- Here is a look at everything that was used in this Wreath
- Susan started this Wreath by first adding the base layer of Yellow Deco Mesh to the work form. She started on the outer ring of the work form and worked her way around making loops with the stems that are already on the work form. Once the outer ring was complete she moved on to the inner ring completing the same process until the entire work form was covered.
- Once the base layer of Mesh had been added Susan made ruffles out of the pink and white Mesh. She cut 10"-12" strips of each color and made ruffles for every other set of stems.
- Susan then moved on to add the Metal Easter Sign to the middle of the Wreath. This sign has a pre-drilled hole at the top and bottom of the Sign. Susan used a Chenille Stem in each hole to secure the Sign to the Work Form.
- Next Susan used all 5 ribbons to tie a large Bow for the lower right hand corner of the sign. She started with the 7/8" Yellow Ribbon creating two loops on each side, then she added the 1.5" Purple Bunnies Ribbon and the 1.5" Fuchsia Embossed Ribbon making two loops of each, then she added the 2.5" Bright Icons Ribbon and finished with the 4" Posey Plaid Ribbon. She left the tails a little longer on each ribbon so that they would hang down the front of the Wreath.
- Susan also made a smaller stacked Bow using the remaining Ribbon off of the first rolls for the top of the sign.
- Next Susan cut strips of each Ribbon to tie onto the top ring of Mesh. She cut 5 strips of each Ribbon and layered them. She then used the existing Stems on the Work Form to attach the Ribbons in the middle of the stack so that the Ribbons were hanging off the side of the Mesh.
- Once all of the Ribbon has been added you will have a fun and festive Wreath to use throughout the Easter season.
