Wreath Art - Materials and Equipment
There are several items you will need; a wreath or wreath form. If you use the latter, you may need either Spanish Moss or a moss cloth to cover the form.
You will also need floral tape and/or wreath making wire and all the items you want to use on the wreath. Wired wooden picks are also handy to have within reach and don't forget the wreath hanger!
As far as equipment goes: a glue gun, heavy duty clippers and a pair of scissors will go long ways.
When using a glue gun, my advice is to ensure that you have more then enough glue sticks available. You will go through them quicker then you think and I am talking from my own experience here.
Another tip I would like to give you is: if possible, 'dry fit' the items of your choice on the wreath first, before gluing them on. That will give you a good idea of where to put them and if the end result would be the way you had intended and envisioned it.
I suspect once you start this craft, you will enjoy going around in circles!
