You will need:

1 small wire wreath

Florist wire

Start by fastening the florist wire to the wreath.

Use two and two candies and fasten them to the wreath by twining the wire around them.

Let the next ones overlap the old ones.

Work yourself all the way around.

Fasten the last ones by twining the wire a few extra turns around the wreath.
