Valentine’s Day may still be a little ways away, but it will be here before you know it, so if you like to swath the house in hearts, shades of pink, and more, it’s time to start thinking about your February 14 decorations. We suggest starting with the Valentine’s Day wreath because, if you’re making it yourself, it often takes the longest to put together. Otherwise, we’ve included plenty of ready-to-hang options that ship pre-assembled. If you consider yourself a crafty person, though, nothing says “I love you” like a handmade wreath dotted with florals, motifs, and more.

Ahead, we’ve picked out 21 wreaths—13 of which you can make and the rest you can buy—that will dress up your space in all the right ways, so take your pick. Speaking of making a choice, there are plenty of options below that vary in terms of price, style, and assembly difficulty, meaning there’s something for everyone. Think a big and lush heart-shaped wreath complete with dried hydrangeas, a perfectly circular wreath donning loops of sunset-hued faux tulips, and a rustic wreath featuring one single flower and a whole lot of grapevine.

No matter your style, you’ll find something here that suits you and your space. Just don’t wait too long to get started because crafting decor for a holiday with a deadline is not a last-minute task. Don’t know where to start? We’ve got you covered. Keep scrolling and prepare to get inspired by all of the fabulous finds.

Make a Heart

If there is one pro crafter who teaches us how to make gorgeous goodies that are way easier to create than they look, it's Brittany Watson Jepsen of The House That Lars Built. A prime example of her artistic abilities: this heart-shaped wreath covered in faux baby's breath. Want to make this yourself? Peep the tutorial.

Tie a Bow

It may be hard to tell, but this wreath is also shaped like a heart, as are a few on our list. This one, however, is a bit less Valentine's Day-specific because it's not as pink as the previous one. It's equal parts bohemian and preppy, courtesy of the wispy, dangling plants and the perfectly tied bow.

Trade Flowers for Pom Poms

What's more Valentine's Day-friendly than crimson red? If you're in the market for a less cute and more romantic wreath, opt for something like this, which shouldn't take more than a few minutes to create because it's made of pom poms. See how the masterminds behind Hearth & Vine create this elegant piece.

Eat It

Similar to the first wreath on our list, this one is a heart-shaped option covered with pink berries. If you're worried about attracting critters to the front door, opt for the artificial ones. However, there's something that's undeniably more rustic about this one. So if you live in the suburbs or want to go with a more bucolic vibe, you may want to consider a wreath like this.

If you take the time to read through Finding Lovely's detailed tutorial, you'll quickly realize that this takes more than a few minutes to put together, but the final result proves it's worth it. Full disclosure: You'll need a glue gun to get this kind of precision with the florals.

Go Girly

Would you even believe us if we told you that you only need four things to create this super sweet heart-shaped wreath? Well, believe it! All you need is a heart-shaped grapevine, flower stems, wire, and wire cutters. Get the full tutorial on A Pumpkin & A Princess. Technically, you'll need one more item, a ribbon, to hang it from your door.

Embrace Imperfection

Though this wreath definitely skews a bit rugged, it would work on any door—not just one in the countryside. Not to mention, there's something charming about the micro blossoms and grapevines that don't neatly tuck into place. It looks homemade in all the right ways, so if you want to show your partner how much you care, this is a good one to try. Take a peek at the tutorial before getting started on your own.

Stick to One Material

Faux pampas grass offers all the benefits of the real thing (read: super soft) without the sometimes inevitable foul smell. Plus, there's no rule that says all Valentine's Day decorations must feature red roses, right? If you want to do things differently while still staying relatively on theme, this blush-toned wreath is for you.

It doesn't get much more Valentine's Day-specific than faux pink tulips. This one from Grandin Road boasts that beloved perfectly imperfect look with a few stray stems and slightly out of order leaves.

Incorporate Motifs

Cupid's bow makes its annual appearance in February, so feel free to incorporate the arrow into your DIY Valentine's Day wreath. We're loving the dramatic feel of this one with it's extra-long body and glimmering brass finish. All you need to do is fasten it to your wreath to let the neighbors know the god of love has arrived.

Adopt Some Symbolism

Technically, the pink and white tulips on this wreath are artificial, but you wouldn't really know it until you touch one. The important thing is that they look real. Not to mention, you can use it for years without having to worry about the florals dying.

Take Your Time

Here's another one from The House That Lars built, and like the previous one, this one takes some time to put together, so if you're thinking about taking it on, don't wait until the last minute. Luckily you won't need a whole lot to craft it. According to the DIY expert, all you need is paper heart gradient printables, pink crepe paper, wire wreath, hot glue, and a hot glue gun. See how she does it here.

Try a Sunset

Outfitted in sunset tones, this faux tulip wreath is a great choice for Valentine's Day. That said, it's not so on-theme that you can't use it past the love-filled holiday. In fact, with these sunny shades, you can bring it back out for springtime. After all, nothing signals warm weather ahead like a spring-friendly wreath.

Add Some Fluff

This sweet wreath is covered from top to bottom in faux peonies, one of the most luxurious flowers on offer. Sadly, they're only in season for a few weeks out of the year (often around May), so they won't be available for wreath-making purposes in February. That said, there are plenty of artificial alternatives that will get the job done. See how Lydia of Lydi Out Loud does it for her home.

Let the Kids Help

Contrary to popular belief, wreaths don't have to be made of plants. In fact, some of the cutest ones are made of pom poms, like this one from Amazon. Pom poms are a forgiving material, so if they get a little messed up in the process, no one will know, making this a perfect craft for the little ones.

This is one of our favorites on the list because it's both classic and unique. The colors, materials, and heart shape all read traditional Valentine's Day wreath, but the fact that it's tilted on its side makes it just a little bit cooler. Get the tutorial here.

Try a Classic

Preserved pink hydrangeas make this heart-shaped wreath a winner. It may be dotted with dried florals, but this find is as lush as it gets. Of course, the giant bow doesn't hurt one bit. The best part? You don't have to worry about making this yourself because it ships ready to hang.

There's no need to make a big statement. Instead, go for something a bit smaller in scale and a bit simpler in aesthetic. This is such an elegant, whimsical wreath that it works all-year round. Well, maybe not in the dead of winter, but the rest of the seasons!

If you don't want to say goodbye to your Christmas wreath, tack on a few Valentine's Day motifs (read: hearts) and leave it up through the end of February. There's no rule against dressing up your Christmas decorations for an incoming holiday, is there?
