Assembling the Eucalyptus Greenery
Creating a loose table wreath is simple and fun! Start by laying out your silver and seeded eucalyptus in piles of 4 stems each. Have the stems facing each other. Start with a bunch of seeded eucalyptus and a bunch of silver dollar, overlap stems, and tape them together. (you can mix the branches.) Tape the stems together with some leaves overlapping the tape.
Repeat the steps and make 4 bunches for each candle centerpiece. You can adjust the thickness by adding more or fewer stems depending on how thick you would like your centerpiece.
Now bunch together a few stems of your wax flower. Tape them at the end of the stems tightly. Make at least 3-4 bunches for each centerpiece.
Lay one bunch of eucalyptus overlapping each other in a circle. Don’t worry too much about the shape being perfect. You want it to have a free-flowing form. Take a bunch of wax flowers and tuck them in the eucalyptus leaves. Tape the wax flower to the eucalyptus stem to secure it. Make sure the floral tape is not showing. Add your candle holder, and you are done!
