How to Make Berry Branch: Making Berries

Sometimes I want to include berries branches in my arrangements or bouquets. In this video, I demonstrate how I make a crepe paper branch using stem wire, floral tape, and crepe paper.

This video first appeared on an Instagram Live on November 6, 2018 to demonstrate my technique to my followers, as opposed to teaching it.

Due to the nature of recording Live and unscripted, this video was a demonstration of my techniques and is not representative of the overall quality of my online courses (accessible at www.craftedtobloom.com/courses), which are pre-recorded/edited.

*20 gauge cloth covered stem wire 18" long (I buy my white covered stem wire in 36" long from Papermart.com, but this is similar to what I use. In practice, any 20 gauge stem wire (bare or cloth/paper wrapped) would do)

*24 gauge paper/cloth wrapped stem wire - Any dollar store or bakery supply store will have this.
