Spray paint

Choose a well-ventilated area and protect your surface with newspaper. Lay your sprigs and seasonal berries on the paper and spray until you’ve achieved your desired tone of gold. Let them dry completely.

Create the frame

Cut a piece of floral wire and form it into a circular shape of your desired size. Loop the wire a few times to make the frame stronger. Connect the ends of the wire by twisting them together.

Go green

Start with festive greenery, saving the gold berries and buds for last. Use floral tape or twine to fix the first few pieces of greenery around the ring until there is greenery wrapped around the entire wire.

Add the bling

Continue to tie or tape pieces to the wreath until it has reached your desired fullness. Pieces of greenery can be woven into the tied pieces as well. To finish, add the gold berries and buds.
