Deco Mesh Wreaths are such a creative and thoughtful gift to give to any family member during any Holiday, Birthday, or special occasion. In fact, they have come quite popular to make lately. I recently made this Spring Mesh Wreath that I think you will love.

Fluff your mesh in an appealing way by moving it around a bit on your frame. Add your floral clips and hang!

Tips To Start Crafting:

  • Take your time! Don’t get in any rush.
  • You may not think it is looking like you planned but if you keep twisting & wrapping the deco mesh into the pipe cleaners and working yourself around the wire wreath frame adding layers, it will start to look like a wreath in no time. I promise.
  • Try to stock up when the materials go on sale.
  • If you are making these wreaths for gifts, don’t wait the last minute. I made six wreaths one week before Christmas and was under pressure finishing them up on time.
  • Get creative with your color and materials you use.
  • Pinterest is your best friend with ideas.
  • Make plenty of table space room to work on.

With materials, I spend around ten dollars to make one wreath but watch for store sales and you might do even better than this!

        Hi Deborah, for this wreath in the post we used one roll and did not layer but I have created multiple layers with several colors with others, so you would need to buy additional mesh rolls depending on how many layers you are trying to achieve. Hope that helps!

    I’m making my first wreath ever. I want to make a Kentucky Wildcats wreath with the blue and the white. I bought me a 24 inch wreath and I only have so far one big 21 inch roll of the blue deco mesh. But my question is with it being a larger wreath how much deco mesh is needed to make a 24” wreath? I’m wanting to try doing the ruffle method but I’m scared to start my wreath because I’m afraid I don’t have enough deco mesh and I don’t want to run out of it and not have enough to go on it. I ordered that roll of mesh off of eBay and I’m scared I’ll never find any exactly like it to match if I run out. Help!

      Hi Kelly! Try not to make your ruffles too tight, and you should be fine with the two rolls. Good luck and I can’t wait to see the results.

    I am trying to make a deco mesh wreath. The booklet I bought says to measure your ribbon at 16”, but that makes the loop to big for a 16” wire frame. The book is not very clear regarding the placement of the ties for the ribbon. Thee are Christmas’s wreaths that require two colors and Deco mesh tubbing, plus regular ribbon and sprig decorations.

    Is there a measurement length for each size frame?

      Hi Marlow!
      I would try looping your ribbon about 10-12 inches around the 16″ frame. it really depends on how loose or how tight you want your loops. I would love to see your wreath when it is finished! Please feel free to tag me on Instagram @lifefamilyfun or Facebook @lifefamilyandfun – Merry Christmas! Winona

      Hi Mary, great question! These are floral clips so they just clip on the wreath. But you can use hot glue or wire them on, whichever you prefer. Thanks for stopping by. Winona

    is there anything u can spray on mesh wreath to make it last longer

      Hi Penny! Thanks for asking. I actually do not spray my wreaths with anything. I do however store them in a bag between holidays & seasons. If you are looking for something to help prevent them from fraying, try E6000 Spray Adhesive. You can purchase at https://www.michaels.com/e6000-spray-adhesive/10276020.html

      Hope that helps!
