I have a wreath that I love and didn't realize it was still getting a lot of sun on my covered porch. It Is now fragile. I've brought it in but wonder if there's a way to make it so the leaves don't come off so easy. Any ideas? tia

Some kind of spray glue?  Hair spray?

Get a fresh bottle of Gorilla Glue....one that has a brush or get a small makeup brush with a point to reattach fallen leaves and strengthen the leaves still hanging on.

 

A few years ago we had an artificial tree that stays on the lanai in a far back corner year round, even when we are back home.  I spent an afternoon with a roll of green florist tape to attach small leafy branches I bought to bare spots.

 

It seems to be still working....

You can also get a leaf garland at Michaels or Hobby Lobby and replace some or most of the leaves if you need to. You can cut each one off to replace, or wrap the garland around the wreath in small pieces of it works that way.
