Instructions

1. Cut your pipe cleaners in half - you will need five per wreath section, so for an 18 inch form, you’ll have 45 pieces. 
2. Place the pipe cleaners like this - coming from the underside of the form and add a drop of hot glue before you give it one twist ( like the picture below ). Then continue all the way around the wreath having five pipe cleaners per section. The hot glue keeps the pipe cleaner from shifting around when adding the deco mesh. But only twist once as you need to room on the pipe cleaner to add mesh and ribbon later.
3. Add mesh - Once you have all of your pipe cleaners on you can move onto adding the mesh. Open the mesh roll and gather the end in kind of a scrunch and twist the pipe cleaner around it once or twice but not too tight again as you need the pipe cleaner to add ribbon later.
4. How to add the poof to the mesh - You will want approx 10 inches of mesh to create the poof to the next pipe cleaner and each pipe cleaner thereafter. I use my wrist to my elbow as it is pretty much 10 inches on everyone.
5. Continue adding mesh until the end - Gather mesh and wrap pipe cleaner to make poof and keep going all the way around and continue doing this even into the center until you reach the final pipe cleaner. At the final pipe cleaner measure your 10 inches of mesh plus a small extra amount as this will be the end. Wrap mesh in pipe cleaner and cut off any excess and tuck down.
6. Add ribbon accents - Now to cut your ribbon accents. You’ll need 14-14inches of ribbon per color using at least 2-3 colors. Also, cut your ends at an angle from the wired edge to create the angled edge.
7. Prep ribbons for the wreath - Once all ribbon is cut set out your piles of each color and prep to make your ribbon add ons to your wreath. The next 3 pictures are examples of what I do. I go around the outside of the wreath frame and do every other or so pipe cleaner and add a ribbon bundle, twist the pipe cleaner nice and tight then push any excess pipe cleaner towards the back after adding the ribbon. Lastly, fill in the center area pipe cleaners just to create a full look per how you like or want it.
8. Add your decorative accent of choice! - Once I get all the ribbon where I want I add a decorative accent and in this case, it was the cute little wooden trailer. It came with a hook so I was able to secure it to the wreath using its hook. But you can add anything as an accent per your liking.
