Deco Flex Tubing


I wanted to introduce everyone to a new Deco Mesh product that we're carrying in our Ben Franklin stores right now, called Deco Flex Tubing. It's essentially a tube made of Deco Mesh that you can use by itself or in your favorite decorating proejcts. The picture above is the gold tubing looped over on itself a few times and tied in the center to make a super easy bow.


The tubing is also a lot of fun to use in decor like wreaths or Christmas trees. Here's another example of the gold tubing used in a Masquerade themed wreath. I kept this one pretty simple with just a few small loops.



Our stores also carry the tubing in a few different colors like silver, gold, red, pink, and green. Here's a picture of the green tubing used in another wreath. I went a little wild and made really big loops with the tubing on this one.

If you want more detailed instructions on how to make the wreath itself, you can check out these previous blog posts:



I'm sure we're going to be seeing more projects incorporating our Deco Flex Tubing because it's pretty fun to work with and it's perfect for the upcoming Holiday season.

Thanks for stopping in!
