If you're toying with the idea of making your own wreath, all you need are a few materials and 30 minutes out of your busy schedule :) I've laid out what I've done to make the below wreath so that anyone interested can loosely follow these instructions.
 |
| 1. Coil your grapevine into the loose size and shape that you like. Towards the end, twist your vine into the sprayed twigs. This will hold your wreath together naturally without having to tie twine or ribbon around it. |
 |
| 2. After deciding upon your top and bottom, twist a piece of chicken wire to the bottom-left of your wreath. Also add ribbon, twine, or wire to the top so that you will be able to hang your wreath on your door or wall. |
 |
| 3. I cut these leafy greens from my backyard and placed them into the chicken wire, and coiling a few twigs around the sides to give balance to the wreath. |
 |
| 4. Here I used white mums and white cabbage/kale however you can choose your own color palate and Fall flowers to fit your taste and occasion. I chose one "mass" flower and placed it on the bottom while clustering some supporting flowers around it. Finally I speckled some of the remaining mums I had around the wreath to tie it altogether. |
The final product, a light wispy wreath :)
