 Crikey Not Christmas 2022 Part 18 

Now that the Ivy is sorted I can move onto the next step.

Glue Holly

 

Using the Pine Cones as a guide I Glue part of the underside of the Holly and then Stick it down.

Sew through Holly

 

I have already Sewn two Berries on the Holly. I am now Securing them with Thread to the Ivy. This will help the Holly stay in place.

Sew through Ring

 

To ensure it definitely won’t move I am Sewing through the Ring. With the rest of the Thread I will add a Third Berry under the other two.

Holly Berries Placed

 

The Holly and Berries are now complete. I will repeat the process with the other two Holly Leaves.

Add Mistletoe

 

I felt that the Sides of the Wreath were a little Bare. Therefore I Sewed on some White Buttons as Mistletoe.

Mistletoe and Holly

 

I dotted around the White Buttons around the Wreath. Making little Clusters of Mistletoe Berries. In the above photograph you can see the angle.

It is not entirely easy to spot but I have place the Mistletoe Berries on the Wool that was Wrapped around the Ring. This is so it looks like they are attached to a Vine.

Berries all Sewn

 

I have now completed the actual Wreath. The next part is to add the Ribbon and to be able to Hang it.
