Patriotic Mesh Wreath


I really enjoy working with mesh ribbon.  I love the slight shine to it and the unruly look of the completed project. Thankfully, Hobby Lobby now sells it.  Before, I had to purchase it at smaller shops where it costs twice the regular price of Hobby Lobby, if not more.  For this wreath, I used my wreath from Christmas.  I removed everything but the red and white stripe mesh. 


For this step, I had used a spare green Christmas wreath and loosely bunched up the mesh, securing it by twisting the green branches of the wreath around the mesh.


I left a little opening where I wanted to insert this navy blue mesh.


I just made a 4 loop bunch and inserted it into the opening.


I loosely wrapped this garland that I purchased at the Dollar Tree around the mesh.  I found a roll of flag ribbon in my supplies and added it as well.


Here it is on the front door.


Thanks for stopping by!

  8. Hi Tammy....what a festive wreath that is so perfect for this time of year. I liked how you used the star garland. I bought some this year, but haven't figured out how I plan to use it yet. Thanks for sharing with everyone how you made your wreath. I appreciate you visiting Your Cozy Home Party this week!
