How to make a Halloween Deco Mesh Wreath. Use supplies from Dollar Tree to create a darling Halloween wreath to use in your Halloween decor.
This year, more than ever, I am ready for fall, cooler temperatures, and all the fun the holidays bring. Every year I look forward to September because it means we are that much closer to Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.
Dollar Tree is one of my favorite places to get holiday craft supplies. I have been wanting to make a deco mesh wreath for each holiday, and today I am going to show you how to make one for Halloween.

Halloween Deco Mesh Wreath
Supplies:
- Wire Wreath Form
- Pipe Cleaners
- Deco Mesh and Sparkle Mesh
- Ribbon
- Glitter Pumpkins, Bats, and/or Spiders
- Rotary Cutter and Mat
- Scissors
Add Pipe Cleaners
Start by cutting some pipe cleaners in half with scissors.
Attach the cut pipe cleaners evenly around a wire wreath form.
Cut Deco Mesh and Attach
Use a rotary cutter and mat to cut the deco mesh and sparkle mesh into 6″ wide strips. These don’t have to be exact.
You could also use regular scissors for this, but a rotary cutter and mat make this step go much quicker.
Roll each piece of deco mesh and stack 3 pieces on top of each other. I did three different colors of deco mesh and sparkle mesh for each section. Attach the stack of three to the wreath using the pipe cleaner.

Continue this process around the entire wreath, adding more pipe cleaners to fill in the gaps, as needed.
Add Ribbon
Next, to attach the ribbon, cut it into a 6″ strip. Cut a V-shape into each end of the ribbon.
Use a piece of pipe cleaner to wrap the middle of the ribbon, and attach it to the metal wreath frame.
Fluff the pieces of deco mesh to both cover the wreath frame and the pipe cleaners.
Add Embellishments
While the wreath looks adorable as is, I wanted to add a little more to my wreath. I used some glitter pumpkins and bats and attached them to the wreath. The bats simply clipped on.
For the pumpkins, I poked a pipe cleaner through the bottom of the pumpkin and then wrapped the pipe cleaner onto the wreath form. You could also attach your embellishments using a glue gun.
This Halloween wreath turned out so cute! It was easy to make and inexpensive. It cost me only $11 to make. 1 wreath form, 3 deco mesh, 2 sparkle mesh, 1 ribbon, 1 package pipe cleaners, 2 packages glitter pumpkins, and one package glitter bats.

The wreath is so cute, thank you for showing us how to make it. I was wondering how many bundles you used per section? Ann

Hi Ann!
I used about 6 bundles per section. You can add more or less depending on how full you want your wreath to be.
