If you're looking for a different kind of Christmas wreath, this pretty, floral, bow-shaped arrangement is the perfect D.I.Y. project for you. Craft enthusiast Brooke Styles (@brookestyless) is sharing her take on a holiday classic.
Safety tip: Always wear the appropriate safety equipment (safety glasses, gloves, ear muffs and a mask, for example) and always follow the instructions for the product or equipment.
Roll out the wire netting, measure a length of one metre and cut. Next, cut this piece of netting in half lengthways so that you have two pieces.
Roll your two pieces of netting lengthways. Bend one end of each piece into a circle so that it forms the shape of the number nine. Using garden zip ties, secure your number nine shape by connecting the netting together where it touches to form the number nine.
Connect your two number nines together so that they form the shape of a bow. (Your number nines should be backwards.) Secure them together using a garden zip tie.
Now it’s time to get creative! Decorate your bow however you’d like. Cut up artificial flowers and leaves to your desired length and stick them onto the netting using glue.
Once you’re happy with your decorations, create another bow using the jute webbing. Attach this to your two number nines with another garden zip tie. Hang your Christmas bow on your door or wall using adhesive hooks.

Asbestos, lead-based paints and copper chromium arsenic (CCA) treated timber are health hazards you need to look out for when renovating older homes. These substances can easily be disturbed when renovating and exposure to them can cause a range of life-threatening diseases and conditions including cancer. For information on the dangers of asbestos, lead-based paint and CCA treated timber and tips for dealing with these materials contact your local council's Environmental Health Officer or visit our Health & Safety page.
When following our advice in our D.I.Y. videos, make sure you use all equipment, including PPE, safely by following the manufacturer’s instructions. Check that the equipment is suitable for the task and that PPE fits properly. If you are unsure, hire an expert to do the job or talk to a Bunnings Team Member.
