  • Hi Everyone, In this video I show you how to make this beautiful garland using a yardstick. It can also be used as a centerpiece or a door swag.
    Materials needed
    1 yardstick
    1 roll 10 inch deco mesh red
    2 rolls 6 inch deco mesh white with red stripe
    2 rolls 6 inch deco mesh red with silver stripe
    1 package mesh tubing white
    1 package pipe cleaners silver
    3 packages Christmas shatterproof ornaments
    1 floral Christmas pick
    1 roll ribbon with wire
    floral stem wire
    scissors
    hot glue gun and glue sticks
    ruler
    cut 6 inch deco mesh in 24 inch strips - make 7 bundles
    I added 7 pipe cleaners total when I started adding the red 10 inch deco mesh. I placed them 5-6 inches apart on the yardstick.
    Thank you for watching. God Bless

      Hi Amy, I am sure there is a way, but I have never made one with just ribbons. I uploaded a Christmas yardstick centerpiece last week that had lots of ribbon on it. I did use two kinds of deco mesh to make it full though. You might like it better than this one. Thank you so much for the nice compliment.

    I’m going to leave a tip for anyone who uses hot glue a lot. Keep a glass of cold water by you and every time you get ready to attached something with it before pressing down dip the tips of your fingertips in the water then press down it prevents burn and absolutely prevents you from getting burned I have personally had my fair share of burns but once I started doing this I no longer get burned the hot glue absolutely won’t stick to your fingers with the water

    Just FYI, I don’t know if you have ever bought from Papermart,. Papermartcompare to $tree it’s actually cheaper, They have cheap prices and better mesh, and more on their rolls. If you haven’t checked them out b4 I suggest you look at their site. I mad the mistake with some deco tubing. I needed several bags for my wrath I was making and didn’t think to look at Papermart, but I looked it up afterwards and their bag of mesh tubing was$1.15, but it equals to 3-4 bags of $tree. I’m not a spoke person, worker, or paid in anyway by Papermart. I just love their prices and quality.
