I have found that most meshes can be lightly ironed with a warm iron set to, I think it's called synthetic. I place a paper towel or parchment paper on top of the mesh, just in case I get my iron too hot and press the mesh flat. This method works great on the mesh that's close to the end of the roll since that area seems to curl so tightly. I have pressed the poly burlap, regular deco mesh, and fabric mesh. During trial and error, I have melted some of the mesh, but just cut the heat back a little and continue ironing the mesh. This is especially helpful to re-use mesh from older projects that either did not sell or some that I was just not happy with and tore them back apart. I hope this is helpful to some of your viewers, especially since mesh is expensive. happy crafting!!

What a beautiful tribute. I would like to try it for my husband but I'm a little confused about how to make the frame. I'm a beginner. You are so talented.

[@crookedtreecreations]

I need to do a separate video showing how I made the frame.... and also make them and sell them like I do the larger ones. I'll get on that this week! Thank you!

I would love it as well. Thanks

[@dianamumme3372]

What is flocking and why do you do that?

[@crookedtreecreations]

@@dianamumme3372 flocking looks like snow. I only did it so it would look “winter-y”!

[@crookedtreecreations]

That’s awesome! Thanks for watching! 😊

[@kimokerstrom581]

Loved the concept. Inspired me to do some creating of my own. The only thing is for personal preference I would like the wings more arched and the feathers to appear softer and fluffier.

[@crookedtreecreations]

Thank you for watching! I am going to try a different “petal” to see if I can get that fluffy look. I also prefer them to look soft, but I really don’t want the mesh to fray too much, either.

[@kimokerstrom581]

You can get a frayless look from the deco mesh if you use the cutting knife on a woodburning tool and seal them as you cut them off. It slices with the heat and seals as it cuts eliminating the fray! Give it a try. @@crookedtreecreations

[@crookedtreecreations]

@@kimokerstrom581 I usually do cut my mesh that way, but because I cut this in 5x5 pieces, it still wanted to fray on me!

[@Sweetannie05]

Patti, all of your items are so beautiful! ❤ I will, someday, attempt to make one.

You can do it! Thanks!!!

[@margaretconyers8232]

Thank You for the Beautiful Creation. This labor of Love is Heavenly! How many rolls of the mesh did you use? I love the way you improvised! God is The Greatest Creator of Us All ! He Blessed you , I and others with the Gift of Creativity! Amen 🙏🏾

[@crookedtreecreations]

Thank you so much! I only used 1 roll of mesh in this creation! So it’s very inexpensive to make, but takes a lot of time and patience! God bless you! 🥰😘🥰😘

[@margaretconyers8232]

Great I will try ! I have time and Patients to detail work ! I am Blessed and so many Ideas! Thank You God In The Almighty Name Of Jesus 🙏🏿

[@00honey000]

I love your videos, every thing you make is so gorgeous. Have you ever made an ornament like a 4 inch ornament? Thank you

[@crookedtreecreations]

Thank you!!! ☺️ Not yet! I’ve been thinking of how I would do one like that! That will be on my list of projects to do!

[@margaretconyers8232]

I was just watching another video and your video just popped up and I am so excited and Blessed that it did ! Jesus answers all of my curiosity’s! I was wondering how small could I make the petals for tiny add ons?

[@crookedtreecreations]

@margaretconyers8232 the size I made here is the smallest petals I’ve made. You could probably go smaller. Let me know if you try it!

[@michelleaudet7709]

I use a wood burning tool to cut the mesh, it works great! Minimal to zero fraying.

[@crookedtreecreations]

Yes!

[@juanitamason7062]

Interested to know can I purchase lavender and sky blue angel wings from you later today????

[@amandamayo8426]

I would be interested in buying something’s also

[@mo-rie]

Question: do I need a wire frame? Or can I just stick with the mesh cut outs? I would do the same as you to hold the wings together. It'll be going grave side

[@crookedtreecreations]

That’s a great question! I’ve never tried it without the wire frame! If you try it, let me know how it goes! I really would love to know!

[@tiggerseye]

So, I am wondering as to what it really is that you decided on for your wing base? Not the witch hat pieces and you made your own?

[@crookedtreecreations]

Correct. I ended up making my own. I sell them on my website and also have a video showing you how to make them. The links are in the description of this video.

[@agantt918]

Hi do you have a video on how you did the first part of the angel wing .. the canvas part

[@crookedtreecreations]

I made a second video making another small angel wing wreath and in there I show how to do the base with the carrot forms and plastic canvas in the beginning. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWXKqml6bNR2eJYsi=Sh5lRCozr5U9epRz

[@ronnaparker7895]

What is the Backing called I been trying to buy some but idk what it’s called

[@crookedtreecreations]

It’s called plastic canvas. Make sure you get the 5 mesh and not the 7 mesh. The 5 mesh has larger holes so the zip ties fit better.

[@elisehenley2220]

Do you have a drawing for you plastic canvas in the back

[@crookedtreecreations]

Unfortunately, I do not. If I figure out how to do one ti share, I’ll let you know!

[@amandamayo8426]

Hello my husband and I found you on KZbin and watched you make the angel wings and he said do you think you can do that? I said well it’s been along time but I’m willing to try. He said try to get ahold of you to see what you thought? ! Now my husband is so sick and dying in the hospital he’s on a vent and he’s not doing well and on March the 12 we will be married for 25 years now. He is much older than me so I want to think about what you think about buying everything from you and possibly doing it all myself 😢but I don’t want to mess up . And his son just literally passed away from a fentanyl overdose so he was down and weak from that but he said right before he got sick he said I should get the grave smaller set of wings ! I don’t have any craft supplies near me so I probably need to buy from you ? Or you can tell me what kinda mesh and flowers and stuff for them bc we do have a Michaels 50 minutes away tho . But I know you are my favorite person on here ! I hope to here back from you I’m sorry I been crying and a mess! 😢I do have a cross that I can do if you have the supplies to sell ? I’m sorry for bothering you but I hope to hear from you soon ty

[@crookedtreecreations]

Hi there! I’m so sorry for the loss of your husband’s son and that’s so sad that he’s very sick. Hugs to you! I’m sure you can make these yourself! It’s pretty easy, but it takes a long time, which means lots of patience! If you want, I can make a kit with all of the supplies you’ll need. Just let me know what color flowers you’d like. Reach out to me any time! Hugs, Patti

[@susanpierson7894]

I'm sorry that you are experiencing this grief now. My prayers are with you. After I lost my son I began crafting it helps distract my mind. I'm hoping you can too.

[@mistywilcox6548]

Where do i find the list of supplies

[@crookedtreecreations]

If you look in the description, there will be a list of supplies and links of where you can buy them.

What is your form made of

[@crookedtreecreations]

If you look in the description of this video, I have a link to another KZbin video showing how to make your own carrot forms as well as a link to purchase them in my website.

[@mistywilcox6548]

What is the mesh called the backing

[@crookedtreecreations]

It’s called plastic canvas. You can get it in the yarn section at Joann’s, Michael’s or Hobby Lobby. Just be sure to get the 5 mesh and not the 7 mesh. The 5 mesh has larger holes which helps the zip ties to fit better.

[@tigrezz514]

where did you get the flocking

[@crookedtreecreations]

I got it at least 3 maybe 4 years ago from Craftflocking.com. I’m not sure if they’re still in business because I can’t open the website on my phone. I just looked on Amazon and found this. It’s very similar to what I used. Have fun!!! amzn.to/3QpxaID
