Tree of Life Wreath 🌳 My New Studio Knit Decor


Hello, Reader! I recently moved into my new studio in Moss Beach, and I’m still settling in. I’ve been having fun reorganizing, decorating, and slowly making the space feel like home, and that inspired my newest handmade project.

While walking through my nearby forest, surrounded by coastal cypress trees draped with moss and overlooking the cliffs above the crashing waves, I decided to create a Tree of Life wreath that included knitting. Something handmade and welcoming for the door of my new studio.

Why I chose the Tree of Life

The Tree of Life symbol has Celtic roots and is often associated with connection, renewal, and home. With St. Patrick’s Day coming up and my new studio taking shape, it felt especially meaningful. Some of you may remember when I knitted a Tree of Life wedding ring pillow for our ceremony, so bringing this symbol into my studio feels extra special.

One of my favorite things about Tree of Life wreaths is how easy they are to customize. I’ve collected ideas onto my Pinterest board where you can see different ideas like little swings hanging from branches, fairy figurines tucked inside, even miniature pets added for personality. I love the magical vibe of white lights and found a pack that will automatically turn on at night. It’s such a fun way to make something truly personal for your own front door or entryway.

Would you enjoy a video tutorial?

If enough of you are interested, I’ll create a full video tutorial including step-by-step knitting and crafting instructions.

Thank you for being part of this new chapter with me. I can’t wait to share more as I continue setting up my studio.

Happy knitting,

Kristen McDonnell
