25floral pins
1styrofoam wreath form
3red 3" Christmas ornaments
3green 3" Christmas ornaments
4smaller (2.5") plain red Christmas ornaments
3cupcake and ball ornament picks
3wrapped present picks
Instructions
Start by using a floral pin to pin the loop at one end of the first feather boa to the wreath.
Wrap the boa around the wreath form until you get to the other end. It should go around about 1/3 of the wreath.
Pin the other end of the boa to the wreath form.
Use the other side of the pin to attach the next feather boa to the wreath.
Keep wrapping the feather boas around the wreath form until it is completely covered.
Attach the ornaments by putting the end of a floral pin through the loop in the ornament and stick the pin into the wreath.
Pin 3 larger red ornaments onto the wreath, spacing them out.
Add 4 of the smaller red ornaments, also spacing them out and changing how far they are from the center.
Finally, add the 3 green ornaments.
Take apart the cupcake picks by pulling the ends off the main stem.
Trim the ends off the separated picks with a wire cutter Then push them into the wreath around the outside and inside edges of the wreath between the ornaments.
Trim the ends off the gift picks so they are 2" to 3" long and stick them into the wreath form.
Move around any of the ornaments that are too close together, or that you don't like the look of by pulling the pins out and re-positioning them.
Use another floral pin for the hook on the back of the wreath.
Hang the wreath on your door or wall using a small nail or a ribbon attached to a door hanger.
