Making a FRESH CHRISTMAS WREATH with foraged evergreens!

[@barbaradzitko1826]

Foraging for greens, berries, pinecones, etc. can be as much fun as looking for the right tree. This wreath is so nice and full. Really beautiful.

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Thanks so much! I totally agree, it's really fun to find all the different materials! I think I like this even more than looking for a fresh tree!

[@mootmootmootmoot9933]

It’s soooo beautiful 😍 love a natural wreath for Christmas 🎄 the rosehips look amazing in this wreath

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Thank you so much! They definitely add a special touch, don't they?

[@riverannie7]

Excellent design and not picking the roses is so smart so the rose hips get big. Just luscious looking !

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Thank you! Yes, I love the fall and winter interest of the rose hips!

[@peggyhawk2422]

Your wreath is absolutely beautiful! I love all of the different types of evergreen along with the colorful additions.

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Thank you! I love mixing it up and adding different greens to my wreaths!

[@janr4726]

That is truly Gorgeous!!! I wish we could smell the fresh greenery! ❤❤❤

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Thank you! Yes! Smells SO good

[@MariaNyceDesigns]

So beautiful, love everything about this foraged wreath! Thanks for sharing ❤

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

So glad you liked it!

[@dianebiasella673]

Dear Jenny, of all the wreaths I've seen you make, this one of my most favorites. The creativity, the colors and the different textures gathered together are beautiful!! Thank you for sharing your amazing talents and I look forward to all your future videos.

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

That's so kind of you to say, I'm so glad you like it!

[@WildRabbitWreaths]

I used to wildcraft for Christmas/winter decor every year! I loved it! I should get out there again this year. Thanks for the tip on using wilt stop. And PLEASE tell me you are going to dry some of those gorgeous rosehips for tea! (Only if you didn't use chemical sprays on them, though.)

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Love that! And yes I should! Thanks for the reminder!

[@nancyomond3996]

I could watch you all day making wreaths! Absolutely beautiful!!

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

I'm glad you're enjoying it!

[@judyroberts6591]

Absolutely beautiful!! I love fresh wreaths. Thank you for the demo.

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Thanks so much! I do too! I’m always sad when they die, though. lol

[@AlohaGirlCrafts]

Absolutely gorgeous! I asked my sister who is flying back from Colorado to forage with me when she returns. She declined. Lol. I cannot go by myself as the last time I visited the mountains a LARGE coyote was hanging out near me as I was taking photos of the juniper berries. I may just end up going to a wholesale florist and look at the winter items. Your videos are very wonderful and relaxing. Thank you, Jenny!

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Haha oh man, that sounds scary! Maybe a florist is the way to go.

[@angelahoffman7984]

This wreath is absolutely stunning

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Thank you!

[@Noshamemomgame]

I plan on going in my backyard, cleaning up some trees we have out there, and making a wreath, garland, and urn filler! This is so fun! Thanks for all the tips and tricks!

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Yes love that you can get so much from your back yard! I think as I add to my plants I’m going to keep in mind what I can use in wreaths as well.

[@carolynkopp4644]

It must have smelled amazing!

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Yes it did!

[@KarenAllen-pp3yl]

Jenny that wreath is stunning. You really enjoy what you do. ❤

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Thank you! Yes I do 🙌🏼

[@Sparklfoot]

Indeed! What a gorgeous wreath. You’ve got a nice forage forest there. Same here in California, but those rose hips are extraordinary. Thanks Jenny.

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Thank you so much! Yes, I’m so lucky to have a good spot to forage near my home. And I agree about the rosehips! They’re so beautiful!

[@DeborahSpence-wb2wp]

Love the foraged greens! I’ve never wrapped bundles on a wreath, you’ve inspired me. Thanks, Jenny! Merry Christmas!

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Thanks so much! I'm glad it inspired you! 🎄

[@debbiemason5267]

[@laurielasley6568]

That is beautiful, I live in the Evergreen state and never thought of doing what you did. Merry Christmas

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Nice! I used to live there and made fresh wreaths for my grandma’s business. It’s such a beautiful state.

[@laurielasley6568]

@@JennysWreathBoutique One of my brother and sister in laws used to live in Priest river, I have not traveled that much in your state except going to their house. I love the smell of fresh evergreens, my husband used to work in wood mills and always came home smelling like a tree, mostly cedar.

