Things Needed. . .
- Wreath, any size you want. {I used a wicker 8 inch wreath at the dollar store}
- Black scrap fabric
- Old Book {$2 D.I. find}
- Old Frame {$5 D.I. find}
- White scrap fabrick
- Black Bird {Dollar Store}
- Hot glue gun
2. Draw a swirl on pages and then cut. {I cut about 5 pages at a time}
3.Roll and hot glue little by little,
4. Then place book rosettes strategical on the fabric cover wreath
{I used different sizes to give it a little variety}
Once you have all of the book rosettes placed,
5. Center the black bird on the wreath
6. Now paint your frame black
{I only added one coat because I wanted it to still have a rustic old look}
7. For the fabric to hang the wreath I just ripped about 4" X 24" piece of fabric
{I ripped it for a more shappy old look}
8. Then I made up some tea and let the white fabric soak for about 45 min
Once frame and fabric are dry then
9. Hang the wreath from the frame
10. When the wreath was finally hung, I distressed the fabric a little more with these ink padsAnd . . . you have an amazing Halloween Wreath
{Happy Halloween Crafting}
