Beautiful! You need to come out with a wreath making book next! I’d buy it in a heartbeat😊

[@theflowerfarmer]

I’ll add it to the list x

Hi, it’s an inspiring video, beautiful wreath! I did Christmas wreath making workshop last year in my local area. I really enjoyed and decided to make an autumn wreath by myself. Just buying some materials like wires, ribbons, dried fruits I have already spent a half of money which I paid the Christmas wreath! Sometimes you don’t know what things actually cost! Thanks for your video I’ll be out my rainy garden for foraging 😊

[@theflowerfarmer]

enjoy! x

Gorgeous wreath! You continue to inspired me. Thank you for sharing your craft.

This wreath was absolutely beautiful. I will be making one like this in the next few days. I'm a florist in NY and I so wish I was in the UK to meet you and work alongside you. You're an amazing gift! Thank you for bringing to light, our value and worth as florists and artists. The work that we do is very time consuming and detail oriented. It saddens me when some customer will say things like, they're just flowers, it can't be that difficult to make. But I've learned who my customers are and tell the other's that don't value my worth to just move along! You're an absolute delight to watch! I wish that I had discovered myself 30 years ago.. but I'm learning it's never to late to do what you love!

[@theflowerfarmer]

Ah Thankyou - nice to ‘meet’ you x

[@williamduden9728]

Hi loved watching your video but intrigued as to how you fix everything to the ring as never made one before and would love to have a go thank you 👍

[@theflowerfarmer]

I have a demo coming up - book a spot through my website and I take you through all the steps to make a great autumn wreath (skills transferable to other occasions eg Christmas) x

[@itsmewende]

Really great idea to make it so it can just be composted, love that. I did the conversion, your 95 to usd, I'd happily pay $111.01.

[@theflowerfarmer]

Ah Thankyou x

[@sansprouts412]

Ah! You're amazing! Love the conscientiousness evident in your work and words.

I just went foraging this morning for my wreath base! I literally look forward to this time of year just because I love foraging so much. I’ve always used wire but now I’m looking at that mossy spot in my garden with interest 😂 thanks for the inspiration!!

[@theflowerfarmer]

Go for it - and enjoy x

I love your gorgeous sticky-out-of-it wreath. I'm hooked.

[@theflowerfarmer]

Thank you so much! x

[@tinaelliott2857]

I love your creativity with everything coming from your garden....beautiful. It's a real art and passion to create from materials grown on your own land. I do much the same, but not nearly as nicely done as your expertise.

[@theflowerfarmer]

Ah Thankyou so much x

[@robindavis4843]

Gorgeous!! Love your style!

[@janicepilkenton9706]

Lovely wreath. I live on a wooded lot so, of course I have lots of moss. I love it and find many uses. A friend entered an arrangement in a county fair. She texted me saying she won a blue ribbon. Her arrangement with MY Moss.

Hurrah!

Oh I definitely subcribed. I am making autumn (Thanksgiving) wreaths right now, and I picked up a couple of tips from this video. Also, I like your style. You ARE doing the right thing. Oops, just noticed that this video was made last year- gave me a start when I saw October 28th, as I thought I'd somehow lost a few days!

I re watched this video just for fun. When you mentioned foraging it reminded me of something that happened years ago. My teaching partner wanted to make wreaths as gifts for members of her family. Everyone really loved their gift. However, everyone shows up with poison ivy at Christmas. The forager had unknowingly included poison ivy in all of the wreaths. Lesson learned? Forage in known territory?

[@theflowerfarmer]

aint that the truth! x

Come on my mossed wreath demo (book place on my website) and you’ll get ALL the details x

[@maynardgreenhouse]

I love the Willow idea but here we have wild fruitless grapevine that grows everywhere ugh so it’s a good opportunity to cut it down. At work I remove the moss that grows under the greenhouse benches but never thought of using it except for topping off potted plants. You’re wreath is at least worth 150-175$. Am I close?

[@theflowerfarmer]

Vine sounds great and miss will be perfect - I charge £95 for this so I’m clearly too cheap! Xxx
