Directions

  2. After numbering the branches, separate them.
  3. Gather the end of the deco mesh, place it between 2 branches on the inner ring of the wreath form and secure it with them.
  4. Pull 15-20 inches of the deco mesh, make a loop, and then secure it with the next branches on the ring.
  5. Repeat the process to make more loops. Attach the mesh to the inner ring and outer ring.
  6. Spread out the loops to make the wreath look full.
  7. Attach the burlap mesh randomly to make the wreath look fuller.

Embellish Your Home with Patriotic Decorations This Year

On Memorial Day, the graves of fallen soldiers are decorated with stars. Reflect that in your home and decorate it with stars and stripes. You can also fly a flag at half-staff from sunrise until noon. Teach your children the words to some of the nation’s best songs and sing them together. To complete the weekend beautifully, make a dessert with an American theme.

Memorial Day means more than adorning your porch with red, white, and blue decor objects. Spend the extra day off honoring our country’s many fallen heroes and make it memorable.
