Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare Your Wreath Base

• If using a grapevine wreath, trim any loose twigs to create a smooth shape.
• If using an evergreen wreath, fluff each branch to create a round shape.

2. Arrange Greenery as Your Base

• Start by layering greenery evenly around the wreath base, securing it with hot glue.

3. Add Focal Flowers

• Place your largest flowers (roses, peonies, or hydrangeas) first.
• Use hot glue to attach them securely.

4. Fill in with Accent Flowers & Details

• Add smaller flowers like baby’s breath or ranunculus around the focal blooms.
• Tuck in additional greenery or trailing ivy for movement and dimension.

🎉 And that’s it! Your wedding wreath is ready to hang, display, or gift to a bride-to-be!
