Within the next month we will be offering an easy to make Succulent Wreath, but for now, here are the fun instructions.
1. Submerge wreath in water for an hour or until all air bubbles escape.
2. Place wreath on waterproof table with hanger at 12 o'clock.
3. At 12 o'clock stick pencil in wreath and with your thumb gently open wide enough to fit in Sempervivum plug, avoid breaking fishing wire.
4. Gently place Sempervivum in whole.
5. Repeat with another whole about 4 inch down creating a mini triangle with the sempervivums.
6. Repeat the process around 8 o'clock 2 o'clock and 4 o'clock.
7. You are now ready to move on to the 9 Sedum's in Kit. Place sedums in between Sempervivums in a triangle format.
8 . You can add succulent cuttings at any time to fill in hole if you choose.
9. Keep your wreath flat for about two weeks before hanging it. The succulents need this time so their little roots can anchored into the wreath.
10. While it’s horizontal, use your wreath as a centerpiece or table decoration by the front door or on the patio – just be sure to keep it protected from rain. Do not water until wreath is dry, you will surely rot the plants if too much affection is given.
*Putting a focal element off-center, at 5 or 7 o’clock, creates more visual interest.
