DIY Christmas Wreath Making Basic Kit - 14" details

Product Description

The 14" DIY Basic Christmas Wreath Kit is perfect for those who want to make their own Christmas wreath, but also want to gather their winter foliage and decorations themselves. Whether you have access to fresh foliage in your garden, or you enjoy responsibly foraging, our basic wreath kit includes all the sundries you will need, excluding the fresh foliage.

Simply add evergreen foliages such as Conifer, Spruce, Ivy, Pine and Holly and finish with decorations such as orange slices and cinnamon sticks.

This smaller kit is perfect if you’re looking to decorate a wreath for your own front door or if you’re wanting to purchase the basics for a wreath-making party or family get-together. It also makes the perfect gift to send for a festive rainy day activity.

You can also use an over-the-door wreath hanger which are commonly available,  or a Command Wreath Hook.
Safety Precautions

Not suitable for human or animal consumption.

Some flowers, foliages and berries are toxic to both pets and people, so please keep them out of reach of children and animals.

Please note that any fruits, seeds or decorations that are provided as part of the Christmas Wreath DIY kits are not for human consumption.

If your door has a porous paint finish, take precautions to protect the paintwork on your door by adding the plastic wreath wrap provided to the back of your wreath. This helps to protect your door from the moisture in the moss.

We recommend removing the wreath from your door during heavy rainfall or high winds.

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

What is the best way to care for my fresh Christmas Wreath?

When you hang your fresh Christmas wreath, you should protect it from any extreme seasonal weather such as heavy snow, rainfall or high winds. To keep your wreath fresh, spray your wreath and the moss base using a water spray bottle every few days, or as often as needed to keep the base damp-to-touch. Be mindful that fruit slices such as apple and orange slices can go slightly soft or soggy if exposed to too much moisture, so be sure to move your wreath to a sheltered location if you are expecting rainfall. You should always keep your Christmas wreath hanging outside where possible as exposure to indoor heating will shorten the life of your wreath.

How can I hang my wreath on my front door without damaging it?

All of our luxury wreaths and DIY wreath kits come with a brown string loop to attach the wreath to your front door.

If you have a door hook or knocker, you can simply secure your wreath to the hook or knocker using the brown string provided. If you don't have a door hook or knocker, you can use an over-the-door wreath hanger or an adhesive 3M Command Hook. Avoid adding additional nails or screws in your front door as this will damage the paint work.
