How to make your wreath Neaten up any unruly ends with your shears. As you do this, gently test pieces of foliage to make sure they won’t easily come off.Take an open cone and wrap the stubbing wire around the base of the cone and twist the ends together Fasten one end of the reel of wire to the ring and start to wrap the wire around the moss in a circular fashion. Keep the wire taut and continue working the wire round the ring , adding more moss bundles until completely covered Seasonal foliage (you can find holly leaves in all kinds of hues. Include the berries for a pop of colour. Evergreen sprigs also look great, You may even want to include small pine cones and other fun natural elements) Tie off the wire with a few extra wrapsaround the wreath then draw a longer piece of wire up to form a loop to hang the wreath and finish off with a bow Secure your wreath to a wreath hook on your door. It’s easy to find super-strong all purpose hooks that are self-adhesive.

Place the cone on the wreath and push the wire through the ring, twisting the ends to secure. Cones look good clustered in threes and can be sprayed with fake snow or covered with glitter Wire short sections of pine branches onto the pre-formed twig ring or moss ring with a loop for hanging Keep working with larger pieces until you run out, then start with smaller pieces and bright touches like sprigs with berries. Take one stem and bend it into a circle about 30-40cm (12-16in) in diameter, twisting in the overlaps until it holds the circular shapeIf your fresh wreath has natural foliage and you water it regularly you can expect it to last for 6-8 and longer. Natural wreaths are seasonal though and will need to be replaced.

You could leave your wreath at this point and call it finished! Indeed, foliage wreaths without any additional decorations and accessories can look fantastic. The exact process for adding accessories does depend on what they are, but I will explain an example of a pine cone. Cut a length of straight wire from your reel and thread it through the pine cone so it can hang from it. In this article, we’ll explain how to make a Christmas wreath from scratch, step by step. The process involves: The foliage typically looks better with the stems pointing inwards, and the leaves and greenery pointing outwards to create a fan shape. The exact materials are varied and depend on the style of wreath, the look you want to achieve, and seasonal differences. However, there are three core components present in any wreath – the base, foliage, and decorative items.Lyonshall Nurseries also make some beautiful holly wreaths from variegated holly. Again using sustainable holly from our orchards, we use cream or golden variegated holly. The designs can be of one variety or a mixture of green & variegated forms. These fresh wreaths are also decorated using similar materials as our traditional green holly designs mentioned above. To secure it, take the wire you have previously attached and tightly wind it around the moss in one-inch intervals. Make sure that at each revolution you pull it tight for maximum stability. Once you have done this the entire way around, keep the wire attached to your reel as we will need this for the next step.
