Festive Advent Wreath

Everlasting flowers are trendy this year - they even can be used wonderfully at Christmas. This Advent wreath can be made without much effort and is something different from the usual wreaths made from fir branches.

that’s how it’s done:

The jute ribbon has the advantage that the straw wreath does not crumble. Secure it with a metal hook and wrap the wreath tightly.

Secure it with another hook at the end.

Then the candle holders can be attached. A ruler will help find even spaces.

Attach the everlasting flowers with the hot glue gun.

Chop up the large hydrangeas...

… and place them in the gaps.

Cover the lower third of the wreath with moss.

For the festive shine, the wreath is wrapped with bouillon wire.

Finally, put the candles in the holders - done!

I wish you a nice Advent season!
