Mesh Wreath Using Jute Mesh

Mesh Wreath Material: Jute Mesh

I was gathering materials for a summer mesh wreath for my front door, when I came across this roll of widely spaced mesh at a local store. Instead of looking like plastic, this looks like strings coated with paper.  I decided to try it even though it was more expensive than the other deco-mesh rolls.
***I just changed the title to this post like a month after posting. I found out that what I was calling paper mesh is actually Jute Mesh.***

Paper Mesh Wreath

Wreath Recipe:

• I used blue and white striped metallic mesh
• papery-like "jute" mesh
• a roll of hot pink glitter tree garland
• pink, blue, & black ribbon.
• one spiral ornament folded in half to resemble the ribbon from the bow 
• mounted on a 30" wire form
• the finished size is 36"+- across.

 I really didn't know how to use the paper mesh at first. I had to redo my original design because it looked awkward.  I made two rows around with the stripes and put the paper mesh in between the two rows. This paper mesh is super messy; It left pieces of paper flakes everywhere. I don't think paper mesh is something I would buy more of for myself. 4 weeks later and I'm still finding blue flakes, but I will say the mesh wreath still looks great.

I made a new mesh wreath using the same roll of jute used in the mesh wreath above. Click here to view another wreath with jute.
