Okay, well here's how I did it:

Take one pair of extremely expensive panty hose that you can no longer fit into, and it's doubtful you ever will.

Fill both legs with potting soil.

Tie the top part (that used to fit around your hips) in a knot. Apply artistically to a wire form.

Wire it on by winding tie wire around.

Lay the wreath flat.

Poke holes in it and thread your choice of Sedum, Sempervivum and any other succulents that might need a haircut into the wreath.

Set it on 'ignore' for a week or two.

Water.

Enjoy.
