I love your mesh wreaths! Last year, I bought tons of mesh and some tulle and ribbon to add in with it. I have yet to actually sit down and make my wreaths. I'd like to make several for family and friends, and of course one for myself. For your wreaths, do you attach the mesh to a metal wreath frame?

Mesh wreaths
I used straw wreaths or very ugly green artificial greenery wreaths or Styrofoam wreaths. With the straw & styro ones I pined the poufs as I went with greening pins. On the other one I flattened the wreath & then pulled up 2 strands on the inside & outside of the wreaths & put a pouf between them & twisted them like twist ties. I liked the first too better. it also helped if you wrap those 1 st 2 with a matching ribbon in case some of it shows thru.Hobby Lobby & Prairie Gardens around here sell them for anywhere from $60 to $200.00. Mine were $45 to $65 & didn't sell any at the first show ,so will lower the price. I will still make money because I got the mesh at ridiculous prices at the Dollar stores. Takes me about 45 min to make if I'm having a good day. Some have battery lites & some don't.
