If you haven’t already, begin by cutting all your strips of mesh with the rotary cutter. You'll need ten 30" strips and eight 20" strips.
Take your 30” strips of deco mesh and begin making ruffles, one at a time, with each strip. Curl the ends in toward each other, then squeeze the middle together to create a ruffle. Attach your ruffle to the wreath base with a pipe cleaner on the base. Repeat this step for all of your 30” strips of deco mesh, attaching each one to your wreath with a new pipe cleaner as you make your way around the outside of the frame.
Repeat the same process with the 20” strips of mesh and attach them with the pipe cleaners around the inside of your frame.
Now it’s time to prepare the bunny. Peel off the back of 2 mounting squares, add a dab of super glue and press each square onto the back of the foam bunny (one near the top and one near the bottom). Cut a pipe cleaner in half and insert one half into each mounting square. Secure it in place with a tight twist. Then, use them to attach the foam bunny sign to the wreath.
Now it’s time to make our bow! Take your first 2.5” ribbon and make a 12” tail that cascades down with (2) 7” loops and an 8” tail (that goes up towards the top). Your tails and loops for this bow will be in an x-shape. Grab your next 2.5” ribbon and make a 12” tail at the bottom with 6.5” loops and an 8” tail at the top in an x-shape that’s offset from the layer below it. Now repeat the same tail and loop process with the first 1.5” ribbon, making the loops about 6”. Make sure to offset each layer from the previous one. Follow this same pattern again with the second 1.5” ribbon, making the loops about 5.5”. Repeat the process again with the third 1.5” ribbon, this time making loops a little smaller at about 5”.
Repeat the process one final time with the fourth 1.5-inch ribbon, making the loops 4.5”. Now take the final 1.5” ribbon and make the center loop for the bow by making two tails and a single 4” loop. Carefully remove your bow from the EZ Bow Maker and wrap a pipe cleaner around the middle. Twist tightly to secure the bow.
Attach the bow to the wreath next to the bunny sign using the pipe cleaner.
Now we’re going to add some ribbon tails to the wreath. Measure and cut (18) 13-inch ribbon tails of four different 1.5” ribbons. Dovetail all the ends. Then make pairs of ribbon tails so that you have two different sets of pairs (18 pairs total). Take a pair of ribbon tails and fold them in the middle to meet up with one side from the other end. You want to be able to see the pretty side of all the ribbons from the same side. Insert the folded end into one of the pipe cleaners holding a ruffle on the outside of the wreath and twist the pipe cleaner around the ribbon tail pair to secure it in place. Repeat the process by adding ribbon tails all around the outside of the wreath. Then, add a couple to the front of the wreath around the bunny.
The only thing that’s left is to finish your bow by dovetailing the ribbon tails. Fluff everything out and your wreath is done!
