Holiday Harvest Hurricanes

Herb Wreath
Each herb in this wreath carries a symbolic meaning — oregano for joy of the mountain, rosemary for remembrance, bay leaves for victory, etc. In Victorian times, an herb bouquet was actually recognized as a nonverbal expression of sentiment. The best part: Your hostess can hang this up right by the stove and use the herbs for cooking. Watch as Martha demonstrates how to make this wreath in the video below.
