Use a wreath form and simply start layering the eyeballs (big and small) around the wreath.
3. Halloween Spider Wreath
From Delicate Construction
You know those extra plastic spiders you have left over after every Halloween? Put them to use in this “Halloween wreath for slackers” idea.

5. Candy Corn Wreath
From lil’luna
Candy corn is the quintessential Halloween candy. What better way to display it than on a wreath! This candy corn wreath does require some gluing time, but the project is relatively simple and definitely results in a cute project! Black fabric strips are wrapped and glued to a foam wreath. Four rows of candy corn are added, with each row of candy corn facing the opposite direction. A bow and framed printable are added to complete the look.
6. DIY Candy Corn Wreath
From The Mommy Evolution
The only downside to this candy corn wreath is the fact that you can’t actually eat the candy corn! Once it is used to make this awesome Halloween wreath, it’s not safe for consumption. On the upside however, is the fact that it is a frugal fall/Halloween decoration, is easy to make, and only requires a foam wreath, hot glue gun, and candy corn.
7. DIY Halloween Wreath

21. Simple and Elegant Halloween Wreath
From Rosyscription
You won’t believe how easy it is to make this simple and elegant Halloween wreath! Would you believe it’s from a ceiling medallion that you can purchase at your local home improvement store?

The orange center is a hand-me-down orange sash wrapped around a small foam wreath (fabric or ribbon would work too). What a beautiful Halloween wreath!
22. Halloween Coffee Filter Wreath
From lil’luna
