1. Prepare the Base
Start by stretching your duct conduit as long as possible.
Take a long piece of duct tape and wrap it around the edges of the ducting, securing it tightly.
The key is to ensure that the tape is tightly wrapped so the frame won’t pop open.
2. Wrap the Garland
Now it's time to wrap the wreath form with garland. Take your first strand of greenery and wrap it around the wreath base.
Keep wrapping until the entire base is covered.
Make sure to fill in any gaps by bending the garland strands to fit the shape of the wreath.
Once you’ve covered the wreath base completely, you might notice a few gaps. Simply fill these in with extra greenery or adjust the garland strands to cover them. The goal is to create a full, lush look.
3. Add Some Sparkle
For an extra touch, you can wrap battery-operated twinkle lights around the garland.
The warm glow from the lights will create a welcoming atmosphere and make your decoration stand out.
4. Prepare for Hanging
Decide where you want to hang your holiday wreath.
Use heavy-duty ribbon or string for this step.
Measure the length you need for hanging and tie it tightly to opposite sides of your wreath.
Leave two long strands on each side to hang the wreath from the ceiling or any mounted fixture.
5. Add the Ornaments
To create the illusion of floating ornaments, use clear jewelry string or fishing line.
Tie each ornament to the string and place them at varying heights around the wreath.
This will give your chandelier a beautiful, floating effect.
