1

Begin with a wreath frame (available at craft stores) in the circumference size you want for the inner circle of your wreath.

2

Next gather several thin olive branches. Separate out the sprigs that have olives on them, so they can be evenly distributed once the wreath is constructed. To create the wreath, begin by making a garland of the leafy olive branches (see garland instructions, page 88) as long as needed to cover the wreath frame.

3

Then, beginning at what will be the top of the wreath, set the garland on the frame and wrap with floral wire in a spiral around both the garland and the frame, being careful to avoid the leaves so they don’t get flattened.

4

Once the entire frame is covered in the olive branch garland, tuck in additional branches with olives and then attach them to the wreath frame using additional wire. If desired, tie a ribbon around the top of the wreath as a pretty hanger.
