- Now, make a bow using the ribbon and tie it around the wreath’s top or bottom part. Your masterpiece is ready! Hang it wherever you like.
Nuts of various sizes have been used in this wreath to create patterns and layers. In addition, the entire frame of the form has been covered with nuts so that no part of it remains visible when it is decorating your front door or living room wall.
