Materials and Tools:
4' silk ivy strand
One spool paddle wire
Wright'sB. or OffrayB. ribbon, 2 to 2 1/2" wide
Assorted silk flowers with stems, in a variety of colors
One bunch dried white baby's breath
Glue gun with glue sticks
Use plain ivy or ivy with grape clusters.
Use several different colors of ribbon, depending on the color scheme and the overall design of the swag.
Once you have the ivy base, select various shades of silk flowers, or purchase fresh flowers to wire into the swag that day.
For a dressier look, weave a sheer green 7/8" ribbon through the ivy strand.
