Spring Book Page Wreaths DIY

Good Morning ! Hope you had a great weekend !
Yesterday my daughter and I decided to make more book page wreaths , this time for spring ! If you missed them we made book page tree toppers and wreaths ..Lots of them ! If you need instructions on how to make the book page wreath they are here ..We use cardboard for the base of ours...( its free if you have an old box :)

So we made the wreath , and after we got two layers plus filled in any empty spots , we cut a circle of cardboard and glued it to the middle to layer our flowers on.

I got this burlap at Michaels that is laminated so its stiffer and doesn't ravel.. we just cut flower shapes and made these little rolled roses out of strips of paper .. Just cut your book page into about 3 strips longways, crinkle and fold it , then start rolling tightly ..hot gluing as you go..

I used 4 strips to make this size rose. Then glue the book page rose to the cut out flower burlap shape , and glue to the cuircle of cardboard.

My daughter decided she wanted coffee filters behind her burlap, these are unbleached coffee filters, and we just crunkled up the bottom stapled it and glued the burlap and paper rose to the top.

Aren't they just fabulous and almost FREE !

Mine is hanging in the dining room window from a piece of burlap, hers is going on her bedroom wall..

Last night I started the process of changing over from winter to spring decorations....Even though more snow is expected today , I am just ready for a change! Hope to be back later this week to show you some spring changes !
Thanks so much for stopping by !
