Cut (3) 8” strips of both green deco meshes. Use the wood-burning tool to cut each of those strips diagonally to create triangles.
Next, we’re going to stack 2 triangles on top of each other. Bring the corners into the middle as you scrunch the wide end of the stacked triangles together. Insert the scrunched end into one of the zip ties in row 2. Repeat for the remaining 2 stacks.
Make the turquoise petals. Start by folding your first 20-inch strip in half. Fold it in half again, diagonally, and follow the same scrunching process that you did for the green mesh. Take the scrunched end and slide it in a zip tie starting with the outside ring first. Pull your zip tie tight. Repeat this process for every zip tie around that row of the board. Remember to cut off the excess zip tie ends as you go.
It’s time to add your 10×10 mesh strips to the center. You’ll make the same petal as above but this time cut out the initial step of folding the strip in half. Fold it diagonally into a triangle and scrunch the corners together.Add your petal to one of the zip ties in the middle. For the next petal, skip the cable tie beside that one and go add your next petal to the next zip tie.
Now we need to make a smaller flower petal. Take a square and fold it in half corner to corner, just like before. Next, fold it again to be a small triangle. Bring the tips together on the long side to form an open shoe shape. Use some hot glue and pinch the gap closed. Add your petal to one of the open zip ties you skipped. Repeat this step until all the open zip ties are filled.
Add hot glue to the bottom of the animal print mum and secure it to the center of your petals. Hold it nice and tight with pressure Until it cools.
Give your flower a more textured and layered look by lifting your petals on the second row and pulling them forward. Pull the two layers of each petal apart a little. This really adds more dimension to your wreath.
Find the top of your board (it has the most holes). Go ahead and add a pipe cleaner as a hanger.
