How To Make A Cottage Floral Wreath

The important thing I want you to learn from this wreath tutorial is that clustering your wreath supplies help create focal points for your wreath.
It also creates a more cohesive and visually appealing arrangement. By clustering supplies, such as flowers, and foliage, you can create a focal point and add depth and dimension to the design.
Clustering supplies also helps to create balance and symmetry within the wreath. For example, grouping larger flowers together as we did in this tutorial create a sense of balance and harmony. They can also help fill in any gaps and create a fuller, more abundant look.
Overall, clustering wreath supplies in a design is a useful technique for creating a well-balanced and visually appealing arrangement. It allows you to create depth, balance, and symmetry while filling in any gaps and creating a full, lush look.

Directions
- Make your bow first. Make your tail at 16 inches and then twist and make a three loop bow with your loops at 3 inches each. Secure with a cable tie. Keep your tail long and we will cut it later.
- Cut your left tail about half the length of the one on the right. Then dovetail the ends.
- Place your greenery stems by dipping in your glue pot first and slide them right into the bottom of your wreath base creating a cluster waterfalling down.
- Repeat the same steps but this time push them in to stick out towards the top of your wreath.
- Cut down your green fern filler pieces. Placing them on the outside and inside of your wreath. Staggering them as you place them.
- Grab your floral stems. Cut them down to be a bit shorter. You will make a cluster with these florals as well like you did with your fern filler pieces. Place one at a time. Two side by side.
- Place two more pink florals a bit above the two you place in the side center.
- Place your bow under your center pink florals and then place two more floral stems under your bow.
- Add filler flowers around your bow and fill in any empty space creating transitions.
How do you make a wreath look fuller?
There are several ways to make a wreath look fuller and more lush. Here are some tips:
- Start with a full base: Begin with a wreath base that is full and dense. You can choose a pre-made wreath or create your own using a sturdy base like grapevine or wire and adding greenery or other materials.
- Layer materials: Add layers of greenery or other materials, such as flowers or berries, to the wreath. Start with the largest and most voluminous pieces and work your way down to smaller and more delicate elements. This will create a sense of depth and make the wreath look fuller.
- Use filler: Fill in any gaps or empty spaces with filler materials such as baby’s breath, eucalyptus, or ferns. These materials are lightweight and can be easily woven into the wreath base to give it a fuller look.
- Fluff it up: After you have added all the materials to the wreath, take some time to fluff and adjust the greenery and flowers. This will help to create a more natural and fuller appearance.
By following these simple tips, you can easily make a wreath look fuller and more beautiful.

Directions
- Start by finding cutting the styrofoam so it is nestled inside of the Green Frankenstein Bucket so that it sits nicely inside and glue down. I like to use both Gorilla Glue and Hot Glue to really secure it for both now and long term.
- Cut Black Garland Base into small sections and set your base, spreading for maximum coverage.
- Prep your picks by grabbing your Purple Green Orange Felt Ball Twig Sprays. Sseparating them into smaller picks. You can also twist the black chenille around your finger to create a fun effect.Â
- Trim your Glitter Eye Ball Picks and add to the stryofoam. Be sure to space them for the best visual display.
- Cut and prep the White Black Chenille Curly Stems add some dimension to them by curling with your fingers to really give them life.
- 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.Â
