Wreath for the season

Most people may think of wreaths around the holidays, but I have always loved them all year long. And wanted to make one this time round. Here is a simple, inexpensive way to make a wreath from PAPER!!! (adapted from Living with Lindsey's blog & http://youtu.be/HnfjBxNIfcY ). I loved the way it looked, almost like something out of a Pottery Barn catalog.

This one is made from Local (yellow pages). I started with a 12" cardboard, loads of rolled cones of yellow pages and glue (fevicol)!

This picture above is the half way point.... 

(There's more than one way to roll a cone and my favorite way was discovered through trial and error. Plus, I liked folding the cones the same way throughout the wreath)

Finally after filling the complete wreath with these cones, I spray painted it with gold and left it to dry. Meanwhile, I cut a cardboard in a shape of a donut and covered it tightly with a yarn to form the center piece of the wreath. Lastly, I decorated it with a pieces of a birdie!!!

All that’s left to do now is to find a spot to hang my new creation!

There you go! Perfectly fits with our black shelf in our lounge! I hope you can try this easy project.
Merry Christmas & Happy New year to all of you!!
