A wreath is an arrangement of flowers, leaves, twigs, fruits and natural elements woven together to form a ring for use as a symbol of protection, decoration, for achievement or as a memorial.
Wreaths have been used in festivals and ceremonies associated with fertility and the arrival and passing of the seasons by Pagan people for over two thousand years.
A wreath can be used as a headdress, wheel of life or circle denoting protection and everlasting life.
