You can always throw this wreath up during those moments.

directions

  • Take your Eucalyptus garland and cut it down into sections with your wire cutters. Try to find a spot that makes sense along the stems of your garland. Continue this throughout the entire garland.
  • Grab your 14” grapevine wreath base and start placing larger Eucalyptus stems along the inside of your base. Make sure each stem follows the same direction as you continue around the base. Start by placing a stem at the points of a clock. Dip the ends into the hot glue and secure them into your grapevine wreath.
  • It can be helpful to organize your Eucalyptus stems depending on how many branches they have, to help with you are continuing to place them. Add a branch with two stems in between each section, remembering to follow the same direction. Bend any branches if necessary.
  • Fill in any empty holes with the single Eucalyptus branches securing them with hot glue. Keep staying on the inside of the wreath base as you add more stems. When you’ve reached the desired look you are going for, add any bows or embellishments you’d like or leave as is!

  • Stem back and look at your your centerpiece. Are thier bald or blank spaces? Fluff you black garland to fill and use the wires in your products from Keleas.com to really get the pieces where you want them.
  • Grab one of your Glitter Curly Velvet Ball Picks and trim the stem down to a couple of inches. Fluff out your pick, and then place it to the left of your bow, tucking it behind the bow to have it peek out from behind it.
