18″ Round Boxwood Wreath – My $10 Flea Market Find!
A round boxwood wreath is like the little black dress of home decor—timeless, versatile, and always in style. You can dress it up or down, use it for any season, and it never loses its charm!
💚 Why I’m Revisiting This Favorite Find (April 2025)
I originally shared this boxwood wreath find a while back, but it’s one of those classic pieces I keep coming back to—so I thought it deserved a little refresh! It’s still hanging in my home and still one of my favorite flea market treasures. If you love simple, timeless decor that works year-round, this one’s for you.
Flea Market Find!
While out shopping for patio furniture one day, we stumbled across a local building loaded with pallet merchandise—literally stacked floor to ceiling. The setup was simple: rooms labeled by price—$10, $25, and $50. Naturally, my husband wandered into the $50 room… and I made a beeline for the $10 section. 😂
I wandered around for a bit, and then something green caught my eye on one of the tables. It was a round plastic boxwood wreath—a little dusty, sporting a rather tacky patriotic bow, and even wrapped in a strand of battery-operated lights… that actually worked! When my husband asked if I’d found anything, I said, “Oh yeah.” He looked at the wreath and replied, “That? It looks pretty pitiful.” I just smiled and told him, “Just wait… it’ll be perfect for the back porch once I’m done with it.”
🛠️ The Makeover
I didn’t plan to do much—just took off the tacky bow, secured the lights, and added a new bow. The first one I used was a fall ribbon I had on hand, but it wasn’t quite right. So I swapped it for a prettier one, and that made all the difference. After that, the wreath went straight to the back porch door!
The boxwood pieces on the wreath are made of soft plastic, and at first glance, I thought it was attached to a grapevine base. But it turns out the base is actually strands of molded plastic designed to look like grapevine—which worked just as well and wasn’t messy at all. The wreath measures a full 18 inches wide, and I simply tied the bow on with a 1.5″ ribbon. Easy and done!
I made the wreath to hang on the glass door of our back porch. It didn’t photograph all that well in that spot—but you get the idea!

🛒 A Lucky Find
If you’ve ever worked with or purchased faux boxwood wreaths—round or square—you know they can be pricey, even at wholesale! That’s why I was so excited to snag this 18″ boxwood wreath for just $10. Total bargain!
I just wish they’d had more than one… or maybe they did, and I missed them. Maybe even a whole box full… maybe a whole pallet! I think I need to make another trip back to that store soon!

If you’re local to my area, this great find came from a building at the Tupelo Furniture Market—I believe it was in Building 3. You never know what you’ll come across!
