I’ve been watching crafting videos for about 6 months now. Different styles of many crafts. You are a wonderful teacher. Very precise, strong quality voice and with clear instructions. Your comments were good. And when things were not so easy to do was a plus to hear. Very very good instructional with all the different meshes and sizes and NAMES of the what you are doing. Ruffle crumple roll etc. people forget that not everyone understands what they are referring too.

[@Kitobby]

Oh Terri, thank you so much for that feedback.

[@rebeccaboltz4678]

Thank you so much for showing different techniques..I learned alot from watching you.

[@gloriakoch4764]

For curls, if yiu have a Bowdabra you can put the curls in it until yiu have the three that make up your bundle. You put them in the Bowdabra instead of using a clip.

Glad it was helpful!

[@karendixon6311]

I have been watching your videos for about 6 months. You are so creative and knowledgeable about various different techniques and material. I could watch you all day but that wouldn't help me make many wreaths 😆 unfortunately we, in England, don't have the accessibility to all of the products you use, I spend a lot of time searching for alternatives. Some times it works sometimes not. Please keep producing and sharing your tutorials

[@Kitobby]

Hi Karen, I've heard that quite a lot about limited availability. I am so impressed by some peoples creativity with trying different (out of the box) ideas!

Thank You for taking the time to put in ONE video with these methods for wreath making. It is very nice to have them all in one place so I do not have to reference to a dozen videos to decide which method I would like to do....thank you....rest your hands that was a lot of work.

[@Kitobby]

You're very welcome. In the beginning, I hated searching through KZbin trying to remember where I saw a certain technique done - only to never find it again. I really aimed to try and put as much as possible into this video. But will still have more to come. 😉

[@jenniferkleczka279]

These are pretty. As you were making them i had a couple ideas. The first one is getting a couple of battery powered string LED lights from the DOLLAR ( and 29 cents ) STORE and attach the lights on the wreath frame before or as your adding the mesh. The other idea it use any of the methods of putting the mesh on the wire form with either green or white mesh with sparkles them hot glue some Christmas ornaments with the string of LED lights.

[@kathybanas7271]

[@theresahodge9705]

Thank You So....Much for taking the time to share this compilation, I learned a couple new methods today. I’ve been struggling to gather In my mind all of the techniques available because I don’t always Have the specific materials or fabric types to follow along with a KZbin tutorial And I think this will help me at times when another Type of curl or ruffle is needed to help cover the wreath frame.

[@Kitobby]

Hi Theresa, Yes there are so many different combinations you can use. Honestly, it all comes down to personal preference. I've watched tutorials from other wreath makers where they've used ruffles. And for me, I know I prefer a cruffle. So if I were following along with them, I'd just do a cruffle instead. I hope that made sense. For the sake of time, I really didn't cover all of the different combinations. Maybe next time. ; )

[@paulastrong7571]

Thanks for sharing how to make a wreath that fits between the door and the storm door! I always have problems with the wreath being too thick! These wreaths are all so pretty! I can only imagine how sore your fingers get!

[@cindycrocker4683]

I started learning how to make mesh wreaths last year. I tried to follow how to make a garland. I had no idea what the lady was talking about. I have been buying, learning, watching since then. I have wished often someone would have told me to get only 10 inch mesh. I have tried cutting the long mesh. Im 60 with arthritis and neck issues. I got tired of all the extra cutting. I am very grateful to you for this video. You are awesome, great teacher! Finally i see some way to use the 21 inch lengths. I knew there was more. LOL. Please do a bow one next!

[@Kitobby]

I know everyone has their preferences, but I really think 10" mesh has far more options than 21" mesh. The biggest benefit I've found to 21" mesh is the coverage. I have a few bow videos on my channel.

[@debbiedobbs5800]

I’ve never seen the “pancake” method before. I love it. That one and the “Jackie” weave are my favorites. This video is great!

[@Kitobby]

I hadn't ever used a tri-color mesh for the pancake method before. But that mesh I used for this one, turned out so pretty! The "pancakes" look like flowers in my opinion. Sometimes I hate to cover up mesh with ribbon, this is one of those. I love the Jackie Weave. It's a great way to use up left over 21" mesh that I have stockpiled. Thank you for watching Debbie!

[@Joanne-yl2sx]

Pancake is my favorite. So simple, easy and beautiful. 😊

[@naomisnyder]

I’ve been looking for something exactly like this. You so clearly take your time to demonstrate. I like seeing this clear comparison of different techniques and different kinds of mesh (so many out there). I really like when you show the back of the wreath when done. It helps to see how the different steps are organized! Your comments referring to time required for each technique and how it effects those with arthritis is helpful. Thank you for repeating measurements for us too! It’s great that your camera view includes your entire work table with a full view of wreath. Holding wreath up to camera to peak closer helped. And depth of wreath hanging on your door is great. I could just keep going on and on… Thank you for this! 😊❤

I do the cruffle or pouf usually, I've never seen the Jackie weave, very attractive, will "attempt" soon lol. You've given me ways to use the 21in mesh, never worked with that, always just 6in or 10in, thank you.

[@Kitobby]

Hi Pam, not sure what happened. I had replied to you the other day, but I don't see it now. 21" mesh is pretty easy to use. I sometimes prefer it because you can cover an area easier.
