Expert Tips & FAQs
This conversation wreath is not edible.
If you are worried about the elements, spray the finished wreath with an acrylic sealer. Aleene's Clear Matte Acrylic Sealer is a great choice. This will also help prevent bugs from being drawn to it.
If spraying the wreath with a sealer, be sure to hold the nozzle at least two feet from the wreath and spray in thin coats.
I use extra long glue sticks so I don't have to refill too often I ended up going through 5 sticks. I also use a stand up hot glue gun. You could use regular craft glue but it will take a lot longer to dry. You will also need to be prepared to continuously push candy hearts back into place as they slide around. I suggest just using a glue gun instead.
