How to create a wild eco wreath
Bring the outdoors in, with a wild and wonderful wreath to add some natural festive flair to your Christmas décor this season. With no metal or plastic required, flora and fauna can be foraged from the garden, including earthy greens like conifers and pine, to dried summer flowers
– perfect for adding pops of colour.
You will need:
- Twine
- Scissors
- Twigs
- Cut/foraged greenery
Step-by-step guide:
- Get the look by gathering twigs together and moulding into a rough hoop shape. This doesn’t have to be perfect – each wreath should be unique. Secure as you go using the twine.
- Time to get creative: use the greenery to make little individual posies and secure with twine. Add flowers for colour and even baubles for an extra splash of glitz.
- Place each posey on the hoop, securing each one with twine. Layer each new posey on top of the last, to hide where you have tied.
- Stop when you’ve taken the greenery as far round as you would like. It’s nice to leave some of the hoop exposed for a rustic feel.
- Hang your wild eco wreath and prepare for compliments as you wow your festive guests.
