Abstract
A method of manufacturing a wreath without using fasteners consisting of forming a helical coil circle or ring and inserting sprigs of evergreen between the coils thus interlocking the sprigs in the coils
Claims4
A method of manufacturing a wreath consisting of:
- wrapping a wire around a spindle to form a helical coil having a predetermined diameter, removing said helical coil from said spindle and separating the helical coils to provide spaces between two adjacent coils, and attaching the free ends of the helical coil to create a ring;
- selecting sprigs of evergreen or other ornamental material having a shaft and side branch, inserting the shaft of at least one of said sprigs through a first and second coil of said helical coil such that said side branch protrudes between said first and second coils, and
- repeating the insertion of sprigs into the next coils sequentially around the helical coil ring until sprigs are protruding between all of the coils and sprigs interlock with the coils to prevent removal.
