Adding More "Snow" to the Fireplace . . .

Continue to decorate the fireplace by adding a fresh wreath to the center of the fireplace.

Artificial Christmas trees are so convenient, but memories are created by using all the senses. Choose a wreath of mixed fresh Christmas greenery to add aroma to the Holiday Season.

​You will need:
                Wreath of Fresh Christmas Greenery
                Christmas Lights
                #40 Christmas Ribbon
                Small Christmas Ornaments
                Baby’s Breath
                Floral Wrap Tape 

Choose a wreath that has a variety of evergreens. Some wreaths are decorated with pine cones. This pre-made wreath has pine cones in the evergreens. Add a bow at the top of the wreath.

I began by adding the Christmas tree lights. Cover the wreath with the lights making sure that the lights evenly cover the greenery.  I added small silver Christmas ornaments to add more shimmer.

Take small clusters of Baby’s Breath and secure the ends with the floral wrap tape. Add the clusters heavily to the wreath to create the “snow” effect. Be sure to add Baby’s Breath to the center of the bow.

I hung the wreath using fishing line and fish hooks. CAREFULLY, thread one end of fish line through a fish hook and the other end through a wire form of the wreath behind the bow. Determine the length of fish line needed, and thread the other end of the fish line through another fish hook. Carefully, hook one fish hook near the ceiling or molding, and hook the other fish hook at a distance to create the height needed for your wreath placement. The distance of the hooks need to make the wreath centered and the correct height.
