How many times have you stood and admired the beauty of the
flowers in your wallpaper? If you're anything like me, I'll bet
it's been plenty of times. You probably picked the paper because

the vines and the flowers into a bundle, then wire the bundle to
the wreath base. Then study the wall paper again. The next bunch
