Crafting Blooms: DIY Fabric Mesh Flower Wreath
DIY Flower Wreath
Carrie and I made this fabric mesh flower wreath on a Facebook live the other day. If you missed the live, you can catch the replay on YouTube.
A flower wreath is an easy DIY project and it doesn’t take too many supplies. We made this flower wreath out fabric mesh, but you can use poly burlap, metallic or non-metallic mesh. Here’s a link to a similar sunflower wreath I made a while back using simple plain deco mesh in two colors.

- Row 5 and Center Hole: no zip ties. Flower center to be hot glued.

- Hot glue the flower center and make a hanger with a zip tie. Clip the frays.
Fabric Mesh
All total, you need 32 pieces of white and 32 of aqua for the fabric mesh flower wreath. One roll of each mesh should be sufficient. I love working with fabric mesh! It has a bit of Polyester along with Polypropylene which gives it more of a fabric feel and less plastic.
