How to Make a Floral Wreath
Introduction: Floral Wreath
Floral wreaths appear more modern and beautiful compared to standard wreaths. So, instead of spending tons of money on premade options, I’ll teach you how to make one yourself in the comfort of your home. This particular project takes roughly one hour and requires intermediate skills.
Materials
* embroidery/metal hoop
* floral wire
* one main flower
* Two pieces of greenery
* Three filler flower sprigs
* A ribbon
* Scissors
* Wire cutters
* Hot glue gun
Step 1: Collect Your Materials
Arrange everything you require on a spacious worktable. This way, you can easily reach them as you work, saving you lots of time.
Step 2: Cut the Florals and Arrange Them
Remove any extra foliage or leaves and cut the stems to your desired height. Also, if your flowers have wilted leaves, consider eliminating them. After this, figure out how you want your wreath to be arranged.
Step 3: Bring In the Greenery
Bring the metal hoop around and start wiring the greenery sprogs along one half, one at a time. Wrap the wire along the stems and lift the leaves to avoid squishing them. 984
Most of the time, hoop wreaths are made up of florals on one half while the other half is left exposed. However, if you want to cover the whole hoop, go for it. If you think the wire isn't providing enough support, a hot glue gun can help you make the necessary adjustments.
Step 4: Position Filler Flowers
Using the same method in step 3, wire the smaller blooms’ stems into the wreath’s sparser sports. If you need extra help getting the flowers to stick, a hot glue gun will come in handy.
Step 5: Throw in the Final Flower
It is now time to bring your main bloom into your frame. In my case, I positioned mine to the side for some personality, but different layouts work for different people. Just like the other greenery and flowers, the min flower is attached using a wire. When this is done, leave your wreath to set for about 30 minutes to give the flowers time to adjust.
Step 6: Here Comes the Ribbon!
The next step is attaching a ribbon at the top of your wreath for hanging purposes.
Step 7: Hang Your Wreath
Your wreath is complete and ready for you to enjoy. You can now hang it on a door, wall, or above the mantel. 984
