Step 1: Gather materials
We used an old wire tomato cage, jute, gardening wire, ribbon, pruners, wire cutters, gourds, snowberries, small ears of field corn, cranberries, pine boughs and millet stalks.
-
Step 2: Cut wire
Snip off the top layer of the tomato cage, leaving the spokes attached.
-
Step 3: Flatten wire
Flatten all of the spokes so they radiate out from the circle.
-
Step 4: Wrap wire
Wrap the wire with jute to stabilize it and to give it a finished look.
-
Step 5: Add corn and pumpkins
Slide small ears of corn as well as pumpkins or gourds onto the wire spokes, creating a pattern.
-
Step 6: Add berries
Slide on cranberries or other fruits above the gourds to hide the wires.
-
Step 7: Finish with a flourish
Tie together millet, small pine boughs and snowberries with gardening wire. Add the flourish to the wreath with an autumn-hue ribbon.
