How To Make a Festive Lemon Wreath
I love a non traditional holiday wreath for my home. One of the reason is I live by the coast, so I can use it all year round. That's why I created the lemon wreath. I was inspired this year to make a lemon wreath with lots of eucalypti. To make it more festive for the holidays I added a Black and White bow. You can add whatever color bow you like.
Here is how you can make this Festive lemon wreath that can be used all year round.
Step 1: Gather all the supplies
Grapevine wreath
Lemons
Wire
Eucalyptus
Box Wood Leaves
Wire Bow
Glue Gun
Glue Stick
Step 2: Cut eucalyptus leaves and stick inside the grapevine wreath. Add a little glue with a glue gun. Add the leaves around the entire grapevine until its full. Add box wood leaves as an additional leaf for variety that have the white flowers in them every 4 inches.
Step 3: Adding the lemons in the wreath
I used lemons with a stem, which made the process of inserting the lemon into the wreath much easier. You have to cut the stems to the appropriate length then stick them into the wreath. I added about 6 lemons total. It is totally up to you how many lemons you would like the wreath to have.
Step 4: Adding the bow:
You can add or make any bow you like. I suggest using one that has wire through-out. The wire makes it stand firm otherwise others without the wire droop. I made my bow with a wired black and white ribbon. You can google how to make a bow or here is a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7iLdcdTPWU
Once the bow is done you can attach it with wire anywhere on the wreath.
