Hanging Holiday Wreaths

SUPPLIES & TOOLS:

• White leaf boxed wreaths, 2
• Holly green snowy cypress stem, 1
• Pinecone dripping stem, 1
• Spool of Navy Velvet Ribbon, 1
• Glue gun/glue gun sticks
• Wire cutter or floral snips
• Ruler
• Scissors

DIRECTIONS:

1. Place the first white wreath on your worktable with the rope hanger facing upward.
2. Use the floral snips to cut small pieces of greenery and pinecones. Trim the stems to fit into the wreath. Before gluing place the greenery and pinecones around the wreath in your desired design.
3. Once you have your design that you would like for the wreath. Start at one point, carefully add a dot of hot glue to each piece of greenery and pinecone and replace from where you picked it up from. After you had glued all of the floral pieces, pick up the wreath and shake it a little to see if you need to reinforce any of the pieces so nothing falls off.
4. Cut the rope hanger off both of the wreaths.
5. To hang the wreaths with ribbon, cut a length that will let the wreath hit the back of the chair where you would like it. Hot glue the ends of the ribbon to the back of the wreath.

JOANN HACKS:

• Use fabric scissors to cut the ribbon to ensure a smooth ribbon end.
