Equipment

  • Glue Gun
  • Pruning Shears or Wire Cutters

Ingredients

  • 8-10 inch Green Foam Wreath from the Dollar Store
  • Variety of Faux Succulent Plants
  • Glue Sticks
  • 2- inch Satin Ribbon

Instructions

  • Begin by heating up the hot glue gun. 
  • Next, cut a piece of ribbon about 2 feet long and hot glue the ends together to form one loop.
  • Simply loop the ribbon around the wreath and tie in a larks head knot.
  • Then fill the wreath with faux succulents. Hot glue them in place and pierce them into the foam wreath form. Let the string of pearls dangle down the wreath.
  • As pictured below, add some hot glue to the wire end of a succulent and poke it into the wreath.
  • Next, continue hot gluing and adhering the succulents to the wreath.
  • Trim the excess wire with the pruning scissors or wire cutters so the wires do not poke through the wreath form.
  • Continue to fill the wreath with succulents, divvying out the colors to spread them all over the wreath.
  • Then use these smaller pieces as filler on the wreath to cover any open or empty spaces.
  • Add a big bow right in the center or leave it open and admire the greenery.
