Hello Christine: I may have told you that I'm a novice wreath maker when I first wrote but that was time ago. I've made several costly mistakes in my quest to learn wreath making and have yet to complete a project because I am easily discouraged. Nevertheless, determined to make my favorite design for the holidays. I have a dilemma in that I live in a Senior Citizen complex and there is no safe space to use a woodburner. Can you/will you suggest a different type mesh? Of course, it stands to reason the completed project will not have the final look expected from a master crafter who uses the recommended materials. (Smiles). If there is anything you suggest will be a priceless gift. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you. Mona use a woodburner
Hi Mona. For any of my flowers with folded petals, you could use virtually any cutting tool since any cut edges will get folded/tucked in. If you plan to make one of my wreaths where the cut edges are left exposed, you could use a rotary cutting tool instead of the wood burner but you would need to cut with more care. I’d suggest adding a little Mod Podge to the cut mesh edges to prevent fraying, in this case. Good luck! 🍀
You could certainly try but the wreath boards I’ve seen this size don’t allow for this exact configuration of petals, particularly the center row. Take care! Christine 🌺
@@ChristineFitzgibbons-ob4dw Thank you for your reply. I looked very carefully at the board and you're absolutely right. I will gladly follow the details of the instructions. Experimenting is not worth the price. Thank you. Mona
Hi Denise. I’m happy to make any of my wreaths assuming I still have all the materials. I’m embarrassed to say, however, I’m not sure which wreath you’re interested in! I guess I’ve made too many!!! Maybe you could send a link? Take care, Christine
Hi there. I use a 3 in 1 cutting tool that I purchased on Amazon. Try the following link: www.amazon.com/dp/B08LK7L59N/?coliid=I2633MDFZE6JP6&colid=37KHFXRCJCEOW&psc=1&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it Take care!
I use a wood burning tool (see link for a similar one): www.michaels.com/product/walnut-hollow-creative-woodburner-value-tool-10005558?michaelsStore=8352&inv=4

First time watcher of your crafts and love the wreath, so pretty and you explained it so well.
Pet nail clippers works great for zip ties.
That’s a great idea! 😊
You are so good. ❤

Absolutely beautiful! I would love to see how you made the bee wreath ❤
Thank you so much! And I would be happy to make the bee wreath…I’ll add it to my future “play list”! 🐝
I love the wreath from which I plan to make for Christmas. But can this same design be made on a board?

What kind of snippers are those that you are using to cut the bottom of the petals off?
