Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year! Ahead of the festive season (it’s only mid year now), we have compiled a bunch of our DIY videos that we have filmed for our students and past clients for some inspiration for your home decoration.
Not only do we love the look of these Christmas arrangements, the fresh scent of evergreens, pine leaves and cinnamon sticks (and other ornaments) is such a welcoming touch. Here are some ideas to style your homes with the same materials in multiple ways for the festive feeling.
1. Decorate your table with a Fresh Garland
A quick and simple idea as a table centrepiece to host your feasting and parties
Using a string to guide you, layer on pin par (conifer) eucalyptus leaves, berries and nuts
Bunch them together with florist wire
Keep adding bunches until your desired length
End the Garland by reversing the direction of the last bunch
Glue on orange slices and pine cones, add a few candles to set the mood for the occasion.

2. Accessorise a plain faux or fresh Christmas wreath
For a longer lasting decoration or something you can reuse even the next few year, get a faux Christmas wreath from a craft or home decoration store like Daiso, Mason’s, Bed and Bath Table etc. and spruce it up with your own ornaments!
Here are 3 ways on attaching your Christmas ornaments onto a faux or fresh wreath using floral wires! Video produced for Roger Dubuis Singapore
1.Separate wires and twist around the back of wreath
2. Join wires and insert directly into the wreath base
3. Separate wires and twist around the leaves
Tie a ribbon to hang the wreath
2. Wire your own Christmas Wreaths
The best part about making Christmas wreaths is the scent of the fresh foliage, get hands-on to create the green base from scratch by wiring various plant material on, adding on the seasonal ornaments and berries or any other fruits.
You can also purchase a Wreath DIY Kit to create one at home or attend our Wreath Making Workshop in the Studio!
3. Make a mini table top Christmas Tree
Take it a step further to build a table top Fresh Nobilis Pine Mini Tree! This idea is perfect for those living in smaller apartments or do want to save the hassle of having to clean up the leaves of a live Conifer tree.
You can attend a Mini Tree Workshop in the Studio if you wish to create one too!
