When I saw the curly deco mesh wreaths on the Internet recently, I knew I wanted to find out how to copy them. They have a fun and festive look to them with the deco mesh being cut in short pieces then rolled into spirals. My local craft stores don't have a good selection of deco mesh but I heard of a store about a thirty minute drive away that had more to choose from. I drove over to check it out. The store did have about forty colors of deco mesh and also lots of wreaths made up for sale. I took a sneak peek at the backs of the curly deco mesh ones to figure out how they were constructed. My shopping cart was full of deco mesh rolls at checkout. The store did have the official deco mesh "work wreaths" for sale but I found when I made some deco mesh wreaths a few months ago that you really don't have to have them. A plain (and less expensive) wire wreath from the floral section at the craft stores works just fine. This one is a 16" wreath form and was $4 at Hobby Lobby. Other supplies for the wreath were four rolls of deco mesh. At the store I purchased these from, the plain colors were $6 a roll and the ones with multicolors or metallic threads were $12 a roll. On most deco mesh rolls the mesh is 21" wide and 10 yards long. An inexpensive pre-made little scarecrow came home with me too as a wreath embellishment. To make the spirals, use the entire width of the mesh and cut it in 9" to 12" lengths (it doesn't have to be exact). Tightly roll the piece of mesh in the center and keep it pinched. The finished edges of the mesh will be on the ends of the tube. Roll 4-5 mesh pieces this same way. Try to keep them pinched in the middle and collect the centers together. Use a pipe cleaner (I think they are called chenille stems these days) to secure the centers together. Twist it as tightly as possible to keep the centers rolled and secured together. Here is what the spiral set will look like held together with the pipe cleaner: Place the spiral set on top of the wire wreath (the rounded side). Secure the spiral set onto one of the form's wires with the pipe cleaner and twist it on tightly. Take the left over pipe cleaner "legs" that are now on the backside of the wreath form and twist them along other wires on the form. What you are trying to do with this step is to keep the spiral set from moving along the wreath wires. Here's how the wreath looks with the first few sets of mesh attached: The choice of colors is up to you. I chose four fall colors but you can vary that for the season or occasion you want. Your wreath might have more or less than four colors. To look nice and full, it took about three mesh sets for each section (where a vertical wire crosses over the horizontal curved wire) of the wreath. Here's the wreath about half way around: At this point, I realized the wreath was going to be bigger than I had thought it would be. Here's the completed wreath from the backside: Looks kind of like of like a sassy tutu! Here's how my "no rhyme or reason" zig zag pipe cleaner attachment technique looked: From the back, push the spirals in the middle towards the front of the wreath to add fullness. Another tip: to help the spirals regain their tightness, roll the spiral around your finger, then release. Here's the wreath on a 32" wide door: Yes, it is large but it is easy to see from the street and makes a big impact. Remember my original scarecrow wreath embellishment? I thought maybe he looked too small on that big wreath. I got a bigger scarecrow to try since he might be more proportional to the 120 spirals of Fall fun. However, he did cover up more of the spirals...which one do you like best? The total cost for this wreath was $35. If you want at little less Fall fun with a spiral deco mesh wreath, try this exact same technique on a 12" wire wreath form... it will still be impressive but a little bit smaller than this one. Other ways to make door decor with the deco mesh is to go around the edge of a circle or heart wreath form or to make a pumpkin, Santa belly, or Valentine going across a wreath form. Also you can string the mesh along a wire to make a garland.
