Who knew you could make something so pretty from a simple pack of paper? Haeley from Design Improvised took a Full Color Spectrum Paper Pack and used a paper trimmer and scissors to create evenly sized strips. She folded each loop in half and stapled them together for a whopping 120 loops. She then applied them all to a foam wreath form covered in burlap ribbon using a hot glue gun and glue. One finished, she hung with some leftover burlap ribbon.

This felt leaf wreath by Magdalena from Mama is Dreaming uses a round picture frame as the base. She inserted a free printable quote into the frame.
