You Will Need:
Large wood twig frame (or flat wooden wreath)
25-30 Roses
Hot glue gun
Black floral spray
Glitter (optional)
Ribbon bow (optional)

Directions:
01. Remove the roses from the stems.

02. Hot glue the roses to the frame (twig or flat).

03. Spray the roses with the black floral spray (in a well ventilated area).

My notes: You can completely cover the roses or do lighter coats to allow the red to show through.
An additional idea is to completely cover the roses with a different color floral spray like dark purple (before spraying them black). This will allow the purple to show through instead of the red.

You can also add some dimension by sprinkling purple, dark blue, red/dark red or black fine glitter on the wreath while the paint is still drying. I omitted the bow.
