Seasonal Advice for December

Cranberry Wreath

Cranberry Wreath

D
ECORATE YOUR front door with a cranberry wreath this holiday season. Use round toothpicks and needle-nose pliers to attach even rows of fresh cranberries (about six 12-ounce bags) to a 14-inch green styrofoam wreath form. Starting on the inside edge using toothpicks broken in half, place the berries close together so the form does not show. Next cover the outer edge of the form. Finally, attach a row on whole toothpicks around the center, reducing the height of the toothpicks as the rows progress toward each edge to create a graduated, mounded effect. Continue to attach the berries around the face. Attach an all-weather bow and hang your wreath with heavy-duty wire.
