Last night, my latest craft project made its debut.
This is probably one of my easiest projects so far, and it was pretty inexpensive!
All you need is:
a wreath form - $2 at Hobby Lobby with 50% off sale
two packs of coffee filters - $4 (a lot of tutorials only used 1 pack, but I ended up needing two)
hot glue gun (low temp)
glue sticks
There are a TON of these wreaths all over blogland. I read a few tutorials, but the steps are pretty simple. For me, I folded the coffee filters in quarters and then glued them randomly to the wreath form.
I wanted it to be really full, so I just glued them as close to each other as possible.
I think the only downfall to this project is that it takes time. Over the course of 4 or 5 hours of the Man playing Assasin's Creed, I managed to glue around 400 filters. I'm pretty happy with the finished wreath.
Not to shabby for a $6 investment.
