TIP: I purchased this wreath from the Dollar Store and had it on hand. I would have preferred a thicker wreath, and possibly a styrofoam one like on Landee See, Landee Do but I just didnt have one handy.
2. Step two: If using a similar wreath to this, try using small amounts of super glue along the way to keep your pieces in place. I used one roll of 15 foot ribbon which was not enough.
