Twig wreaths - material?

Hi! I'm new here. Sorry if this question has been asked before...

I would like to make a rather large twig wreath to hang outside. I don't want to
use a frame, just twigs that I would tie up together and force them into a round
shape (that would be the frame, then I'd add more twigs to it to make it fuller).
What type of twig do you recommend I use for this project? I have many maple, fir,
beech, oak and birch trees all over my property and the ground is cover with
twigs.

Thank you,

Sundance
