Without seeing your mesh---- There is a "new" product called mesh that is glorified burlap, but not natural cotton like burlap. It is called mesh. Comes on rolls and is available at some party stores. Cut in squares, scrunch middle tie with a chennile(pipe cleaner) and tie to a wreath form. Makes a great showy wreath. I'm a retired florist. This product was available many years ago and did not catch on. What is old is new again with great new colors. Let me know how it works,
