Branches & Blooms
A grapevine wreath festooned in fall flowers captures the striking shades of the season. Display on a door or high above the mantel, and carry it on through the holidays by simply swapping the blooms to fit the festivities.
Materials:
- Floral wire wrapped in brown floral tape
- Artificial bittersweet branches
- Grapevine wreath
- Igloo-shaped floral foam cages, soaked
- Croton leaves
- Sunflowers
- ‘Cherry Brandy’ roses
- ‘Miracle’ roses
- ‘Circus’ roses
- ‘Mambo’ spray roses
Step-by-Step:
Step 1. Using the wrapped floral wire, attach bittersweet branches to the grapevine wreath.
Step 2. Secure igloo cages to the wreath by placing wire through the small tabs on each side of the cage.
Step 3. Place croton leaves into igloo cages to form a base. (If needed, trim leaves near bottom to create a longer stem.) Add sunflowers to create a focal point, and then fill in with roses and spray roses.
