thats one sorry, ugly looking thing... you do not need all that wire, you can use string, & for the wreath base itself, you can just use flexible brances like oak, or just soak thin branches in water, twist them into the wreath shape, and let dry.
R.I.P. .......YES on ALL counts!! First...if I made a sparse wreath like that with the wire frame showing, I'd be ashamed. Second...your idea of using longish flexible thin branches...(entwined among themselves as you would a grapevine wreath, or simply place all of the branches 'side by side', holding them all in place with twine, colored string, ribbon, wire, etc.)...would be beautiful as a wreath base. So pretty, and no wire frame showing! ! Or a wire coat hanger could be bent into a "circle" and used to attach the twigs to. For those who've never made wreaths before, it's much easier than it looks. Lol. I've made and sold dozens of Christmas Wreaths using just wire coat hangers and sticky green floral tape that I wind around each bunch of "greenery" and then around the coat hanger. I start at the top where the hook is and place the tip of each new bunch at approximately the "halfway point" or "waist" of the previous bunch (and also a little bit more to one side than the other) as I move backwards along the hanger. The more bunches you attach, the fuller your wreath will be. When done, just use wire or hot glue to add on any ornaments and bows that you would like on it. And, if you like, you can always buy a can of "snow" and flock the wreath, ornaments and all, so it looks like snow fell overnight. Lol. I've also made and sold grapevine wreaths, wrapping and tucking each vine into the other vines as I wind them around my arm, much like winding up a hose or rope into a circle...entwining the new vine into the older vines, tucking and bending as I go along. VERY easy to do! :) Believe me, once you start doing this, you'll find just how easy it actually is. If you're planning on adding bunches of longish twigs to your branch/grapevine wreath, keep in mind that if your bunches are a little on the thick side, "fanning them out" a bit when in a bunch usually looks better, covers up more empty space, and adds more individual design to the wreath. :) Also, if your underlying wreath frame is vine or branch, be aware at how heavy or one-sided your total wreath weight is becoming as you add more things to it. If your wreath base seems thin or at the "it should at least work for this year" stage, you certainly don't want THAT to bend or crack, becoming mishapen because your bunches and decorations were too heavy or lopsided. Lastly, when using floral tape, you want it to blend in and not be seen. So try to match your tape's color to what you are using as a "bunch". Thankfully, floral tape comes in quite a few different colors. :) Hope this has helped anyone who's thinking about making a wreath for Thanksgiving or Christmas. DO IT! It's so much fun, and well worth the effort!! Plus, your wreath will look far better than most being sold in stores! :)
Wow. The old troom troom is so much better then the new one...
Wow thank you for coming into my life...unbelievable!!!
