How to Make a Halloween Wreath Using the EZ Wreath Form

The EZ Wreath form is a metal ring with short pieces of metal staggered around the ring. These short pieces are twisted around your mesh netting, ribbon or fabric to create your wreath. The wreath is created in the same fashion as using the Work Wreath. It is very lightweight and easy to use. The only other item you might need to create your wreath besides the ring, material and scissors, is possibly needle-nose pliers to make twisting the metal pieces easier. supplies for ez wreath Lay the EZ wreath on a flat surface and unroll your mesh netting. Start with about 3-4" of netting and place between the two short wires. Twist the wires to hold the mesh netting securely. ez wreath twisting around mesh We started out with black mesh netting for this wreath. Two colors can be worked with at the same time, or you can go around the form with one, then do the second. Either way is fine, just whichever works better for you. Bunch the mesh netting up in handfuls, about 10" or so. Don't worry with measuring or trying to get each handful the same. Try to stay about the same size, but later when you're finished you can pull and stretch to even out and fill in gaps. bunching mesh netting in ez wreath Continue working around the wreath form.
