How to make a moss Christmas wreath
There’s nothing like a spot of wreath making to get you in the Christmas spirit. Follow our step-by-step guide to making a contemporary but natural moss wreath.

“This year’s interior trends have been heavily influenced by nature, with botanic styling being a key feature in many interiors schemes. Pantone Greenery has been the colour of the year, so with this in mind a Moss wreath is just the thing for Christmas 2017!”

Step 1
Purchase a moss covered straw wreath ring from your local florist or market. I prefer to use a moss covered wreath rather than just a straw wreath, as I find that the moss will keep growing and form roots into the underlying layer of moss, this means that you should be able to keep your wreath beyond Christmas, maybe even adding some additional décor for spring of even Easter!
Soak this wreath ring in water.
