I'd love to help you out, Fiora, but my daughter sold that outfit years ago. I just added that comment recently to the reviews as I had found that comment about the number of candles in a library Christmas book when I posted it. Yes, I look at Christmas books in the summer. The best part of the set is the tray with the St. Lucia buns etc. We both have the tray set.

I did a quick guess measure on a doll and I think the wreath must have been around seven inches in diameter. I've seen homemade ones of faux evergreen that fit more tightly to Kirsten's head and look far better. I would just do that with small faux berries, and straight white birthday candles.

Thanks! Yeah I thought about using birthday candles that should work well. Then, the ribbon for the bows will be easy peasy. I had guessed a 8" diam. at the most. I might make a post and see if a member who has it would respond. I'm glad there are very clear pics on this review, easy to see what the wreath looks like. I might paint the wick of the candles yellow to pretend they are lit!

I also get the "Christmas bug" showing up during summer 😄

Yes, ask here on the board. Many members certainly have it. The wick should be yellow. I always wondered why they were painted red. Kirsten's collection is really sweet. I ended up buying quite a bit of it for two other dolls.
