How To Put It All Together

Step 1 :: Wrap the green garland around the wire frame to cover as much of the wire as possible.

Step 2 :: Take one of the decorative garlands and wrap around the framing, tucking and adjusting to showcase the garland as needed.

Step 3 :: Wrap the burlap ribbon loosely around the wreath. Twisting slightly in the back to give the ribbon more movement and shape. Cut off any excess and tuck into the greenery.

Step 4 :: Tie down the 1st decorate garland into the greenery and burlap. Do this with fishing wire or floral wire.

Step 5:: Add in more decorative garland, wrap around and adjust to showcase the best parts of the garland. You can even cut up this garland to add into specific spots in the garland.
