5) Thread two or three chilli peppers on to a length of stub wire and push them along to the centre of the wire (see illustration). Position on the wreath, tucking the wire underneath the rosemary/eucalyptus where possible. To secure, bend each end of the wire to the back of the wreath and twist together until the peppers are held firmly in place. Repeat to make and attach another four groups of peppers.

6) Use the same method to attach the baby carrots and garlic bulbs. You may find it easier to use a bodkin to pierce a hole first and then thread with wire and attach.  

7) Hang the wreath in your chosen position.
