🛠️ How to Make It (Step-by-Step)

1. Prep Your Seed Packets
   If you’re using printable ones, cut and optionally age them with tea stain for that vintage feel. You can also use real packets from last season!
2. Attach to the Wreath
   Use floral pins or clothespins to clip each packet onto the wreath in a balanced, overlapping pattern. Tuck in flowers as you go to add color and softness.
3. Add Finishing Touches
   Wrap the top in ribbon or lace and tie a bow. You can even clip on a small chalkboard sign or a printable label that says “Thanks for helping things grow” or “Happy Mother’s Day!”
4. Display or Gift
   Hang it on a door, lean it on a shelf, or tuck it into a larger gift basket for the mama gardener in your life.
