Create your own Christmas group

It is easy to make a Christmas group, and a homemade essay is also a nice and popular hostess gift in connection with the Christmas festivities. Here we give you inspiration on how to do it - step by step.

How to make a simple Christmas group

You need

Start by finding something you can plant in. It can be a beautiful bowl or an old pot. You can also plant a solitary Christmas group in a coffee cup that you have found, for example, in a thrift store. Next, you need soil, plants according to the season, green moss to cover the soil with, and finally decorations. You can use pine cones, Christmas balls, cinnamon sticks and other decorative decorations.

Here's how to get started

Start by placing a few centimeters of soil at the bottom of the pot as a basis for the plants. This means that the plants stand firmly on the bottom.

Place the plants

Place your plants. In this Christmas group, we have chosen to use poinsettia, ivy, kalanchoe (fire top), chives and fir. Feel free to choose plants with different shapes. One that is tall, one that is lower and one plant that is more hanging. Find out where the Christmas group should stand, and in which direction it should face, then it will be easier to decide how to place the plants. Think about whether there should be a front and back page, or whether it should stand in the middle of a table and be seen from all directions.

 

Plant and cover with moss

When you are satisfied with the placement of the plants, fill in with soil so that the roots are covered and the plants stand steady. Then cover with green moss. Be careful to cover everywhere with green moss, then the Christmas group will be nicer to look at.

Last touch

Finish by attaching Christmas baubles or other decorations to give the final touch. Be creative with the decorations! Try to place them so that there is balance in the Christmas group and not too messy.

 

Completed Christmas group

Now the Christmas group is ready! Create a Christmas atmosphere at home, or take it as a personal hostess gift to a mulled party.
