Bend a section of wire in a circle
Twist the ends to secure.
Split a long leaf to remove the hard vain
Spread floral glue on both leaf halves
Roll the leaf around the wire
Overlap the ends and secure with glue
Glue the other half of the leaf to the inside of the ring
Follow the circle and cover the wire. Press the two leaf-halves to glue to the wire but leave the sides slightly gaping so that the silver wire peaks out at the sides.
