Hey there! Welcome to day 3 of Home Decor Week. I've hope you've been inspired by some of the projects I've shared. I'm always inspired as I browse the interenet for home decor ideas and inspiration. A couple times a week I'll head over to my favorite blogs and see what other crafters are making. Pinterest of course if one of my favorite places to look, but here are a few other blogs I visit regularly for DIY and home decor ideas:
one pretty thing
tatertots and jello
eighteen25
lemontree creations
the crafting chicks
martha stewart crafts
It can be addicting just looking for ideas, and sometimes I have to remind myself that I'm collecting ideas to actually create something, LOL! Anyway, on to today's project.
Project # 3: Paper Wreath
The concept is very simple, but this project is a bit more time consuming than the others I've shared. But once you've cut all your 2x3 inch paper strips (I think I used about 50 blocks of cardstock and double sided Jillibean Soup patterned paper) turn on your favorite DVD and you'll be done before the movie is. The base of this wreath is just a 12 inch wood wreath form from Michael's (40% off coupon, yeah baby!) First I covered the inside of the wood wreath form with paper blocks, keeping them all at the same 45 degree angle. Then I did a second layer at the same angle going around the outside of the circle. Then I covered the top of those layers with a ring of paper blocks, using double stacked pop dots for dimension. Last I added some embellishments on top. You could make one of these for any occasion or holiday. Fun!
Here are a few other paper wreaths you may want to try, too!
Well, that's all for today. Don't forget to come back tomorrow for give.away.day.!
