Use this basic technique to create stunning wreaths for any season.
Basic Wreath Instructions:
Cut a 2 1/4" square from the middle of each polystyrene foam square.
Wrap each square with floral tape or moss and floral wire to hide the foam.
Create the wreath hanger by wrapping a length of wire around the top middle of each wreath. Make a loop in the back, twist the wire to secure it in place, and trim the ends.
Cut each berry or small cluster from the center stem, leaving approx. 1/2" of wire on each bead.
Insert the berries into the foam, spacing them tightly together. Be sure to cover the inside and outside edges of the wreath. Note: For added reinforcement, dip the wires into craft glue before inserting them into the foam.
Display Ideas:
Display your wreaths individually or in a row. Hang the row of wreaths directly on the wall or tie it onto a branch with strong ribbon.
