- Cut a piece of wire about 18 inches long. It should be about 1 inch wide and have a small loop at one end.
- Find a floral foam piece that’s about 2 inches wide by 4 inches long. Cut it in half so that each half is about 1 inch wide by 1 inch long.
- Take one of the pieces of floral foam and place it on top of the wire loop, so that the loops are facing each other. Make sure that the ends of the foam are pointing in the same direction as the wire loops.

Step Four: Start wrapping the ribbon around the knot, making sure to tuck it underneath as you go. Make sure that all of the ends are tucked in before you finish tying off the wreath.
Step Five: If you want extra decoration on top of your wreath, add some fresh flowers or leaves now. You’re done!
