This is a re-post of a tutorial we did in 2019, but you can still get the Cupid Wreath Decor Kit and just pick out different ribbons and mesh. Looking to make an easy Valentine wreath for your front door? RGA138915 1.5" Pink Red White Metallic Dot Ribbon Note: These supplies are not the same used in the video, but should yield a similar result. We used two different styles of mesh for this wreath doing the ruffle technique. My preference is to put the prettiest or most expensive mesh on top.
Attach the ribbon cluster by opening the twist, and reclose with 3-4 turns. You'll have to fluff your ribbons when you are finished also along with clipping any strings from the mesh.
You can also make the ruffle by rolling each end of the mesh a little bit and then gather. The cupid pieces are made of polyester, so get an idea where you want to place your items before securing. Once you have decided on your placement, use the wires on the pieces to secure to the work wreath frame, or for the smaller pieces you may want to secure to an adjacent twist. Make a hanger on the back of your wreath using a chenille stem, floral wire or zip ties.
It helps to put the hanger on before you start lining up your cupid pieces so you can stay centered on your wreath. If you like, you can make a large bow with the left over ribbon.
If the Cupid Wreath Decor Kits have sold out, you could use a cute Valentine sign also.
