Witchy Petticoat Wreath Tutorial

Beaulah wants to welcome

you to our home with

two new of her witchy friends.

These adorable witches with

their legs peeking out of

their fluffy petticoats

are here to greet you as you

enter our Halloween fun home.

These girls are just some of

the fanciest friends

that Beaulah has.

All fluffy and pretty and

ready to party.

Start with a small metal wreath form.

I got mine at Wal Mart for $1.77.

Then I chose three colors of 21 inch

Deco Mesh.  These were $4.77 a roll at

Wal Mart and there was enough to

make two petticoat wreaths.

I laid all three colors out on top

of each other so I could cut three

at once.  Cut into 12 inch wide

strips.

Cut 12 sets of 3 so that you have a

total of 36 lengths.

Roll each strip up and stack them

then twist them together with half

of a pipe cleaner.

Wire them onto the back of the

wire wreath.  I did two on each

of the six crossbars.  

When all of the tubes of mesh

are wired on, tie a ribbon across

the back of the wreath form.  This

will be where you tie your legs on.

Cut three to five sets of three ribons,

21 inches long, then wire them

together with half of a pipe cleaner.

Tuck the ribbons down through the

mesh rolls and wire each bunch

onto the wreath form.  I did one

on top, one on each side and after

putting on the girls' legs, I added

one set behind their legs.

We already had two sets of witchy

legs that I had from years past

which I had purchased from 

Tuesday Morning.  I searched

everywhere and found more 

at Gardner Village in SLC

but you could sew your own or

borrow a set from one of your

witch decorations.

Beaulah says that was the fastest and

easiest Halloween decor ever!!

It took 45 minutes to make a wreath.

She is loving their fluffy skirts and wants 

to have a wardrobe change with

petticoats like theirs!!

Hope you enjoy our fun, flirty

door wreaths that welcome

you into our Halloween Home.
