"P" is for Paper Wreath

Craft: rolled paper wreath

Old book pages rolled into cones and applied to a frame create this Fall wreath.

Yes I’m a bit early for Halloween!

The ends of the paper rolls are coated with a black and dark purple glitter mix:

The center banner is simple cardstock with glitter sticker letters:

The paper rolls really create a lot of volume:

Here’s how I made the paper wreath:

1. Obtain a plastic frame, mine has an 8″ x 10″ opening in the center.

Cover the outer edge of the frame with a strip of drop cloth or neutral fabric.

2. Make paper rolls:

I used old book pages torn into little rectangles about 2″ x 3″.

Roll into cone shape and hot glue:

3. Hot glue rolls to frame starting in corners and then equally spacing as you go:

4. One layer on, now add a second layer in the same fashion to cover remaining frame bits showing through:

5. Apply glue straight from bottle to edges of paper then sprinkle glitter over glue:

Add ribbon and banner:
