Equipment

  • Scissors
  • Wire Cutters

Materials

  • 1 14” pancake frame
  • 1 roll Poly/Jute/Metallic Mesh-RY8032AY
  • 12 Baby multi mix 60919- FH812568
  • 2 Glitter cluster berry spike - MTX68969-Pink
  • 2 Glitter round leaf spray - XS241415

  • 1 12” metal sign used one from a previous WSB

Instructions

  • Prepare the Wreath Frame:
  • Take the 14-inch pancake frame.
  • Attach pipe cleaners by twisting them through the center and outer holes of the frame. You’ll need 6 inside and 6 outside pipe cleaners (12 total).
  • Cut the Mesh:
  • Cut your mesh into 17-inch pieces. You’ll need 12 pieces in total.
  • If the mesh has a line marking the center, use it as a guide to scrunch. If not, fold and pinch down the middle.
  • Attach the Mesh:
  • Start with the outer row of pipe cleaners. Place the gathered center of a mesh piece into the pipe cleaner, twist it tight, and spread the mesh to create a "petal" effect.
  • Repeat for all 6 outer pipe cleaners.
  • Move to the inner row and repeat the same process, overlapping slightly to cover the "guts" of the outer row.
  • Prepare the Floral Bundles:
  • Take your spring mix (60919) and cut stems into smaller sections. Each stem should have a mix of greenery and flowers.
  • Add berries to the bundle for extra dimension.
  • Zip tie each bundle together for security.
  • Attach Floral Bundles to the Frame:
  • Secure each floral bundle to the frame using the pipe cleaners already attached to the mesh.
  • Spread out the greenery and flowers for even coverage.
  • Attach the Sign:
  • Glue cable mounts to the back of your spring sign using super glue or E6000. Allow it to dry.
  • Thread pipe cleaners through the cable mounts and attach the sign to the center of the wreath. Twist tightly and trim excess pipe cleaner.
  • Add a Hanger:
  • Use a pipe cleaner to create a loop at the top of the frame for hanging.
  • Final Touches:
  • Fluff up the greenery, mesh, and floral bundles to ensure even coverage.
  • Check for any visible pipe cleaners or gaps and adjust as needed.

Notes

Tips for Success:
  • Work in assembly-line style: prep all materials first, then assemble.
  • If your mesh doesn’t have a center line, use your fingers to keep the folds even.
  • Use a wreath box or bowl to keep your wreath elevated while working to avoid flattening your design.
Enjoy your beautiful spring wreath! 🌸 Perfect for welcoming guests or gifting to loved ones.
