Let's get building!
-
Start by wrapping the floral tape around your hoop. Stretch and pull the tape firmly and it should get a tad bit tacky, enough to stick to it's self. Cover about 2/3 around the hoop. This will help keep the greenery in place.
-
Take the green wire and wrap it around the hoop at the starting point of your tape. Twist to secure.
-
Gather a small hand full of cedar, silver fir and carolina sapphire in a bundle - cut as needed. You can add your other ingredients if you like. You kits should make approx 6 -8 small bunches.
-
Line up all the stems and place it where your wire is tied (cut end towards the tape). Take your wire and wrap it firmly around the stems several times. If the greenery moves its too loose.
-
Wrap your wire about 1-3 inches down the frame
-
Gather your second bunch of greenery and lay it down wire your wire is and wrap it firmly with the wire. All the greenery should be facing the same direction.
-
Continue with 1 more (6 total) or 2 more (8 total) bunches.
-
(Depending on the orientation of your wreath and how you would like it too look.)Once you have one half complete, tie off your wire and cut it.
-
Now tie the wire to the opposite end of your wreath at the end of the tape.
-
Gather a new bunch of greenery and repeat steps 3-7.
-
Now add in the magnolia leaves, eucalyptus, bunny tails, fern and any additional items your kit may have come with, if you haven't already. Securing them with the wire. How you decorate is up to you! Tie off the wire, cut it and sick the end in between the greenery.
-
Hold up your wreath and let gravity do its thing. Secure any pieces that maybe out of place with an other piece of wire.
-
Use the longest piece of ribbon and wrap it around the middle of your wreath where the wire and stems are exposed. One or two times and tie the ribbon in a bow.
-
Take the second ribbon and loop it round the top of the wreath frame. Knot the ends and your wreath is ready to hang!
