Don’t you just love a good dupe??!! I reeaaaallly do!! One of my favorite things to do is scour my favorite higher-end retailers like Pottery Barn, Anthropologie, Arhaus…etc… find things I love and then try and recreate them on a teeny budget. So today I’m going to show you how I made this Anthropologie dupe moss wreath for around $15.
Welcome to this month’s Thrifty Style Team’s blog hop! I’ll have the links to my talented friend’s projects for this month at the bottom of the page.

How To Make A Moss Wreath
So when I fell in love with the $150 Anthropologie wreath my first thought was how can I make the look for less??
I actually found the same moss at Michael’s (they are my go-to craft supply spot…plus mine has same-day delivery…which is amazing!!)
supplies
- FOAM WREATH FORM
- MIXED MOSS (I used 1½ bags)
- GLUE STICKS(MY FAV!)
- GLUE GUN
making the moss wreath
All I used for this wreath was a foam wreath form and 1½ bags of a moss variety pack. The Anthropologie moss wreath form is larger than the size I made but I went with what was in stock at Michael’s.
OK, I’ve made about a bazillion wreaths in my time…but this one is sooooo easy to make!!!
Starting on one side I drizzled the hot glue onto the foam wreath form and added a piece of the green moss.
All I did was follow the moss pattern of the Anthro one as I was making my dupe version.
My Anthropologie inspiration wreath actually has the same moss mix on it!
When I say this was a quick project…it took less than 10 minutes from start to finish!
I needed about ½ of the second bag of moss I bought, amazingly I didn’t have any moss in my craft stash!!
Tip: Rip the moss into smaller pieces to get a more textured layered look on the wreath.
Once I was done with the front of the wreath, I added more moss around the edges so you wouldn’t see any of the green foam wreath form peaking through.
It was easier to do this from the backside of the wreath.
Seriously, it looks like the same wreath, doesn’t it???
…but my Anthro dupe wreath cost about 135 dollars less!!

So what do you think?? A pretty good dupe project, right!! I really, really love how it came out! The texture and the natural elements are really so cool.
This wreath is also seasonless, and you could hang it either inside or on your front door (as long as it was protected from the elements and birdies making nests!!)

I seriously LOVE this wreath, I have a slight obsession with moss! And my goodness the price is right, what a savings!
Thanks Laurie!! I can’t imagine ever spending that much on a wreath….I could make 10 wreaths for that much!!
This is such a great dupe. It looks exactly like the original one! Thanks for the idea!
I know, right?!!! Thanks so much!!
Wonderful job of dupping!
Thanks Linda!! It’s my favorite thing to do!!
Such an awesome wreath, Jennifer, and I love to dupe (is that the correct usage???). It’s beautiful and I love that it can be displayed year round.
Thanks so much Mary Beth!!
What a great dupe friend! I love things on a budget and this turned out wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Chas!! Me too…and if I can make it myself I will!! Today I saw a really cute Fall decoration for $15 and I took a picture and told myself “you can totally make it for 5!!”
Jennifer – you have blown us away. Your moss wreath is gorgeous! And dare we say even better that the inspiration piece. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks girls!! I really like this one!!
Love your wreath, Jennifer!
Thanks so much Paula!!!
What a creative and quick idea — can’t wait to try it!
Love it! I made a big one on a grapevine form a while back; I love decorating with it. Creating it on a foam form is a great idea; probably much easier that gluing to the grapevine. You’re going to enjoy it!
Thanks Lora!! It seriously took me less than 10 minutes and that’s with filming a YouTube video too!!
I looove this dupe Jennifer! So cool that you found the exact same moss as the inspiration wreath!
Thanks Cindy!! I have a super crush on it too!! I know….it’s seriously the same moss!!
