Step 1: Attach the Grapevine Cross to the Moss Bass
To begin, take the grapevine cross and position it on the moss base. Apply a generous amount of hot glue to the bottom of the cross, ensuring it’s securely attached to the base. Additionally, you can use floral pins to attach the cross to the base for added stability. Place the cross off-center to create a visually appealing design.
Step 2: Incorporate the Greenery
Next, it’s time to add the artificial greenery vine to the wreath. Choose some ivy stems and begin arranging them around the wreath. Make sure to evenly distribute the greenery. Use floral pins to secure the stems in place if needed. By incorporating greenery, you’ll add depth and texture to the wreath while bringing in a touch of nature to your decor.
Step 3: Attach the Purple Wildflower Berry Sprays to the Wreath
Now it’s time to add some color to the wreath with the artificial purple wildflower berry spray. Take the stems and begin arranging them around the wreath, focusing on the areas with the most open space. Use floral pins to attach the stems to the greenery, ensuring they don’t shift around. The purple flowers and berries add a vibrant touch of spring to the wreath.
Step 4: Create the Bow Using Burlap and Lavender Ribbon
To add a charming touch to the wreath, let’s create a bow. Take the 2.5 inch ribbon and make a bow, making sure both sides are even. Then, take the 1.5 inch ribbon and add it to the bow. Cut your tails, and attach the bow using a floral pin. The bow adds a rustic yet elegant touch to the wreath and ties the elements together beautifully.
Step 5: Incorporate the White Artificial Flowers & Eucalyptus Bush
Begin by positioning the white flowers and berries around the wreath, focusing on the areas that need more color and texture. Next, tuck the Eucalyptus berry pieces around the wreath, filling in any gaps and adding some greenery. This creates a cohesive look with the other greenery already in the wreath.
Step 6: Add the Purple Wisteria Sprays and White Flowers
Add a touch of whimsy with the wisteria sprays. Tuck the stems in with the floral pins. Next, add the white flowers around the wreath. This adds a delicate touch to the wreath.
Final Step: Add the Moss Curly Spiral Picks
To give the wreath a whimsical touch, add the moss curly spiral picks. This will bring a playful touch to the wreath, adding a unique element to the overall design.
