A fragrant Christmas wreath will delight guests before they step through the door
For a classic door decoration with a welcoming scent, team ivy, roses, eucalyptus, lavender and rosemary
Step 1: Prepare the foam ring
Take the florists' ring and soak it in cold water for one hour. Remove.
Bind florists' wire around the ring several times in one spot and
secure it at the back with another piece of wire, leaving an excess of
50cm for hanging on the door. Trim all the ivy into 8-10cm sprigs.
Step 2: Push in pieces of ivy
Arrange the ivy sprigs so the leaves all lie in one direction, then push the stalks into the foam. Continue inserting the ivy until the foam is evenly covered on one side and the wreath looks bushy. Make sure that the edges of the ring are concealed, too, with ivy extending slightly outwards over the rim.
