Step 1

Cut the stems off all of your faux branches using the wire cutters. Cutting all of your branches in advance will make the steps go faster and easier. For thicker branches, you can use heavy-duty bolt cutters.

Step 2

Lay down your first layer of branches in a rough formation across the face of the grapevine wreath. Push the ends of the branches in between the vines of the wreath. It's okay for the branches to look a little messy in this step — you'll clean up the look in Step 3.

Step 3

Cut about five to 10 pieces of wire, roughly six inches in length each. You'll use this wire to attach the branches evenly to the wreath form. Twist the ends of the wire together at the back of the wreath to securely hold the branches.
