Directions:
Step 1: Preparation
Gather all your materials and ensure you have a clean and well-lit workspace. Lay out your Dollar Tree ruler mat, as it will be instrumental in achieving uniform loops during the bubble method.
Step 2: Attaching Deco Mesh to Wreath Form
Cut pipe cleaners in half and fold them for easy handling. Attach the fuchsia pink and white Deco Mesh to the wreath form, following the bubble method. Each section should have seven loops, each measuring precisely eight inches.
Step 3: Layering Deco Mesh
Ensure the Deco Mesh layers smoothly, creating a visually appealing bubble effect. Use zip ties for secure attachment, considering the recommended attachment points on the wreath form intersections.
Step 4: Customizing Centerpiece
Prepare the Love sign from the Dollar Tree kit by removing the twine and applying lightweight spackling. Overfill the spackling slightly, as it will shrink upon drying. Sand the spackling for a smooth finish before painting.
Step 5: Painting and Customization
Prime the Love sign with a white coat for a brighter finish. Customize the sign with polka dots or your preferred design using brilliant magenta paint. Ensure the sides of the wording are also painted for a polished look.
Step 6: Attaching the Centerpiece
Use pipe cleaners to attach the Love sign to the wreath. Position it where desired, flipping it over and tightening the pipe cleaners for secure attachment. The customization adds a personal touch to your Valentine's wreath.
