    You can wrap mesh ribbon or burlap ribbon in through the holes in the form and then around it, kind of like crochet. You can make a series of knots or just poofs through there. Then once you have a nice fluffy back ground, you can add decorations with floral wire. You can also wire plants to the form with floral wire, just lay bunches of whatever material you have, silk flowers, grasses, feathers, whatever you like the look of, wire them on and then lay another bundle on top of the stems of the first. Keep going til the wreath is covered. Then you can wrap some ribbon around and add a bow or add some other decor.
