Eucalyptus Hanging Hoops

My wedding took place a magical forest with decorations tucked away throughout small forest spaces. Check out my Pinterest board for more inspiration for an ‘Enchanted Forest’ party vibe.

Supplies

  • Metal hoops
  • Artificial or fresh silver dollar eucalyptus
  • Floral wire and snips
  • Twine for hanging
  • Fresh floral stems (optional)

Instructions

  1. Wrap floral wire at the base of 1 strand of eucalyptus two or three times. Continue adding wire every 1-2 feet adding a new strand of eucalyptus to extend the branches along the ring to cover up two-thirds the circle.
  2. Add in any focal points (e.g., a short pampas grass) and secure with more floral wire.
  3. Add more eucalyptus or golden decorative strands to add texture and cover any visible stems.
  4. Secure floral arrangements on front of ring with twine.
  5. Hang from branch.
