Kae's wreath instructions:

Wreaths can be made in any size or color you like. I used a 2 x 2.25 x 10-inch foam ring for the base. Instructions for making flowers are in the "Festive K-Lace®" package. The wire stem is then simply pushed into the foam ring. I made these flowers with the smallest 5-petal tier on top, and either one or two five-petal tiers in white under that with the next largest petals.

I stitched several leaf sizes, half of them mirrored. Leaves can be placed in all the bare spots. Most can be attached with a straight pin, but you may want support for the larger leaves. In this case, insert floral stem-wire under the bobbin thread along the spine of the leaf (as illustrated), then wrap the tab onto the wire with floral tape. The wire can be inserted about half-way up the spine of the leaf. Leaf is shown from underside in illustrations. The stem-wire can then be inserted into the foam ring.
