Spool wire (florist wire) is well fitted for jobs like making wreaths, bows, or other decorations. Its' softness allows it to easily be wrapped or twisted and to stay put when pulled tightly. It has many uses when preparing Christmas decorations.
Bright wire is good for most uses and cost about 10% less, but will rust easier than green wire. Green wire will not show as easily on greenery projects. Dark wire is the most economical and is of the same strength and quality as the bright but was darkened in the annealing process.
Wire size is determined by several factors:
1. The coarseness of the
greens
2. The strength of the wreath maker
3. Whether the work is
being done by hand or machine
4. Varying methods of production
General rules to follow
1.#26 - A very fine wire used only with care
for those finer wrapping tasks.
2. #24 - To be used by not overly
strong workers, lighter greens, use on the Kelco 102 Wreath machine or
KMG1 Garland machine, making bows or wiring pine cones.
3.#23 - For
use by medium strength workers, coarse greens and on K102 wreath machine.
4.
#22 - For use by very strong workers, coarse greens or boughs, very
large bows and generally heavy duty work (it can also be used with
lighter greens requiring less wraps, therefore using less wire and
labor).
