DIY Succulent Wreath Kit from Close To My Heart

Here is a video on how to put the wreath together at home.



You can add dimension by sponging the edges with ink.

My Friend Leslie Malnik-Miller‎ created this one using these items and look how beautiful it turned out.

Here are some products to consider when ordering your wreath.
• Adhesives: We have a variety of adhesives that will make assembling the wreath kit easier, particularly Glue Dots™ (1772) and Liquid Glass (Z679).
• Quilling Tool (Z1795): This crafting staple will really come in handy when rolling the 3-D flowers included in the wreath kit.
• Sponge Daubers (Z726): Explain to customers that if they want even more dimension on their wreath, they can add shading to the succulents and flowers by sponging a little color along the edges. Be sure to offer your favorite colors of Exclusive Inks™ stamp pads to use for the shading!
• Spray Pen (Z1380): This product is another fun way to add color to the wreath, especially when paired with your favorite color of Exclusive Inks™ re-inker.
• Watercolor Paints (Z3132): Watercoloring is still making waves in the world of crafting, so be sure to share this item with any new customers, along with our awesome waterbrushes (Z3224, Z4225, or Z3226).

• Cut Above™ Layout Kits: Anyone who loves the pre-cut pieces in the wreath kit is sure to love our new Cut Above™ layout kits, which also feature pre-cut pieces that just need to be assembled. 

I will have my wreath done soon and will post it here so you can see the difference.
