How many bunches of greenery and hypericums will I need to make this garland?

What floral supplies will I need?

  1. Floral Wire
  2. Rustic Wire
  3. Floral Scissor for trimming the greens.

How do I begin making my Eucalyptus Hypericum Garland?

  1. Spread your eucalyptus branches out on a flat surface. Line the silver dollar with the tree fern using four tree fern stems. Wrap the floral wire tightly around the stems and trim. Prepare 4 bundles in advance.
  2. Use 1-2 stems of seeded eucalyptus and 1 stem of hypericum berries; repeat step one. Prepare 4 bundles in advance.
  3. Unroll the rustic wire, and wait to cut until the garland is completed. Attach two bundles in the same direction to the rustic wire. Attach the other two bundles of silver dollar eucalyptus in the opposite direction.
  4. Attach the seeded eucalyptus bundles on top of the silver dollar eucalyptus, weave them in and tighten them with floral wire around the rustic wire.
  5. Make a small upright bundle of stems with seeded eucalyptus and hypericum berries and attach to the center of the garland to complete the look.
  6. Tips: Natural elements such as pinecones, silver, gold ting-tings, or twinkle lights can be added. Your garland can be made one day in advance. Spritz with water or lay on damp towels to keep hydrated.
