This living wreath is made with fresh and dried flowers which will dry and stay beautiful for years.  From wedding to sympathy, this piece will be a lasting remembrance.   

 

  Supplies:
18" Oasis Wreath
9 - Hydrangea
1 - Group Seeded Eucalyptus
5 - stems purple status
9 - Dried Roses
5 - Stems Heather 
1 - Stem Misty Blue
5 - Pipe Cleaners
  

To begin, soak your oasis in water.  Take pipe cleaners and tie around wreath evenly (used to hold wreath together after drying and also to hang on wall).  Begin adding the seeded eucalyptus into base of ring in circle.  If you do not have a pick machine, you will want to tie a wire around each group of eucalyptus before inserting into oasis.

Next, divide your hydrangea into sections and add in circle around wreath.

This shows the wreath with the 9 hydrangea stems and seeded eucalyptus added.  You might stop here and add a simple double satin ribbon woven through the wreath.  Wonderful used on wedding table with punch bowl in middle.  

Here we are adding our dried roses, heather and misty blue.  Place unevenly into wreath giving a more designed look.

After the event, whether it be a sympathy tribute or wedding celebration, this wreath will look beautiful for years to come.

You will need to send a note with this bouquet if giving as gift, to let the recipient know to keep and allow to dry naturally.
