How to Make Your Christmas Wreath

Use florist wire and the ribbon of your choice to create a loop for hanging your wreath once it’s finished. This will also serve as a practical guide to mark the top of your wreath, where you can start and finish the decorations.

Cut the greenery and foliage into smaller pieces and start placing them into the straw. This will help you create a sturdy base for your wreath.

Adding depth to your Christmas door wreath

Start adding depth to your Christmas door wreath by placing the pine cones and hypericum berries in and amongst the foliage. Add in decorative accessories including any baubles and ribbon.

You could also choose a few stems from your favourite Christmas bouquet and simply trim the flowers to add even more sparkle to your door wreath.
