Preparing the Base for Your Deco Mesh Wreath
To make a good wreath, starting with a strong base is key. You should first pick out a wire wreath form. You can usually find them in sizes like 22 or 24 inches, which is just right for a normal wreath.
You’ll need about 20 pipe cleaners, cut in quarters, for the next step. Attach them evenly around your wreath form, making sure they’re twisted on tight. These will hold your deco mesh in place and keep everything stable.
Sometimes, wreath forms already have ties on them. But adding more pipe cleaners gives your wreath extra strength. This small step makes your wreath last longer and stay pretty.
Getting your base ready this way helps you a lot as you make your wreath. A well-prepared base is the secret to a beautiful wreath that shows off your creative touch.
Creating Rolled Mesh Pieces
To make your wreath, begin by cutting the deco mesh into squares. You will need 84 squares, each 6×6 inches, for a 12-inch wreath. Cut every 10 inches for 21″ mesh and then split each piece for optimal results. For 10″ mesh, simply cut every 10 inches.
The rolled mesh method adds volume and texture. Roll each mesh piece tightly to form spirals. Choose one color or mix different ones for a colorful wreath. Using 3 colors is a good start. For a full wreath, use 15 yards of mesh; 10 yards will make it less dense.
After cutting and rolling your mesh, you can start to put the wreath together. For a 12-inch frame, you’ll use 90 mesh pieces in your chosen colors:
| Mesh Color | Number of Pieces |
|---|---|
| Green/Gold | 12 |
| Brown | 6 |
| Burgundy | 18 |
| Orange/Gold | 18 |
| Ombre | 36 |
Next, use a 1.5-inch florist wire to secure each curl. Continue until you’ve covered all parts of the base. You’ll place five bunches in each of the six sections. This creates layers in the wreath, making it look full and appealing.
By cutting and rolling deco mesh, you add life and color to your wreath. It becomes a beautiful decoration that’s uniquely yours. Enjoy making those curls that give your wreath its special touch!
