Paper Joy

A holiday decorating idea to pass along to you... paper wreaths. We have been getting so many compliments lately on our wreath by the front door and skirt on the mannequin!! I wanted to share with you...

and you can do it too with books for only $1.00 at The Flea.

Many pages were torn out of our lawyers books.. (I know some of you don't like to ruin a good book but these are LAW books we're talking about) They were then rolled up and the ends were stapled to a piece of thick cardstock in a circle pattern. Layering as you go. These were are inspirations...

This last one is from an Etsy artist called SimpleJoysPaperie. Her wreaths are truley amazing and start at $50.

Want to make ornaments instead of wreaths?? Here is a great tutorial that my pal Jenni found from ColorFlyStudio. Happy Crafting!!
