TIP
The foliage on this wreath should last a couple of weeks without water, but keep it looking fresh by adding new blooms or berries every couple of days.
You will need
• Rattan wreath base
• Spruce and pine
• Sea holly or thistles
•Pine cones
• Mini silver baubles
• Eucalyptus cinerea or baby blue
•Eucalyptus parvifolia
•Florist’s wire
•Florist’s scissors
•Wire cutters
• 1m green velvet ribbon
•Buckets
• Flower food (optional)
1 Begin with the spruce and pine cuttings: snip down to15cm-length pieces and remove any leaves from the bottom 5cm. Thread the pine and spruce into the weave of the rattan wreath, focusing on one area and arranging sprays of pieces either side of this. Build on the foliage with clippings of eucalyptus to cover any bare pieces of rattan on show.