[@Kimberly-r9p]

Very beautiful love that you used fresh greens thank you for sharing

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Thanks for watching. Glad you liked it!

[@evelynhornyak222]

It is beautiful the green colors are so vivid.

[@sherijof]

Jenny it is so beautiful!!! I use a needle nose pliers to pull the wire through. It’s easier on the fingers! Great video!!!

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Thanks! Yes, that would definitely make things easier. I don’t know where mine are, though. Great tip!

[@sherijof]

@ I truly get you, lol. I get turned around and set things down in different places all the time. Happy Holidays Jenny!

[@DianeT-q5l]

Jenny, this wreath is a beauty!! As you were making the wreath I was wondering if this was how you made the wreaths for your Grandma?? ❤️ You had the perfect spot to gather such a beautiful variety of greenery!! I think the wreath came out magnificent!! ❤️. I just love it!!❤️

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Yes it was a similar method, except I used a wreath clamp, so each bundle was clamped, and I made them a lot faster that way.

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

You’re welcome! 😊 Thanks for watching!

[@carolynconnally4959]

I'm so jealous. The only evergreens that we have around here (Central Texas) are Live Oak (not good for a wreath), flat leaf cedar, and isolated trees successfully planted in someone's yard (better not use those). I love where I live, but regret that I cannot forage as you can.

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

I had to drive north about an hour and a half to forage for the evergreens. All the other good options were in other people’s yards too, and I agree, probably shouldn’t pick those! Lol

[@terryolson196]

I'd love to make a fresh wreath, but a member of our family had pine/fir allergies, so I have to stick with faux greens. Yours is so pretty! ❤

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Oh darn! Well faux greens are great too! That what I usually use anyway.

[@evelynhornyak222]

So interesting

[@glo-f6j]

OMG this wreath is beautiful, I am lost for words this is soooo gorgeous, I just love this. Are you starting up classes soon.❤❤❤❤

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

I’m so glad you like it! My wreath making VIP group is currently closed to new members, but will open again in early spring. I don’t have the exact dates. If you’re interested in selling your wreaths, I also have my stock your shop workshops available anytime.

[@IRIS-fi3si]

Wow wow gorgeous. Thank for this video. How do u make sure no lil bugs are hidden in the greenery? What did you spray it with to maintain its freshness?

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Thanks so much! You could hose it all down before bringing it inside to get rid of any bugs, but I didn’t do that. Thankfully I didn’t come across any bugs. Probably because it was so cold out. Then I sprayed with wilt stop when I was done to keep the moisture in. I linked that in the description

[@gabrieladragonne6328]

Beautiful Wreath!! Love the greenwry that you got around so much variety and texture, I love your creativity, thank You for sharing, question do you the name of the brown wire that you used at the beginning, tha ks!🎉❤

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Thanks! So glad you liked it! Oh yes, it’s bind wire. Here’s the one I use rstyle.me/+Kb7qwtdZ0j7peEClF4UYEA

@@JennysWreathBoutique thanks so much!

[@donnamayer1257]

Oh My!!! What an amazing wreath! We can't forage for pine around here, so I enjoy seeing everyone else's. I have a question, how do you get the sap off your hands?

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Thanks so much! Oh bummer! Maybe you can grab some trimmings from a tree farm or even get some from a florist. And the sap comes off just fine after scrubbing with some soap and hot water.

[@donnamayer5097]

Thank you Jenny! The closest big town near us is Tucson. I'll be there next week, I'll check a tree lot. I love in the desert, no tree farms near us. Thx! ​@JennysWreathBoutique

[@donnawitman3224]

Could you dye the rose hips with beet juice?

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

I’m not sure! I suppose you could!

What State do you live in? That is some beautiful greenery.

I live in Idaho. There’s not much where I live, but there’s a lot just north of me. So we had to drive about 1.5 hours North. Totally worth it!

[@carolyntownsend6657]

Where is the list of supplies?

There’s a short list of things in the description of this video, there’s not much supplies needed for this wreath. Just your fresh greens!

Omg they are the biggest rose hips i have ever seen...... lovely

Aren’t they gorgeous?! I love them.

[@sherrya6902]

But it’s FUN! You can also just grab fresh greenery from a store. I have a video I made last year using fresh greenery I picked up from Trader Joe’s
