Make sure you harvest sturdy, woody vines that will keep it's shape when you design with it.

Creating a wreath filled vine to design with

Weave wreaths in the foliage stems of a Wisteria vine.

See the Tutorial below for more detailed instructions on how to weave a vine wreath.

Place the wreath in a container. You can choose a narrow container to wedge the vine inside...

Or a taller container to wind the wreath around...

Or curl the vine in a shallow container...

Let the flower stems stand upright on the vine.

Let the flower stems stand upright, supported by the vine. You might have to add a bit of glue to keep the flowers perfectly upright in places where there are fewer vine stems...

... or simply nestle the flower stems between the vine to stay in place.
