Place the leaves on the wreath facing the same direction. Use greening pins and a glue gun set at a low temperature to secure the leaves to the wreath. Spot-tack the leaves, do not place glue over the entire back of the leaf. Regular hot melt glue should not be used, as the higher temperature will melt the foam wreath and damage the fresh leaves. Cover the entire wreath with leaves.

Place the wreath on the easel, securing with wire. Add the floral foam holder in the 7 o'clock position. Secure the foam holder to the wreath with wire. Tuck the ends of the wire into the wreath, as they could cut the hands of someone handling the design.
