Begin by heading to a well-ventilated area and spray paint both the Mr. & Mrs. Gold Calligraphy Chair Signs and two rings from the Obstacle Course Ring Set a pretty slate blue color. Allow to dry.

Next, add a light layer of white spray paint to some of the Faux Pine Branches and Faux Eucalyptus Stems to add a delicate wintry touch. Allow to dry.

Take that same slate blue spray paint color and coat a few Faux Succulent Picks. We also painted a few more Succulents in a muted green tone.

In order to attach the now slate blue painted Calligraphy Mr.and Mrs. Chair Signs, we are going to thread fishing line through the holes given on either side of each Sign. Place the Sign in the middle of the Ring to eye up the placement and then knot the fishing line on either side of the Sign and pull it taut and knot around the painted Ring so it will hang seamlessly in the center of the hoop. Repeat this step with the second sign and hoop.

Now that all of your painted greens have dried, it's time to start assembling them on the hoops. Star by Hot Gluing a Faux Pine Branch and then Hot Glue the other variety of faux greens working your way around half the hoop. Continue this process until half the area you would like decorated in greens is covered.

Start this same process working from the opposite end of where you want the greenery to start so your final two stems from either side meet in the middle.
