How to Make a Pinwheel Ruffle Wreath With One Roll of Mesh |Fun and Easy

[Music] hi I'm Lori welcome to my Channel today we're going to do something super fun we're going to be making a Valentine's wreath I'm going to call it pin wheel I don't know if anyone has done this before definitely possible but I had an idea that I thought would be really cute to do with some striped mesh so we're going to be using one of the Dollar Tree frames okay so the way that I want to do this wreath is going to have the edges kind of standing up so I want to burn the edges so that I don't have to worry about it fraying because that would really take away from how I want it to look so I'm going to cut I want to cut my mesh at 15 in this is a wood burning tool so I'm going to find the 15 in on my board and I have just a piece of tempered glass underneath here so that I won't burn my table because these wood burners they get super hot and they will burn your table so once it's ready all you're going to do I'm going to move a little closer so you can see is you're going to pick your line and you're just going to drag it down just like that so you can see it's going to burn that edge and then you're not going to have to worry about it fraying that's my dog okay so I'm G to cut 18 of these I do like to use my little hot shot to keep my wood burner on because I will tell you that it is very easy to drop these things and burn your carpet they're terrible so make sure you're careful when you're using these for for water that for [Music] that now what I think I do want to do the that true for for okay that whoops damn [Applause] it I'll be using this face that sucks for we're going to be making this with one of the 14in Dollar Tree wreath frames and some pipe cleaners so I'm going to take my mesh and I'm just going to go straight up the center to make a ruffle I'm not going to tuck anything under because I actually have something I want to do to kind of make it look a specific way so let me put this in my little tool for a second all right I'm going to use some pipe cleaners and I'm going to cut them in half okay I'm just going to take a pipe cleaner I'm going to start at the crossbar then I'm going to take my mesh my mesh I'm going to tie it down right to that tie and then similar to the pancake I'm going to spread it out but I don't want it to be flat I actually want it to kind of come up like this like little flowers or little pin Wheels you could also really put them and make them flat but I really kind of want them to stand up okay so then I'll go next to it put another tie down I'm going to go over the last two bars I want them to be about 3 or 4 in apart so about every 3 three or 4 in we're going to put another one I'm just going to kind of eyeball it I'm thinking we will probably have about three in each section on the bottom okay take the next one this time I'm going to use my tool I'm just going to go straight up no tucking because we actually did the little wood burning tool so we don't need to I'm going to place it down tie it down and then spread it out and I'm going to have the one next to it kind of up against it okay so you can see it's almost like a ruffle but I'm pushing it up it's kind of the opposite of a pancake wreath so with the pancake you're going to overlap them and then push them down with this I actually want to push them up all right let's do one more and then I'm going to go around and do the bottom so three in each section and then we'll come back and we'll do the same thing on the top I'm not going to put any ribbon in this because what I really want to see are these little pin Wheels they kind of remind me of pin Wheels okay so I'm going to just keep going around doing the same [Music] thing so we've gotten all the way around the bottom doesn't that look cool okay so we have have six pieces left I'm going to go ahead and put them in I'm just going to kind of put one in each section just to kind of fill it in a little bit more but um you can either fill in the bottom a little bit more or you can do two in the bottom two on the top and this is just one roll of mesh so if you wanted do two layers of this you would probably need about one and a half rolls not even quite a half roll but yes one and a half rolls okay there we go but I really wanted to do with this with just one roll so I'm just going to kind of fill in the center of each section so kind of right in the center I'll go across the first and second bar the top two bars right down the center and I'm going to twist it just like I did on the bottom so kind of like the pancake wreath where you fold one side over the other but we want it to stand up instead of lay down like that okay I'm going to go ahead and do the other [Music] sections look how pretty that is Isn't that cool so that's only one roll of mesh we use the whole roll but it's nice and full you can't see anything in the middle so for the center I just want to do a little love sign so I have the pink with the love heart and I have the black and white with the pink love heart so let's see which one do I like better I think I kind of like that one okay so I'm just going to take my weaving needle I'm going take my hole punch I'm going to punch a hole in the top and the bottom anytime you're working with um metal signs it's much better just to go ahead and punch a hole in it it's going to be more secure I live in the south so in the south things do not stick to the back of the signs such as the adhesive zip tie mounts those just do not stay on here here so if I'm doing metal I'm going to use a metal hole punch if I'm doing wood I am going to use staples and a either a pipe cleaner or wire okay so I'm going to twist it at the edge there so I just pull it through double it up and just twist it so the wire won't move then I'm going to bring it over here I'm going to kind of move my mesh a little bit because I kind of want to Nestle it in there and I really don't want to cover up any of the pretty pattern that doing this makes with the mesh right so I'm going to put my wire in just like I'm going to sew something and I can go right down through the mesh and just kind of hide it over on the edge like that there we go then I can get my sign twisted around the wire frame see even from the back this looks nice and neat okay there we go it's the same thing at the bottom and that will be it there we go so again just twist it around the frame this will be cute for any season it's especially cute I think with striped mesh but I think it look great with any mesh because it's the design it makes making it kind of like a pin wheel like an upside down pancake wreath okay oh that is so cute all right I hope you enjoyed this this is such a fun project and I didn't even add any ribbon but it is so cute I love it so you have to let me know what you think and you could add a bow down here if you wanted but I really want to see how the uh mesh does the little curling with the little pin wheel so I don't want to add anything on to it
