I volunteered to make a wreath for a friend whose son was killed in Iraq on May 25, 2006 and is buried in the National Cemetery near our house (his parents live 2500 miles away now). So glad I found this channel! I hadn’t seen one of these made but it will work so well for his headstone. Thanks so much!
I’m so happy I came across your tutorial. I’ve made some of these, but never with greenery like yours. Gorgeous! I’m ready for red , white, and blue theme for Dad and brother in law. Thank you ❤️
You have a wonderful presentation of your beautiful cemetery saddle. Each step you comment on shared with us tells the story of your work. Great job !!! It is stunning. Thanks for sharing!!
Watched Replay, thank you for sharing...glad your able to decorate your in laws gravesides..I always make one for my Mom 3 seasons..Mothers day I make special...this is really pretty..❤
Your design is beautiful, thank you for your tutorials, I'm happy you did the ribbon, I like it without the ribbon, looking forward to seeing your next video, thank you again
Very nice. Wish i had seen this sooner. I made my very first floral saddle for my father's headstone last week. I did not know to use any glue, so i hope my florals and greenery hold up to the wind. I will save this video and re-watch before making a fall design. TYFS
I really like it and I think it was pretty without the ribbon. I appreciate the tutorial. I think I am going to put my own twist on it…due to trying to stay within my family’s budget. I have a Deodra tree that drops pinecones that look like wooden roses. I also collect other types of pinecones and sometimes I paint them, sometimes I just varnish them. My husband wants to get rid of a fake Christmas tree so I will use some of that for filler. Not sure what else I’ll use…have to look around and upcycle something and see how it turns out. May not look as pretty as yours but you gave me some inspiration to try something different. TYFS!❤😊
April 20, 2024 Good morning from Schulenburg, Texas 😊 that headstone saddle turned out beautiful I love the colors you used and I loved how you added the ribbon that arrangement looked beautiful with or without the ribbon ❤ oh you can use a hairdryer on low to fluff those blue flowers Southern freshen up and they don't look wrinkled. Where did you buy your pick machine and what kind of pliers where you using to cut your stems are those you were using please?
Gorgeous. You don't even need the ribbon. I have a question. Our cemetery doesn't allow standing headstones, so how would you make this accomadate an in ground headstone? I know you still need the Styrofoam, but wouldn't it also require some kind of a base? Thanks for sharing ❤
Those wire is meant for a flat headstone right? So how would I attach it if the headstone is upright? I wish I could send you s Pic of the headstones I'm making these for
I had a custom headstone made for my Son. He rode bulls, broke and showed horses as well as being a Master Cattleman. It was my final gift to him. I cried during the entire process. On the back I had listed his Son, my youngest Son as his brother and me as his Mama. I will e buried next to him. My health is very bad and I want my Son to lay me to rest with no fanfare. Instead I want people to be happy that I will finally know what happened to my child. No one can tell me what happened. It will drive you mad if you let it.

So wonderful and heartfelt for you to do this❤
Please tell your friend we thank them for their son's service and sacrifice for our country. They have our condolences.
Very well illustrated and explained. I make these for my mother’s grave, but now with this tutorial they will be much prettier going forward.
I’m so happy I came across your tutorial. I’ve made some of these, but never with greenery like yours.

I need a pick machine also. What a great idea.
Gorgeous! I make arrangements for several family members throughout the year. I've never seen a saddle wreath.
That’s beautiful
So pretty. You make it look so easy. 💐
Just beautiful, thx you..
Thank you so much for this video! You are certainly amazing, and explain so well! Be blessed, and happy!
Beautiful arrangement. Thanks for sharing.
How much would this wreath cost please?
Beautiful ❤️
Very beautiful and informative ❤

There are plastic vases that have a pick on the bottom of them (like solar lights have)
Is there a spray we can use to help preserve them just a little longer in the elements?
Scotchguard
Clear acrylic sealer (clear spray paint)
I use Scotch Guard UV and water repellent
Pretty
Please tell me about the pick machine. Where did you get it? Thank you. Barbara H Colorado
What are you dipping each leaf in ? Before you put it in the oasis
How much for this arrangement
Thank you so much for this tutorial! Going to make one for my in-laws. What hot glue pot/skillet do you recommend? I've never used one.
How much would you charge for that?
You should have one gigantic bow instead of the ribbons. It was gorgeous before
How much do you typically charge for something this size?
I have to ask what do you charge?
