Yield: 1 wreath

Equipment

  • 1 hot glue
  • 1 hot glue pot

Materials

  • 1 14-inch wreath wire frame
  • 2 rolls green mesh
  • 1 12-inch wooden pineapple sign
  • 2 yellow greenery bushes (60919)
  • 4 zip tie mounts
  • Green pipe cleaners
  • 2.5-inch floral wired ribbons
  • 1.5-inch Pineapple wired ribbon
  • 2.5-inch striped wired ribbon

Instructions

  • Cut 12 pieces of mesh at 25 inches. Cut 12 ribbon tails of your 1.5-inch wired ribbon and 12 ribbon tails of your 2.5-inch wired ribbon.
  • Attach pipe cleaners around the top (or inner) two rings at each of the frames six brackets. Then attach six more pipe cleaners around the bottom (or outer) rings in the spaces between the brackets.
  • Make a small curl at the start of your mesh, then gather the mesh as you pull it towards you to make a mesh ruffle. Make a small curl at the other end of the mesh.
  • Lay the mesh ruffle horizontally on top of the outer pipe cleaner and secure the pipe cleaner around the center of the ruffle. Do this for all outer pipe cleaners.
  • Take you 1.5-inch ribbon tail and 2.5-inch ribbon tail and stack your favorite ribbon tail on top of the other tail. (The 1.5-inch wire ribbon tail doesn’t have to be on the top).
  • Pinch the ribbons at the center, then lay them in the middle of the mesh cluster and twist the pipe cleaner around the ribbon.
  • Attach the mesh clusters and ribbon to the inner pipe cleaners, following steps 3-5.
  • Snuggle your greenery bush into the mesh and ribbon cluster on the inner ring only. Twist the pipe cleaners around the greenery bush stems to secure.
  • Glue zip mounts to the back of your sign, then attach a pipe cleaner to each mount, making sure the pipe cleaner’s arms are long enough to stick through the mesh and twist around the frame.
  • Make a bow with your 2.5-striped wired ribbon and your 1.5-inch pineapple ribbon. Make one loop on each side of your 2.5-inch ribbon and two loops on each side of your 1.5-inch ribbon. Combine the ribbons and wrap a pipe cleaner around the center, then attach the bow to the wreath using the same pipe cleaner. Fluff your bow.
