You may need to attach at the bottom where there are no twists to attach with. Take care when opening the twist that you don't lose your previous mesh attachment.Ĭontinue working up and down the top and bottom with the mesh until you have the frame covered. All the top strips will need to be secure in this same twist. Once you have attached at the bottom, take the mesh back up to the top again and re-open the top secure and secure. Then pull the mesh back down to the bottom (not what would be the stump of the tree). Secure the mesh at the top of the tree with just a couple of turns. The cutting mat in the image is a 24" x 36" self healing Omnigrid Cutting Mat (available at Amazon and we have included our affiliate link.) Pull the mesh without having it poufed up, but don't stretch it tightly. There is a twist right in the top of the tree. Start by attaching the mesh to one corner of the wall tree and pull the mesh up to the top of the tree. It only took one roll to make the project. The wide foil mesh products yield better coverage than just regular metallic mesh. We used 10" x 10 yards Orange Wide Foil Mesh RE134120. You could use most any color since the twists do not show at the end of the project.
It measures about 20" in ht and comes in different colors. Note: Invariably, we usually sell out of items that we make the tutorials with, but you can follow these basic directions and substitute other colors of the wall tree, mesh, ribbons or witch legs. The last couple we did were make using the Straight Ribbon Rail and this season, it seems the rails are in short supply, so we used another product - the Pencil Open Wall Tree and it worked out just great)) This is a new version of our Witch Hat with Legs tutorial.
