Since the corks tend to slide around until the glue sets I use floral pins to hold them in place so I can move along around the wreath. Remove the pins when glue is set. You can use floral pins as a handy hanger as well, insert at a downward angle on the back of your wreath, add some reinforcing glue.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1899425964496948972.post-35337620054824942522010-11-22T04:56:12.753-08:002010-11-22T04:56:12.753-08:00LOVE these ideas!!!!

Pin the leaf cutouts right into the foam, overlapping as you go around. The corks look a little trickier, I'm betting they're wired together somehow, harder to pull off and probably involves drilling the corks first so they don'tbethanyhttp://www.sanemoms.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1899425964496948972.post-30242753780724386682010-11-20T13:49:34.934-08:002010-11-20T13:49:34.934-08:00Hi Jessy (and Yvonne).

Like what kind of circular contraption are you starting out with? What kind of glue are you using? How are you getting the ties to stay stiff and are you gluing them together or stapling?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05678325161211460823noreply@blogger.com
