I began making this project last year and thought I could make a wreath out of this idea. Unfortunately, it never occurred to me how long it would take and how many of the punched flowers I would need. The wreath is still sitting where I left it, with about ten flowers in it and no hope for completion. You'll need about 100 straight pins with a decorated head. I chose a box with red pearl tips. I used a 3" Styrofoam ball and almost 100 punched flowers out of cardstock. I used two plain straight pins to adhere a 6" piece of ribbon the I tied a loop into and then pinned into the ball as the hanger for the ornament. I started on the line that marks the equator of the ball and began by using a foam mat and pushing the pin into the flower and then pushing the pin into the ball. I didn't push the flower all the way onto the pin until it was in the ball and that was a big time saver. I put the flowers close enough together that the petals overlapped each other a little bit. It's easier to work around the ball, but I chose to do small portions at a time and ran into some problems with having to move existing flowers. If you work around the ball in rows, you shouldn't have any problems. If you do, just move a couple flowers until they cover the ball.
