Made Spring Wreath for Donna for Mother's Day
First time I have used a wire wreath frame. I bought a strand of silk leaves, and wired them to the frame first, then wired each flower, and added a ribbon. Wondering if anyone has used the wire frame to make a wreath, and how did you attach everything? Mary

Very pretty wreath Mary, I have not used the wire wreath yet, but I was thinking maybe floral tape or wire.

Very pretty!
I have made wreaths, but never witha wire frame. When I used a grapevine wreath, I hot glued things, but that eventually dries out. I wire things to fresh Christmas wreaths, so I'd probably do the same for this.

Thanks!!! It's a learning process for me. I did look online for directions in using a wire wreath frame, but did not really see anything different than what I did. With each flower, I wove the stem in and out of the frame, and wired in several places. You're right about the glue drying!! I had made a wreath for one of our Daughter's, and hot glued starfish. Because her front door faces the sun, some of the starfish fell off. Mary
