How to make a wreath unusual? How to decorate? In this master class, a detailed description of how to make a wreath on the head of autumn leaves with apples, mountain ash and satin ribbons.

Materials and tools:

– floral wire;

- a candle or a lighter;

- thermal gun;

- Maple leaves;

- green leaves;

- Polish for hair;

Note:

It is desirable to find leaves of medium size with long legs. The small size of the leaves is suitable for making a children's wreath. Large leaves do not look very harmonious on the head and cover the face.

In the composition for diluting the color, ordinary green leaves are suitable.

If it was raining outside, the autumn leaves are dirty, then you can put them in a bag, rinse them at home under water, spread them on a newspaper and wait a little until they dry a little.

If the apples are slightly browned or barrel-shaped, as in the example, it's okay, because they will be in the leaves and it will not be very noticeable.

It is difficult to assemble a wreath with short stems, so in some places we fix it with a thread so that the wreath does not crumble.

Apply hairspray to apples. In one hand we hold an apple, with the other we spray varnish at a distance. We put it on the surface, wait for it to dry. Apples thus acquire shine.

We take the floristic wire and pierce the apple through the bottom. Then we make a loop and wrap one end of the wire around the other.

We take floristic wire - this will be the frame. We apply one apple in the center and twist the wire around the main one. Then, at a distance from the first apple, twist 2 more apples.

Set aside the apple frame. Now we begin to weave a wreath. Take two maple leaves. Lay one sheet on top of the other.

We make a turn of one leg around the other.

We substitute more leaves, tie on a thread.

Add more leaves.

We measure the wreath around the circumference of the head. If not enough, then we also weave maple leaves, if it fits, then we no longer weave the leaves, we tie the tail on a thread.

We substitute a wreath of leaves to the frame of apples. We tie with a thread.

We take rowan, a small piece of wire and teip tape. We bend the wire in half, put it on the rowan inflorescences and fix it on the teip tape.

We fix the mountain ash next to the apples. We wrap the wire with rowan around the frame.

Hide the ends of the wreath on the sides. Apply glue and tie with a satin ribbon. We leave the edges of the ribbon long to tie into a bow at the back of the head. We melt the edges of the ribbon over a lighter or a candle so that the satin ribbon does not split.
