Adding a Loop to Silk Flower Wreaths

Video Transcript

"The next thing you need to do is figure out how you're going to hang your wreath or what kind and size of loop that you're going to need on it. I like to use the wrapped floral tape for several reasons. One, it hides. It can be blended in better. Cut a piece of wire. I tend to cut it fairly long. Hold it together and just twist, creating a loop. This is something wide enough that it will go onto a nail in your door. If you needed to make it over a hanger, you can make them wider. I then take the other one end of it and go through the center of it again to make sure that it doesn't slide on you and it stays in place. Then, you figure out with your finger basically where the wreath's going to hang. You place this on the back. Wrap it around both directions and twist it again. This is anchoring it in space. And, then I take this extra wire which is easy to hide and wrap down through the wreath. So, it takes some of the weight off of just that point of it and also adds help keep the wreath stable and together. This is viewed as just very natural looking and to be like grape vines, little curly-q's that they have on it. You can leave it show or tuck it on in there. And, the first thing that you need to do is go ahead an put that loop on here so you know how it's going to hang. Ok?"
