Here is an easy way to create some boxwood wreaths for very little money, and practically no time! Using this boxwood garland and a few other supplies, I made this super cute backdrop for my Friendsgiving pie tasting party. This would be cute at a wedding luncheon, or just as some cute seasonal decor!

Step

First make your “wood” background. I just cut a piece of paper about 4 feet long. I hung it on the wall using sticky tab.

You need to cut the boxwood. You take the garland and using the side cutters, cut it into thirds.

Then hold the wreath up and see which direction makes the best circle. Tie the top with a piece of ribbon.

Finally, attach the wreaths to the wood background with push pins.

If a couple of areas need to be pinned down, just hide them under the leaves.
