Step by Step Instructions 

Gather Your Herbs

Prepare the Wreath Base

Lay your grapevine wreath flat on a table. Decide whether you want:

A full wreath ~ A half wreath ~ A small accent cluster

Attach the Herbs

Place one herb bundle on the wreath form and secure it tightly with floral wire. ~ Layer the next bundle slightly over the stems of the first bundle to hide the wire. ~ Continue around the wreath until complete.

Add Decorative Touches

You can decorate with:

Dried flowers ~ Cinnamon sticks

~ Burlap ribbon

~ Small lemons or oranges (dried)
