Paint the top side of the tropical leaves with acrylic craft paint and a foam brush. I painted the pack of 12 leaves with three different shades of blueish-green paint, using each color for four of the leaves.
Paint at least 6 medium palm leaves with the same shades of paint. You may want to use two coats of paint to cover these leaves.
Arrange the 12 tropical leaves around a 24" grapevine wreath form. You will have just enough leaves to cover the entire wreath if you overlap them slightly. Once you have them positioned like you want, adhere each leaf to the wreath with a generous dab of hot glue on the bottom backside of the leaf.
To complete the wreath, layer in the medium palm leaves. You can use a pair of wire cutters to cut the leaves down to make them smaller. Then slot the palm leaves between the tropical leaves and adhere with hot glue. Keep adding the palm leaves until you have achieved the fullness you want for your wreath.
Hang your pretty new wreath wherever you need a touch of the tropics! It would pair well with these other DIY summer decor ideas.
