Caring for your wreath
With proper care, your wreath can be treasured for years and years. Since my wreaths are woven from natural materials, they are best displayed indoors away from direct light and heat or outdoors in a protected nook sheltered from sunlight, wind and rain. Wreaths can be gently dusted with a blow dryer set on low.
My wreaths are crafted from Ozark native grasses, wayside weeds, everlasting flowers, tree bark, lichens, seeds, cones and, occasionally, feathers. Coloration, plant material, and actual size may vary slightly. My wild wreaths contain only natural materials.
Wreaths have been used throughout history to
•bless the home
•tend the sick and restore the spirit
•invoke powers of protection
•praise bards and heroes
•sanctify nuptials
•honor ancestors and commemorate the dead
•celebrate the turning of the seasons
The tradition is so ancient it is difficult to trace the actual beginnings of wreathing.
The faded remnants of wreaths dated to 2500 BC have been found in Egyptian Pharaoh's burial pyramid.
“All that lives is round...
...the stem of a plant, a tree, the body of a person, the sun, the moon. The closed circle is a symbol of life, of time, of the earth” Sacajawea
