Ficus Leaves
Ficus Leaves have always been a key component in my wreath designs. They are such an important step in creating my “Wild & Woodsy” designs!
These greens may seem ordinary to the untrained eye, but I promise you that they will make a huge difference in every wreaths!
The secret – well, that”s in how you use them!
With the long leaf stem of a ficus branch, you can create a large and airy look for your wreath by carefully placing these stems to radiate from your wreath!
Often I use around 3 different types of greenery in my wreaths, but the ficus is the most important. It provides a depth and lushness to your style! Yes… wreaths can look lush!
As you learn to use ficus leaves and greenery in your wreaths, it is so important for you to understand that you don’t want all the stems to come our from the wreath at the exact same distance all around. Some should be longer, and some should be shorter. Some should curl forward, and some should curl backward.
Where Can I Purchase These Ficus Leaves?
Remember: Be sure to read the FREE CHAPTER on Greenery to learn how to cut your ficus stems and properly place them in your wreaths! Just like building a firm foundation on a house, you want to check each stem as you place them and make sure they are secure before moving on.
Enjoy reading this chapter and find me on FaceBook to talk about what you learned! I’d love to hear from you!
