I love the concept of this wreath and could not wait to receive it, however, once it arrived, I was disappointed by how frail it is. The twig material is very brittle and many pieces had broken off in transport. Just tying a wire around it to hang it, even though I was very, very careful in doing so,  caused some of the tips to break off. I am doctoring it up, but I wish I had just built it myself and used stronger materials.
