Ireland’s Best DIY Christmas Wreath Kit Is Officially Live: Craft Your Own Luxury Door Wreath With The Crate
Nothing signals the start of the festive season in Ireland quite like hanging a fresh, pine-scented wreath on your front door. Better still? Putting on your favourite Christmas playlist, pouring a glass of mulled wine, and crafting that show-stopping door wreath with your own two hands.
At The Crate, our DIY Christmas Wreath Kit has become an annual festive ritual for households, groups of friends, and corporate teams right across the island. Designed by our florists in Bray, Co. Wicklow, we take the guesswork (and the foraging in the rain!) out of festive floristry—delivering every single fragrant stem, ribbon, and tool you need straight to your doorstep in our signature bespoke Wreath Gift Box.
Because we work with fresh, sustainably harvested Irish foliage in limited seasonal batches, our wreath kits sell out completely every year. Pre-orders are officially open on the website right now—here is everything waiting for you inside the box.

Why Ours Is Rated Ireland’s Best DIY Wreath Kit
1. 100% Fresh, Sustainably Grown Irish Foliage
We champion local Irish growers. Both our Nobilis fir bases and fragrant eucalyptus bundles are grown right here in Ireland, meaning your greenery spends less time in transit, smells exponentially fresher, and lasts right through December and into the New Year in the cool Irish outdoor air.
2. Zero Experience Needed (Truly!)
Never wired a stem in your life? No problem. Our step-by-step printed guide and scan-to-watch florist video tutorial break the process down into simple, mindful steps:
-
Set the Scene: Pop on the kettle (or warm the mulled wine), light a candle, and unbox your greenery.
-
Bunch & Layer: Divide your Irish eucalyptus, evergreens, and natural floral decorations into small posies and wire them onto your Nobilis base in one flowing direction.
-
Dress & Glow: Secure your natural botanical elements, weave in your fairy lights, tie on your statement red gingham bow, and pop it onto your included wreath hanger.
3. The Ultimate Pre-Christmas Gift (Or Girls’ Night In)
Because every kit includes the wreath hanger, fairy lights, and a bespoke gift box, it is one of the most memorable early-December gifts you can send to a parent, host, new homeowner, or best friend. Better yet, order two or three kits, invite your favourite people around the kitchen island, and host your own festive wreath-making night at home.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How long will my fresh DIY Christmas wreath last? Because we use fresh, Irish-grown Nobilis fir—renowned for its natural moisture retention and needle hold—alongside hardy evergreens and eucalyptus, your wreath will stay fresh for 4 to 6+ weeks when hung outdoors in Ireland's cool winter weather. If displaying indoors, keep it away from direct radiators and mist it lightly with water every few days.
Where in Ireland do you deliver the DIY Wreath Kits? We deliver nationwide across all 32 counties in Ireland and Northern Ireland! We offer same-day delivery in Dublin (Monday–Sunday when ordered before 1:00 PM) and next-day courier delivery nationwide (Tuesday–Friday when ordered before 1:00 PM).
Why should I pre-order my Christmas Wreath Kit now? We hand-pack our wreath kits in small batches using freshly harvested Irish Nobilis fir and eucalyptus. Once our seasonal harvest allocation is spoken for, we cannot restock—and our kits sell out ahead of schedule every single year. Pre-ordering now locks in your kit and lets you choose your preferred delivery date.
Does the kit include everything I need to hang it on my door? Yes! Unlike standard kits that only give you wire and foliage, The Crate’s kit includes a door wreath hanger, fairy lights, a large red gingham bow, ribbons, florist wire, and all your Irish foliage and natural decorations—you only need a pair of kitchen scissors or secateurs.
