Yesterday, while watching Conference, I started working on a book wreath. It was super easy and a good way to keep my hands busy while listening to inspired words.
I went to The Dollar Tree and bought a 10" wreath form and a dictionary to rip apart.
Kenners snapped this, albeit, blurry pic while I was hard at work.
(Like my shirt? It says "Women for Linda")
Here's my progress after 2 hours of hot gluing and rolling up pages.
And here it is completed and hanging in my kitchen. Wouldn't it be fun to make a wreath for your kitchen using a recipe book? Hmmmmmmm.
I'm also thinking this might be a fun teacher gift idea. And for a total of $2 I think it might be the most unique and cost effective gift ever!

Awesome wreath! I've got a Dollar Tree wreath I bought a couple of months ago and never got around to doing anything with. Maybe I'll finally turn it into something pretty! I love yours!
super cute!
and it fits perfectly in that spot.
Your wreath looks great, it's got that whole Pottery Barn vibe going on.
Gotta like a good Dollar Tree project! Very cute.
So ADORABLE! Funny, because my friend Avey and I are going to make something like this too. I haven't decided whether to poetry, maps, or musical paper. Isn't it so great as a mother, to actually complete a project? We have so many things we do, like laundry, and meals, and errands that become invisible the next day. Important things, yes. But to actually create something is fulfilling. I think that's why women create, in many regards. To have something we can SEE more immediately. Love it, and am so proud of you.
It looks great! I like how it compliments your old skool phone.
So cool! I love it! I might have to try my hand at it...Although I don't know that I have the patience to spend all that time gluing and rolling. It looks fabulous in your kitchen!!!
