Shopping for the annual school supplies? Maybe pick up a few extra crayons or pencils to make back-to-school door decorations.

Currently, I’m obsessed with back-to-school door decorations that use school supplies. It’s a smart way to make a statement on the door, and then when it’s time for Halloween decorations, you can take the wreath apart and donate the supplies to a local Boys & Girls club or school.

It’s a smart way to celebrate the start of school with a fun craft, too. Here are a few that we’ve been pinning on Pinterest.

Note: Whenever making new art for an entry door, make sure you have a hanger or something else that doesn’t puncture the door. You could void the warranty. (Check out this interview with ideas on how to hang door decorations with a Therma-Tru Doors expert.)
