Modern décor that is minimalistic in nature is very on trend right now so we extended that trend to our Spring Floral Bridal Shower to create a lovely spring wreath. We added delicate light pink ribbon and pretty flowers to the simple metal wreath frame, which became part of the design itself. We absolutely adore how it looked hanging over our cocktail table!

Take your metal wreath frame to a well-ventilated area and spray paint it metallic gold. Set aside to dry.

Once the wreath frame has dried, cut 15 long lengths of light pink satin ribbon. You'll need to ensure the ribbon is twice as long as you want it to be as you will be folding it in half to loop it onto the wreath. To add the ribbon to the wreath, double the ribbon over onto itself, then slip the two ends behind a single rung of the wreath and then pull the ends over the front of the rung and through the looped end of the ribbon. Pull tight to knot the ribbon onto the wreath. I added five ribbon knots to each of the three lower rungs of the wreath frame in a staggered stair step pattern so the ribbon did not overlap.

Remove two white peonies and one pink peony from the peony floral mats and arrange them on the front of the wreath frame, slightly overlapping the ribbon with the first peony. Using hot glue, attach a 2" square of white felt to the back side of the wreath form, then apply a bit more hot glue to secure the peonies to the wreath, directly on top of the felt pieces. Attach a sprig of silver dollar eucalyptus to both the first and last flower using hot glue.

Starting from the left side of the wreath, trim the ribbon on an angle working upward to the right so that the ribbon hangs longer on the left and is shorter on the right side under the bulk of the flowers. I found it easier to trim the ribbon as the wreath was hanging on the wall.
