Making Wire Wreaths Wire frames are the most versatile supports for wreath, and are sturdy enough for heavy materials. Attach floral wire on a paddle to the crossbar of a double- wire wreath.

Attaching Greenery Lay a small bundle of greenery on the form and wrap the wire TIGHTLY around the greenery 3 or 4 times. Do not cut the wire. Add another bundle of greenery overlapping the previous bundle.

Finishing the Wreath Add bundles until you reach the starting point Wrap wire around the wreath frame and secure with a knot or twist around itself, cut the wire and tuck in the end.
