    I just loved your technique for sharing your THOUGHTS on the Deco MESH from the DOLLAR Tree so it doesn't fry (I hope I spelled it right) but I can't tell you how much I have bought of the MESH from the DOLLAR Tree and it is so annoying that it fries everytime you start working with it and you're methods look so easy and simple and i just can't wait to see how mine comes out by doing these ways you have SHOWN us. I just want to thank you for taking time to show many of us a way to use the 30 rolls of MESH that I can use. YOU HAVE SOLVED A BIG MYSTERY ABOUT THE MESH FROM DOLLAR TREE, AND WISH ME LUCK. GOD BLESS AND THANK YOU SO MUCH.

      Beverly, if you catch Michaels mesh on 50% off sale, it probably works out to about the same money and you’ll have mesh left over on the roll.

  • @jazzysophie9943
    @jazzysophie9943 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I use a wood burning device for cutting my mesh. That might take a little more time but it does help. Especially, with the cheap dollar tree mesh. The basic mesh, especially the 6 inch from Dollar Tree, Dollar Store, etc., frays horribly. But, most your basic does fray. The curly look is so beautiful and looks great. I've gotten more compliments with the curly curls than with any of my other wreaths. There's something about those curls. That's why a wood burning device comes in handy. I hate looking at a wreath that has a lot of fraying. A good wreath maker notices sloppy work when they see it. If you're going to make a wreath, do it right. Take your time. Your creation is most important to those looking at your creation. Of course, you can get by with sloppy wreaths to someone who doesn't know what to look for. I appreciate good workmanship.

    • @MichelleSmithCreations
      @MichelleSmithCreations  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I know a lot of people use a wood burner to cut their mesh. Mesh is made of plastic and when cut with heat can give off harmful fumes. That is why I do not use a wood burner to cut mesh.
