AG DAY: 8. Making my wreath

My wreath is about Kiwi Summer.  It is about summer time, the beach, christmas, Pohutukawa trees, shells and berries. 


I cut my plants that I grew. One was called frosted curls. It's a beach grass and it looks like my hair! The other one is a dwarf Pohutukawa. 


We soaked the oasis in water and put it around the wreath. 


I put the flowers and plants where I wanted them to go. Nana bought me some real Pohutukawa flowers from her garden. I got some red Clivia berries from our garden because they look like christmas berries. 


I finisihed the flowers on my wreath and after dinner I will glue shells and fishing line and sea weed on. 


I think my wreath is awesome. I hope everyone likes it.

AG DAY 7: Making the base of my wreath

I sorted my things out from the beach. I left them to dry because some were still wet. 


Then I laid out my things in the shape of the wreath. My Dad made the wood shape for my wreath. 


My Dad screwed my driftwood on to the wood wreath. I helped him by holding it. I told him where to put the holes and he thought that was a good idea. 


I had to colour in some of the screws because the screws weren't the same colours as the wreath. I thought it was a good idea to do that. 


This is what my wreath looks like now! I am still going though and on Wednesday I am going to put my flowers and shells on.

AG DAY: 6. Watering my garden


Each day I water my plants. But not if its raining. If the plants get too much water they will die. 

My plants are growing good. My favourite is "Frosted Curls".
