Join me in crafting this simple, yet striking, sunflower wreath. I demonstrate this simple petal technique using poly burlap mesh but this can be adapted to use any type of mesh you have on hand. Come follow along!
I bought my mesh for this project from:
Craftoutlet.com
Supplies:
One roll of 10" solid burgundy poly burlap mesh (cranberry red is a good alternative)
One roll of 10" olive green poly burlap mesh
8" zip ties
#5 plastic mesh for the wreath center
8" Dollar Tree wire wreath frame
5" sunflower wreath center (from Craftoutlet.com)
Pipe cleaner for hanging
Floral wire to attach your flower center
Coordinating felt circle for the back of your wreath

Perfection as always! You're my go to for all tutorials.😊 I have a question I'm really in need of an answered. Why don't my rotary cutters cut? Especially on poly deco. I bought several. Last one were Westcott medium 45mm. . You just zip right through. What do you use? Maybe I need heavy, not medium Thank you in advance.

Love the burgundy color. Thanks for posting another beautiful design. Have you ever made a wreath using the braided rope like the nautical rope?

Hi Sherry! Yes, I have. I love rope for flower wreath centers. My favorite is this blue/white rope from Hobby Lobby (it's hard to find sometimes). But, I've also made some non-flower wreaths using Dollar Tree rope woven around a wire heart frame....simple and pretty! www.etsy.com/your/shops/me/listing-editor/edit/1031359429

@@ChristineFitzgibbons-ob4dw Thanks for your reply. Yes, I have had a hard time finding the rope at HL lately. It used to be with the ribbon, but not anymore. Your shop has some beautiful wreaths!

I notice that you mesh is so beautifully cut with very little fray. Do you find it is just experience or do you have a secret?😉? Thank you again!!!!

@ChristineFitzgibbons-ob4dw Ай бұрын

Hi there! I usually use a wood burning tool to cut my poly burlap mesh. Then I dot the cut edges with a little Mod Podge and let it dry for a few hours before use. That added step helps lessen fraying. Take care!

This is beautiful! I do have a question. Would it work to hot-glue the felt backing to the back of the frame, rather than using zip ties?

Yes, you absolutely can glue it!

Very good video. Easy to follow! One question, when my wreath frame came in the mail it had 4 wires on it not 3 Where would I start with this frame? Thank you

@ChristineFitzgibbons-ob4dw Ай бұрын

Hi there! When I have a 4 wire frame (my 12" frames usually have four), I usually place my outer row of petals on the wire that is second from the outside. Thanks for the question!

Is there any other place I can buy the burlap and is the certain name for it? Thanks! NVM I found this stuff on Amazon and it has everything including the flower in the middle. Is this something you sell?

I usually buy my poly burlap mesh from craftoutlet.com. While I don’t sell wreath kits, I do sell my finished wreaths on Etsy. Take care! www.etsy.com/shop/TheDoorDoctor?ref=dashboard-header

@gailbremer1323 Ай бұрын

I have another question for you. Do you ever use a fabric mesh for your flower petals as the cost is a little better.

@ChristineFitzgibbons-ob4dw Ай бұрын

While I prefer poly burlap mesh for its thickness, I do use deco and fabric mesh. I think they both make lovely folded petals. This rose gold mesh flower I love is a fabric mesh. Take care! m.kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jLqAea2KtJq7aX0.html
