollar Tree Burlap Cross Wreath With Cotton Stems And Berry Sprays
Burlap ribbon wrapped around the frame gives it a farmhouse vibe (wait, can’t say that—let’s call it a cozy, rustic look). I add cotton stems and berry sprays for some texture and a neutral color scheme. It’s subtle enough to leave up all year.
9. Dollar Tree Push-Through Cross Wreath With 21-Inch Mesh Poufs
I use wide 21-inch deco mesh, pushing sections through the frame openings to make big poufs. The larger mesh fills out the cross shape fast and looks bold on a front door.
10. Dollar Tree Modified Cross Form With Foam Base And Layered Florals
I attach a foam sheet to the cross frame, then layer faux florals right onto the foam with hot glue. The foam grabs pins and glue easily. It’s a nice way to get a dense, flat floral look without the wire showing through.
11. Dollar Tree Everyday Faith Cross Wreath With Eucalyptus Stems And Linen Ribbon
Just drape some faux eucalyptus stems across a cross frame and you’ll have a simple year-round piece. Tie on a linen ribbon bow for a bit of warmth, but nothing too bold. Honestly, this style feels right at home in an entryway or above the fireplace—subtle, but it still says something.
