Designer Maya Smirnova shared with usan interesting master class on making a festive Christmas wreath. The whole process takes no more than half an hour The crazy pace of city life does not always allow us to find time to properly prepare for the holidays. Therefore, New Year's interior decoration is often limited to decorating the Christmas tree. For our busiest readers who dream of an original festive decor, but do not have enough time to create it, we offer a special express master class on making a Christmas wreath from pine branches. Today's master class was shared with us by a talented designer from Khabarovsk, Maya Smirnova. Maya Smirnova, designer Head and designer of the interior design studio Studio May in Khabarovsk. Graduated from an elite design school in the courses "Interior Design" and "Landscape Design", the British Higher School of Design and the International School of Design Rhodec in the UK (with honors). Prefers loft-style interiors and discreet, elegant classics. So, to make a festive New Year's wreath we will need:
- Artificial twigs spruce on a wire frame;
- Thick wire with a diameter of 2-3 mm for the base of the wreath;
- Thin green garden wire or sewing thread for fasteners;
- Cones;
- Brushes of berries;
- Braid for hanging a wreath at the door;
- Carnations and a hammer.
We twist the thick one into a ring with a diameter of 20 cmwire (in this case, such wire was found at the object that the designer is making, but in principle it can be bought at a construction market). We disassemble the artificial spruce branch into small segments (paws). We begin to weave them into the ring, additionally strengthening its structure.
Branch by branch we weave in the tree brancheswreath. We arrange the segments in one direction, we straighten them out beautifully during the work. For reliability, we tie the branches to the ring with a camouflage thread or thin wire.
We decorate the wreath with pine cones. We attach them using a hot glue gun or wire.

We tie the wreath with a ribbon of a matching color.and hang it on the door. Advice from designer Maya Smirnova: - In order not to spoil the door leaf, carefully nail a nail for the tape into the upper end of the wooden door. Choose a thin tape so that the door closes freely. Happy New Year, friends!
