Book Page Wreath
I am loving all of the projects using book pages that are showing up everywhere! I found a great tutorial at Makely Home for Girls blog. A trip to Habitat ReStore for some old paperbacks and a wreath form and I was set. My paperback book was really old and yellowed - just the way I wanted it to be! You really need a flat wreath form (in my opinion) for this to work properly and LOTS of glue sticks!! And I mean LOTS! But the most important item you need is a good ole #2 pencil so you don't burn your fingers like I did! I had blisters because I kept touching the same spots. Live and learn!

found you via nifty thrifty tuesdays! I made a wreath for my front door with this same idea and it does INDEED take a LOT of glue sticks. I surely wish I had thought of the pencil because I got a nasty blister on my finger!! But I loved how the wreath turned out. Definitely a flat form is needed. Mine is posted here:
