Deco Mesh Fall Wreath

2 Materials
Deco mesh is a plastic ribbon that resembles fabric. I`s flexible and very easy to use for doing bows, garlands, and wreaths. I decided to do my own, reusing some existing material that I had from previous year. I had an 18 inches straw wreath, and some spools of ribbons to cover the straw wreath.
For this wreath, I used 2 spool of ribbon for covering the straw. For this part you can use any ribbons, because the back will be facing the wall or door. A straw wreath is not the usual wreath to use with deco mesh. The wreath recommended for working with the deco mesh ribbon, is the wire “work wreath”. But remember that I`m reusing the last year wreath.
For my 18 inches wreath, I cut the deco mesh 26 inches long for each bow.


Form a bow, putting the two ends together, and crumple together to the center and tied with the florist wire
Continue until you finish the 3 deco mesh ribbons.


Place the bows with a florist pin in the wreath, alternating colors: multi, orange, brown. Continue until you finish covering the whole wreath.
