The basic formula we used for a 15"-24" inch wreath is four styles of ribbons, and cutting seven 11"-12" strips of each style of ribbon. Then incorporating one type of spray (you may need more than one spray depending on what you pick, for instance we used two each of the glitter ball spray and the holly spray but we needed three of the heart spray) and one larger focal point decoration. As we suggested in the videos, a chalkboard is a great focal point decoration for this project because all you need to do to switch it up each season is change the message on the sign. This will also allow you to hot glue the piece into the wreath, so it is one less thing to take in and out every time you change the season. Using this formula you can create thousands of different wreaths.
When each holiday rolls around again and you would like to freshen up your ribbons, instead of buying 4 whole new rolls next Christmas, you can always just keep two styles and only introduce two new ones, if you really want to make your dollar go the extra mile. This is also a great place to use scraps from other projects, since you only need about 2.5 Yards of each style of ribbon max.
