How To Make This Honey Bees Floral Grapevine Wreath
Follow this wreath tutorial to put your cute ‘Welcome To Our Honeycomb’ grapevine wreath together so you can hang it on your door!
Step 1
Grab your sign and prepare it to add to the wreath. Add a dab of superglue to all 4 corners of the back of the sign. Top each dab of glue with a mounting square. Then, take your hot glue gun and glue around the edges of each mounting square to secure it.
Once the glue is dry, add a pipe cleaner to each mounting square.
Step 2
Take your greenery bunches and cut the smaller stems off the main stem. Repeat the same process with your floral pick!
Step 3
Prepare your grapevine base by inspecting it to see if there are any leaves or stems that jut out too far. If there are, just cut them off.
Step 4
Take your EZ Bow Maker and start making your bow. Grab your (4”) ribbon and make (2) 7” loops with 12” tails in an “X” shape.
Step 5
Grab your 2.5” ribbon and make 12” tails with (2) loops that are 6.5”.
Step 6
Take your 1.5” ribbon and make 12” tails with (2) 6” loops.
Grab a pipe cleaner and wrap it around the middle of your bow. Twist the pipe cleaner to secure the bow. Use the same pipe cleaner to attach the bow towards the bottom outside of the wreath form.
TIP: If you have trouble pushing the pipe cleaner through your grapevine, try this trick! Take your needle nose pliers and push them through the wreath. Use them to grab the pipe cleaner on the other side and pull back through so that the pipe cleaner comes out on the back.
Step 7
To make sure that your sign is incorporated well into the wreath design, go ahead and attach the wreath sign to the grapevine. Use the pipe cleaners that you attached to the mounting squares on the back.
Step 8
It’s time to add greenery! Before adding your greenery sprigs, I want you to move each piece of greenery around to loosen it up so it doesn’t look too straight and “perfect”.
Begin adding your greenery, pushing each stem individually into the grapevine from each side of the bow. Add a dab of hot glue to each stem before you stick it in the grapevine so that it dries and stays in place.
Step 9
Repeat the same process as you add the florals to your wreath. This will add a little fun texture and lighten up the darker greenery.
Step 10
Insert a couple of small sprigs into your bow to make the bow an even more integrated part of your wreath design. Trim your ribbon tails in a dovetail shape.
Step 11
Trim down the stems of the bee picks. Then, insert one pick into each side of your ribbon. Adjust the bees into the greenery to make them look like a very integrated piece of the design.
