This is how it is done

Step 1

Water floral foam tile and pinch between two branches.

Step 2

Work more branches in parallel side by side with a little distance and with the help of binding wire to form a long mat, adding the branches with the pinched plug foam in the middle. Then weave smaller magnolia and bog birch branches into the mat between the thicker branches. Place the mat over the coffin so that the plug-in foam area is positioned at the top and tuck in the flowers.
