Step-by-step instructions for your DIY Advent wreath
Step 1: Cut the flower arrangement foam to size and fill the zinc bowl
First, take the flower arrangement foam and cut it to size with a cutter knife so that it fits perfectly in your zinc bowl. Make sure that the bowl is completely filled with the flower arrangement foam to create a stable base for your Advent wreath.
Step 2: Spread and fix the moss
Now spread the moss evenly over the flower arrangement foam. If the moss doesn't hold well, you can fix it in place with some hot glue. The moss gives your Advent wreath a natural and festive look that is perfect for the Christmas season.
Step 3: Attach the candles and candle holders
Plug the candles into the candle holders and place the candle holders in the zinc bowl. Make sure that the candles are secure and evenly distributed. They are the centrepiece of your Advent wreath and create a cosy atmosphere.
Step 4: Add the chain of lights and scatter decorations
Now place the chain of lights and the scatter decorations decoratively on the moss. Make sure that the battery compartment of the chain of lights is easily accessible. The small lights and decorative elements will give your Advent wreath a magical glow and make it the highlight of your Christmas decorations.
Step 5: Position the battery compartment
Plug the battery compartment of the chain of lights into the back of the zinc bowl. This way, it remains invisible and you can easily switch the chain of lights on and off.
Step 6: Tie a bow and attach
Use the linen ribbon to tie a pretty bow. Use the hot glue to attach the bow to the moss. The bow rounds off your DIY Advent wreath in style and adds a touch of elegance.
