Tips For Arranging Funeral Flower Wreaths

Funeral wreaths are popular choices of decorative features at a visitation and formal service. There are a number of designs, shades, and flower choices available including synthetic or fresh. Taking the time to build your own wreath range can save a great deal on expenses and offers a personalized alternative.

A wreath is a traditional feature within the home because it serves to honor the memory of the person who has passed away. It can be created from many different colors and materials that best match or represent the personality of the deceased. Various decorative features should be selected for the ceremony and may fit with a specific theme.

For flowers that do not include the desired color or tone, it can be dyed or sprayed to represent the desired style. The items that need to be purchased for decorative purposes include a foam wreath, flower pins, fresh or synthetic flowers, a glue gun, wiring, and ribbon. The ribbon will need to include a broader width allowing for a loop around the ring and over the sides.

Flowers should be pinned to the wreath surface for security. The flower wiring should be used to pin the different decorative features including pine cones and natural elements. The ring should be filled with the different items and may be glued or pinned with the soft wires.

The stems of both fresh and synthetic flowers should be pushed through the foam and secured. Modern options include the placement of small photographs and accessories on the wreath that represent the life of the individual who has departed. Ribbon can be applied for additional security and to fill any holes.

There is the choice of purchasing ready made funeral wreaths for the ceremony. It is a good idea to determine whether the wreath range can be personalized to meet individual needs and interests. The costs should be considered to ensure that a valuable and affordable decision is made to honor the memory of a loved one or close friend.
