Instructions

  • Prepare the Mesh:
  • Cut 10 pieces of each deco mesh at 25 inches long.
  • Curl the ends slightly to prevent fraying.
  • Accordion-fold the mesh into 3/4 to 1-inch gathers.
  • Preload the Board:
  • Insert zip ties into alternating holes (inside and outside rows) on the UITC board.
  • Keep zip ties open until you place the mesh.
  • Attach the Mesh:
  • Place each gathered mesh piece into the zip ties, alternating colors.
  • Tighten the zip ties and trim the excess.
  • Add Ribbon Tails:
  • Cut ribbons to 24 inches.
  • Form 7-inch tails with a 10-inch loop.
  • Attach ribbons to the outer rows over the striped mesh using pipe cleaners.
  • Attach the Sign:
  • Use pipe cleaners and secure through the provided holes.
  • Adjust positioning to balance the design.
  • Make the Bow:
  • Use a bow maker or hand-tie a bow with multiple layers.
  • Secure with a zip tie and attach with pipe cleaners.
  • Insert Greenery & Florals:
  • Cut floral stems into smaller sections.
  • Use hot glue to secure stems around the wreath, evenly distributing colors and textures.
  • Place smaller flowers around the bow and sign for balance.
  • Final Touches:
  • Fluff the ribbons and bow.
  • Ensure florals and greenery are evenly spread.
  • Check for any gaps and add extra stems or filler.
  • Add a Hanger:
  • Create a loop with a pipe cleaner or jute rope in the designated holes for hanging.
  • Display & Enjoy!
  • Hang the wreath and take a step back to admire your work.
