Step 3

Starting with your wired wreath. Collect you twine bundle and tie on the end of the string to your wired wreath.

This is your starting point and finishing point. (Remembering to leave a little bit of excess hanging to use this to tie off at the end)

Step 4
Now with your selection of textured foliage and blooms, bundle a few piece together (making sure you have variety), place this bundle on top of the wired wreath and with your other hand gather your twine and bring it up and over the top of the stems and back under, pulling it tight.
