Imagine welcoming guests with a tall wicker planter topped with evergreens, a sparkling silver globe, and a red plaid ribbon that feels like it came straight out of a Christmas card.
The wicker texture grounds the arrangement, while the bow and star accent whisper holiday warmth. It’s a piece that greets everyone with a smile.
Materials Needed
- 1 tall wicker planter (around 24-30” height)
- 1 large decorative silver or chrome sphere (8-10” diameter)
- Fresh or faux evergreen branches (10-15 stems)
- 3-4 pinecones
- 6-8 small red/gold ornaments
- 1 large red plaid ribbon with wire edges (2.5” wide, about 4 ft long)
- 1 woven star ornament (approx. 10-12”)
- Floral foam or filler
Step-by-step Guide
Step 1: Place floral foam or filler inside the wicker planter to stabilize your arrangement.
Step 2: Insert the evergreen branches evenly around the top, letting them drape slightly over the edges for a lush base.
Step 3: Position the silver sphere in the center. Then nestle it securely so it sits above the greenery but doesn’t wobble.
Step 4: Decorate around the base with pinecones and ornaments, tucking them into the greenery for a layered look.
Step 5: Tie a big bow with the plaid ribbon and secure it at the front, allowing the tails to cascade down.
Step 6: Attach the woven star ornament to the planter’s front for an extra festive touch.
Note:
For evening sparkle, tuck a small battery-operated LED light string into the greenery to illuminate the silver globe and ornaments.
