To make simple evergreen wreaths, you will need some wire as a base – wire coat hangers will do the job and several 8″ to 10″ long greenery branches (redwood, pine, and douglas fir, etc.). Using floral wire or just some thin green yarn, secure the branches to the wreath base. Make sure to overlap the stems and keep adding stems until the wreath base is fully covered. Add red ribbon and hang them evenly.
