How to Make a Semi-Natural Evergreen Wreath
Can you BELIEVE that before photo was hiding underneath that beautiful wreath? Love the look of fresh evergreen wreaths but hate the huge price tag? Here is a step-by-step tutorial on how to make your own. It's super simple AND your hedges can get trimmed as a bonus! You can transform a fake Christmas wreath into something wild, sloppy and organic with evergreen trimmings from your yard. Get ready to dust off those old astroturf wreaths and turn them into something amazing!
Here is what I used to make an easy evergreen wreath:
26 gauge floral wire
Pliers for cutting wire
Wire wreath form (found at an arts and crafts store such as Hobby Lobby)
Evergreen clippings ( I used Leland Cypress)
Length of fake gar
Then I layered the bunches of greens around the wreath on top of one another in a semi-circular pattern. I wrapped each bundle with a long continuous length of floral wire to secure them to the form.
