Pinterest Project Week- Wrapping Paper Wreath

This week is all about actually completing some projects I’ve pinned on Pinterest.  I’ve dubbed it “Pinterest Project Week”.  Don’t forget, I’m hosting my first linky party on Friday for any Pinterest inspiration projects you want to share!

I have been collecting a lot of Christmas inspiration on my Pinterest board- “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree”. I plan to do a white and natural Christmas theme and I have been finding so many great ideas.

One of them was this wreath-

I love the look of it but wasn’t so crazy about the red.  I knew I had some pretty paper that looked similar so I decided to make my own wreath using this tutorial from the original pin. Here is how mine turned out!

It was time consuming but I think it was worth it in the end.  I had planned to use it for Christmas decoration but I hung it above our sink and it just feels that empty space so well I might just leave it there all the time (or at least until I get something else to put there)  I think I might just add a bow to it for Christmas.

The paper I used was from the dollar store and I cut out a wreath shape from poster board as the base.  In total it probably cost about $1.50 to make. 

Have you been working on projects this week?  Can’t wait to see them on Friday at the linky party!
