This berry wreath is a simple weave with ivy and salix (you could also use grapevine and ivy, or different widths of ivy vines). I used rose hip and pyracantha.
How to make this wreath:
Foraging by Flower Mob. Ribbon from Isabel Lara design em pano.

Wreath making season is underway! I enjoyed making this wild and free olive, rosemary, ivy, lavender, juniper wreath. No twine or wire was used in this wreath! I wove the base and wove everything on with ivy and salix. I tied on silk and velvet ribbons from the wonderful Isabel Lara. This wreath is actually difficult to photograph but in person, I just love the textural and movement filled composition. It warms up a room and makes me feel surrounded in green. A big thank you to Flower Mob for the incredible foraging for this wreath season. I look forward to João’s foraging deliveries every season!
You can learn wreath making with me on You Tube or through my Wreath Masterclass. I will be retiring the Wreath Masterclass after Friday, so sign up now for $27 before the class goes away forever!
Join me for foraged Christmas wreath making in this full workshop, now live on my You Tube. Learn how to add pinecones and fruit to wreaths without wire, making for a fully compostable wreath! I hope you get inspired to stay home today and make a wreath or maybe this is helpful as you navigate the wreath season, creating festive compositions for clients.
Learn to make your own Thanksgiving (or autumn) centerpiece in my new workshop. This is taken from one of my online programs and for the holidays, I wanted to share it for free on my You Tube channel.
This centerpiece is made with chrysanthemums, strawflower, and oat grass which were actually from the grocery store, however they were grown locally. I combined these grocery store flowers with foraged stems like olive branches and ivy berries. This is a great workshop if you are curious about how to use a kenzan (or flower frog) and how to build a low arrangement in a shallow bowl.
I love using unexpected yet still seasonal floral combinations at this time of year and these mauvy-pink chrysanthemums are perfect in combination with pomegranate and silvery green olive branches.
If you make a centerpiece inspired by this video, I’d love to see it!
It’s that time of year again when wreath making and wreath workshops take over! I absolutely love wreath making and I love sharing it with those new to the craft or seasoned wreath makers through our virtual wreath making classes. We have an amazing partnership with a regenerative farm who supplies our wreath kits for our private class bookings.
There are a few different ways to participate in our wreath workshops:
PRIVATE GROUPS AND TEAMS VIRTUAL WREATH WORKSHOP:
Book your work team or private group for one of our virtual wreath class options. We can provide wreath kits for private groups and teams through our regenerative farm partner. All the methods taught in these classes are compostable. Take a look here.
In this online streaming class, you will learn 3 styles of wreaths: Classic, Fruited, and Foraged. You can stream the class at any time for an ongoing period of time. We are not able to provide kits for this class unless you book a group for the class. Take a look here.
