Jasmine makes a great flower for a Christmas wreath.
What you will need:
• An oasis ring available from Spotlight, Lincraft or some flower stores
• 2-3 bunches of greenery
• Lengths of jasmine or any flower of your choice
How to:
1. Soak the oasis ring in water for about five minutes (don't press oasis ring down as this will cause air bubbles to enter foam, creating dry spots).
2. Cut greenery into 10cm lengths - each length should have a stem about 5cm long, with two leaves at the top. Working around the side of oasis ring, push stems well in on a slight angle, keeping the angle the same all the way around. Repeat process on top of ring.
3. Dot small lengths of jasmine around wreath, pushing into oasis ring on an angle as you did with greenery.
4. There is no need to add a loop for hanging as the wreath is easily hung on a nail or hook however it is up to you.
