Customs & tradition
Form small tufts from the coniferous greenery. Place these on the straw strip and wrap the ends of the twigs twice tightly with the wire.
Take another needle green, form another tuft and wrap it around the straw hoop with wire.
Repeat the whole process until the wreath is closed. You should wrap the straw strip as evenly as possible with the needle greenery.
When the wreath is completely closed, cut the wire and twist it with the starting piece.
It is then best to place the wreath on the floor. From above you can best see where the Advent wreath is perhaps not quite so even. You can trim the wreath a little more, cut off protruding branches with the pruning shears or add coniferous greenery where there are small holes.
