When learning to make this wreath, I did exactly what you are doing and got onto KZbin to see how others have been making theirs. I watched ‪@MonkeysCreations‬ , ‪@KatsCreationsNMore‬ , and ‪@ThisSouthernGirlCan‬ and found what I liked from all three tutorials and then added my own twist.
For this wreath, I used 18 pieces of each color of mesh, which would make 54 pieces altogether .
Enjoy!

[@josephconroy5611]

Please tell me what the mesh you used is called. My mesh is very flimsy but yours seems to be much more substantial. Thank you.

[@crookedtreecreations]

This mesh is called “Deluxe Wide Foil Mesh”. Thanks for watching!

[@deborahbarlow1513]

How much mesh did you use? I am going to make a red dragon for my grandson. He loves Game of Thrones, and his favorite color is red. I am going to buy two colors of red and black mesh. I have everything other than the mesh and canvas.😊

[@crookedtreecreations]

It took 54 pieces of mesh altogether. You could use 36 of red and 18 black. You SHOULD get 36 pieces out of one roll, but I’d get a second roll just in case (or cut the pieces to 9 1/2”)! Good luck and enjoy!!! I’m sure your grandson will love it!

Where do you purchase the dragon mask, wings and tail?

[@crookedtreecreations]

I got it from amazon. Here is the link: amzn.to/3Lg7fRE

[@ForgottenDetails]

I'm curious... Why can't the petals/scales be attached to the front of the wire frame? I don't understand why adding the needlepoint canvas to the reverse of the frame is necessary. I've watched many KZbinrs make the dragon wreath and no one has ever explained why adding needlepoint canvas to the reverse of the wire frame is necessary. Can you help me understand that?

[@crookedtreecreations]

You can attach the petals to the front; however, using the plastic canvas will keep the petals from shifting. Also, it just looks better laying flat, IMO.

[@ForgottenDetails]

@@crookedtreecreations Thanks for getting back to me. I appreciate it. And thanks for the explanation. ;)

[@thewriterchick134]

I love these! :) I found the child's costume on Amazon but it's $30.99. Are you selling these wreaths and if so, how much? That's a lot for a costume to use in a wreath and I want to make sure if I make them and sell them, I am charging enough. Thank you!

[@crookedtreecreations]

My friend that I made these for bought the costume and eyes off of Amazon. I only charged her for the mesh and my time. You would definitely have to charge at least $100 for one of these!

[@lisaturner414]

What mesh is this?? Where do i get the mesh and the eyes?

[@crookedtreecreations]

Hi there! The mesh is called Deluxe Wide Foil Mesh and I ordered it from Craft Outlet. The eyes are 30mm and were purchased from amazon. This is the link to the eyes: amzn.to/3LPTHwQ

[@lindao8014]

@@crookedtreecreations I bought mine through Temu, but if you watch the craft stores, it goes on sale, reasonably often.

[@lindao8014]

What happens to hot glue, if it’s outside in freezing temperatures? I think for the eyes at least, I’m going to use gorilla glue.

[@crookedtreecreations]

I would use either Gorilla glue in the tube or E6000 if it would be in the hot sun.

Good morning. What size are the eyes, please.

My friend that I made this for got the eyes. She got a pack that had several different sizes. However, I believe these ones were 30mm.

Did you have a problem with the hot glue showing through the mesh after it dried? Mine did especially on black mesh. I don’t know how to fix it. Please help!

[@crookedtreecreations]

I just put a small line of hot glue and then I didn’t put the clothes pin directly onto where I put the glue. It didn’t show through. (I accidentally did put the clothes pin where the glue was and it didn’t look right.

[@joycemcdonald6607]

@@crookedtreecreations thank you. I am probably using too much. I am trying to use a flat iron with parchment paper to get some of it off.

[@lisapryor8919]

I was just wondering, did you use 1 roll of each colored mesh? Or do I need to buy 2 rolls of each? Thank you!! Also, did the eyes stay stuck on well with the hot glue?

[@crookedtreecreations]

I used 1/2 roll (eighteen 10” pieces) of each color and yes, the eyes stayed on using the hot glue!

[@joanfallacaro]

Why the 5" mesh - what would happen if I used 7" mesh? Love this tutorial!

[@crookedtreecreations]

I believe the 5 mesh plastic canvas has 5 holes per inch where the 7 mesh has 7 holes per inch. That means the 5 mesh has larger holes so your zip ties fit better. It would be tough to fit the zip ties into the holes of the 7 mesh.
