All the items used are listed in the description with item numbers. The best way to find the items is through the item number. Some of the photos are older and are in the process of being remade, but you can be guaranteed the items used look more like they do on the video than some of the photos reflect. Let us know if you need help finding something. 😁

I keep forgetting to mention that in January I went to FAIR OAKS FARM and had lunch in the big dining room and saw the MOST beautiful Christmas tree I ever laid eyes on. It was white and Crystal and snowy with the biggest icecicles I've ever seen . I know it was inspired by your work or actually done by you.I live 10 minutes from there in Indiana. Later I saw that your products are available there but I haven't been back. You bring joy and happiness to so many with your talent . You are truly blessed. 💖 As well as being a blessing . 🌞

[@DavidChristophers]

We can't take credit for decorating the tree, but we are happy you thought of us when you saw it. It sounds lovely. Thank you for being so kind. Have a wonderful week.

Your ability to turn a pile o' greenery and floral bushes into these amazingly gorgeous creations never ceases to amaze me. They would add grace and refinement to any event. I look forward to every tutorial you both produce. Thank you! I think you missed the true significance of video, however. You just answered the question of every high school sophmore in the history of the world, that ever sat through a geometry class asking, "Why do I have learn about Pi? Name me one time when will I ever use this again in my life."

[@DavidChristophers]

Hahah Yes! Great point. Thank you for watching and always interacting with us. Viewers like yourself make it fun!

[@gracielaayon5767]

You are the best, David and Jenn! I never leave without a big smile and a chuckle! The garlands and wreath are simply exquisite - love to see your vision come to life in the beautiful pieces you fashion!! Really like your tee 👕, Jenn. Loved our visit - be blessed this weekend♥️

[@DavidChristophers]

Thank you for watching. We’re happy to hear you always leave smiling. 😁❤️

[@janicebelcher2829]

You two got me laughing so hard about Pi and math and getting your own switches and all the rest. Appreciate you both! David, hope you feel better soon. God bless!

[@DavidChristophers]

Thank you so much.

[@donnaj6987]

[@SABOREAME68]

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ David, besides being creative you're also good with math. Jen is more like me even though I'm an anesthesiologist, I wasn't that good in school when it came to math. You guys stay safe & healthy... Abrazos

[@DavidChristophers]

Thank you! Have a great weekend.

What’s great about this wired garland is that it can be shaped into a square, oblong, etc. Beautiful eucalyptus stems. Your videos are great inspiration and advertising in the best way. I am enjoying my recent David Christopher’s purchase and can’t wait for Fall and Winter. I’m already looking at Fall decorating videos this 30th day of May.

[@DavidChristophers]

We are so glad you like the videos. We will be starting Fall Decor videos soon. Our fall items will arrive in August. Woohoo! 🍂❤️

[@angelialarkin2116]

David Christophers - I'm trying to find out who won the wreath giveaway how can I find it?

[@maryalicehuffstetler3026]

Chocolate pie or coconut cream pie is my favorite...🤣🤣🤣...I'm with Jen, you went over my head with all that "nerd measuring"..🤣. I also sound like a frog when I talk. Did you cough and not cover your mouth? You sent all your germ up my way...😉😊😂. The arrangements are beautiful!!!

[@DavidChristophers]

haha Thank you, Mary Alice. Hope you feel better soon.

[@doanetriggs6254]

Each of these garlands are EXCEPTIONAL!. If there had been a hyperlink to your store I would immediately have played an order. It is enormously helpful to have a list with order numbers and would be even more helpful if an item count were added for the projects made.

[@DavidChristophers]

We listed the hyperlink and items used, with their item numbers, in the description. We have a separate site for wholesale and retail since we sell both, so we send everyone to www.davidchristophers.com so they can choose if they are wholesale or retail and shop from there. Hope you found the link, item numbers and descriptions. We don’t always list quantities as people’s project sizes vary, but we can attempt to do so in the future. Let us know if we can help. Thanks for watching. 😁

[@doanetriggs6254]

@@DavidChristophers I actually saw the list. But I think, I was asking, that would be a little more meaningful is if the list had a direct hyperlink. I was looking specifically, for the branches, but even in going into your website I wasn’t quite sure with the correct branch was. I live in Hawaii and I am not a wholesaler but rather a person who loves floral design and eagerly await each video that. you produce. Please know that my suggestion is only in the interest of facilitating your viewers in accessing your products more readily. I probably would’ve ordered by now if I could have had a direct hyperlink. It is wonderful that you go to such effort and making your products available. Those of us who they live in outpost, or always eager for a source that offers quality items.

[@DavidChristophers]

We appreciate you so much. If you got to our site and enter the DC item number from the description in the search box, it should pull up the item for you. If we hyperlink each item, we could be sending our wholesalers to the wrong place since the websites are totally separate and requires approval. But I think your suggestion is wonderful. Is this what you’re looking for: shopdavidchristophers.com/search?q=Dc21169

[@doanetriggs6254]

@@DavidChristophers There is always a larger perspective and this makes perfect sense! I’ve been in your website many times, very well laid out. The bottom line is that I can do a flower count as David is working, and go from there. I am a retail customer who loves floral design.

[@DavidChristophers]

Also, on our retail home page, we have Projects as Seen on KZbin and you can click which video you watched and all the products are listed in one place. ☺️ Have a wonderful day!

[@Sunny-rh1yp]

I love how you share your talent with us. Thank you! I was wondering how do you finish off the branch end full of stems without being bulky for a table runner?

[@DavidChristophers]

You can add flowers to the end with the stems pointing towards the inside of the Garland so it doesn’t show. Thanks for watching. ❤️

[@jamesredd7416]

David I'm with you I like anything wired from ribbon to leaves it makes the biggest difference in the world I just love the wiring even on small branches or pics anything especially ribbon I used to work with ribbon that didn't have wiring oh brother it was okay but the wired ribbon makes it so much easier the wire trunks of little branches makes it so much easier it's just prettier I love curly Willow even the fresh but if I had that in wired it would be even better

[@gloriagarcia8025]

Love it😍

[@rosannadelvecchio928]

Bellissime!!!

[@mariluzguillen242]

Preciosas!

[@blondegoddess65]

I swear Jennifer’s approach is the same as mine. Math is too much thinking! I’m really wanting to do a garland on my arbor outside will the foliage hold up?

[@DavidChristophers]

Hi there. We could recommend some items that would last longer outside if you’re interested. Send us an email at [e-mail] Thanks!

[@MP-xf6gq]

LOL Yes, David does sound a bit "funny". lol Hope you feel much better soon. Enjoy your weekend.

[@DavidChristophers]

Thanks, you too!

[@terrystarnes4413]

I hope you are feeling better soon! Isn’t today you were doing the wreath giveaway! I have been waiting to see if I won! 😊❤️

[@DavidChristophers]

Yes, ma’am. We made a post today and pinned the winner’s comment to the top. 😃

[@janeparrish4271]

What could you do at the end of garland with bare stems to not show? Could you bend them back underneath of the garland?

[@DavidChristophers]

You could add stems to the bottom with the flowers facing up and the stems would be in the middle instead of on the bottom. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.

[@pamelawillis6036]

So how do you cover the end stems??

[@DavidChristophers]

You can add flowers on the end with the stems pointing toward the middle, and you won’t see the end stems. ☺️
