I purchased this to make two advent wreaths for a wedding and am very happy with the purchase. Obviously, the pine is fake, but the wreath itself is well made and sturdy.The one thing I want to point out is that you can only use real candles in this because of the points inside of the candle holders. Just a note, the points mean you need to pay special attention when placing the candles. What works best is to slightly warm the candle so that the bottom isn't brittle before placing the candles. I also suggest candles that don't drip much, since they will drip onto the wreath.I do feel they are overpriced for what they are. But they were what I needed and available in time.It obviously needs decorating which is expected but it is sort of lop sided and the spikes in the candle holders are a bit too flimsy. But for the price it isnt awful.candle spikes split 2 of my 4 candles- & as other stated they are a bit crooked good for price point- we added some other items to the greens for pop of color perfect for our advent candlesCandle prongs were not straight up, nor evenly centered in candle base, and when candles put in place, they all chipped unevenly on the bottom, causing them to break in such a way that I could not use them until I taped the bottoms back together (combo problem related to the candles?).Otherwise - I like the size - it is good for a small table/house. I like that it is unadorned - we can tailor it to our tastes.It was no more nor less than advertised. It is a very much usable quality. I was even satisfied with the price I paid ($11.40), but wish the sellers would have removed a price tag which came with the wreath saying it was $7.99. Oh well.For what I got I thought it cost too much. It was plane and crushed. I went to the craft store and got some pine cones and mistletoe for less than $5 and that helped it a lot. But I really don’t think that this was worth the $15 I paid.Good fake wreath. Comes smashed and you need to do a little work on the individual spruce leaves to fluff it out. I added some white frosted pine cones and some red ribbons to this to fill it in a little or it just looks very plain.I like how it was so easy to put together an advent wreath with this form for my Sunday school class.all set for next advent
