Autumn Wreaths
Autumn is our favourite season for fabulous textures and rich colours. We have seen a rise in popularity of Autumnal wreaths, every year we sell more and more, showing that a wreath isn’t just for Christmas.
Firstly we go and pick our materials, this is often the most time-consuming element of making a wreath. They take so much material, the short clip slows the materials needed for one wreath.
Next we get a mossed ring and soak it so the moss holds moisture to extend the life of the wreath. We also get some scissors and a reel of wire ready to attach the plant materails.
We then construct the wreath by inserting a piece of foliage, leaf, berry etc into the moss, when we have added three of four different pieces, we then secure them into place by wrapping wire around the whole thing a couple of times. We continue this pattern all the way around the wreath.
This close up shot shows how many different varieties of plant material you need to include to create the finished look. The more the better is our general rule of thumb.
