Active Time20 minutes
Total Time30 minutes

Equipment

  • 1 Glue gun/ Glue sticks
  • 1 Pair of scissors
  • 1 Pair of wire cutters

Materials

  • 1 Pk Hydrangea flower heads
  • 1 Pc Wire heart shaped wreath form
  • 1 Roll Pink burlap ribbon

Instructions

  • The first step is to add the ribbon to the wreath form. Measure how long your ribbon should be based on where you are going to hang the wreath (approximately 12"-16"). Using scissors, cut the ribbon length. Using your hot glue gun add glue to each side of the top of the heart and wrap the ribbon until it is secure. (see photo)

  • Next, with your wire cutters separate the hydrangea head blossoms into smaller more useable pieces.

  • Start placing the blooms that you just cut apart around the parimeter of the wreath. Once you know where the blooms are going add a dab of glue to the wreath form and press the hydrangea stem into the glue until the glue dries (approx 10 seconds)

  • With the outside and inside blooms in place now move to add the hydrangeas to the top. For this, it may be easiest to put a dab of glue directly on the end of the flower stem and then hold the flowers in place until the glue has dried.
