DIY FLOWER WREATH WITH HYDRANGEA
It is easy to tie your own wreath. Using strong steel wire or a metal ring, attach the flowers in small bouquets that are tied with floral wire or floral tape. You can advantageously cover the metal ring with floral tape before you start. In this way, you ensure that the flowers do not slide around.
ON THE PICTURE IS OUR DELICIOUS OIL BUBBLE IN AMBER/ROSE.
MATERIALS
- Metal ring
- Dried flowers
- Steel wire
- PAPER FLOWERS (Here we have used POPPY in red , POPPY in nude and AFRICAN LILY in pink )
Here are some tips for those of you who want to make your own wreath.
CHOOSE STYLE
Should it be simple in expression with the flowers sitting close together or have lots of volume and be looser in expression?
TAKE CONTROL OF COLORS
Should the wreath match your outfit, the theme of the party or similar?
HAVE MATERIALS READY
Break off the stems and flowers into suitable pieces so they are ready to attach to the wreath as you are ready. In addition to flowers, you must use floral tape (a type of paper tape with adhesive on both sides) and floral wire (paper-covered steel wire).

DIY WITH PAPER AND WITTLING
Paper weaving is about creating patterns, working with colors and creating different expressions. This project doesn't require much other than scissors and paper. Choosing colors, paper types and patterns are all artistic decisions and your opportunity to create a woven work that suits you and your home. Here we have played with transparent paper, and the finished works have come in our new acrylic frames from the FRAMELESS collection . The transparent paper gives the weaving an extra dimension - especially when the light flows through.
MATERIALS
- Paper strips in different colors. Here we have used transparent paper, which we have cut into different widths. You can also use quilling strips, which can be bought in different widths.
- Tape
- Glue
- Scissors
- FRAMELESS frame (Here we have used the model A5 in the color s moke)
