Tips & Warnings
You can use real dried flowers or leaves rather than silk flowers for the wreath. Dried flowers will give the wreath more detail and will still last if stored properly.
Don't keep gourds on the wreath when you put it up for storage. Bugs may get to it and ruin the gourds and the wreath. Use new gourds each year.
