I was excited to make a recycled cardboard wreath! My candy-cane wreath is getting old so it is time for a new one. I never really cared much for wreaths until I made that one, but now I kind of enjoy seeing something colorful on my door when I come home. I am easily amused.
So, for this craft you will need a bunch of cardboard rolls. I think I used 12? I’ve been planning to make this wreath for a few weeks now, so I have been saving.
Things You Will Need:
Paint
Newspaper
Hot glue gun
Paint brushes
cardboard rolls
Maybe some paper towels
Step 1:
Cut your toilet paper rolls so the cuts are about 1/2″ wide. You should get about 5 pieces per roll.
Step 2:
Paint the inside of the cardboard roll. Let it dry.
Step 3:
Paint the outside of the cardboard roll. Let it dry.
Step 4:
Glue the cardboard petals together to look like a flower. Similar to the above photo.
Step 5:
Glue the flowers together and possibly add on a few extra petals to make everything look a bit more even.
Step 6:
Add some ribbon for show!
This wreath is great for summer 🙂 I know it isn’t quite summer yet but I’m hopeful.
