NOTE:  No innocent books was harmed in the making of this wreath.

I was in the mood to create a wreath for the library I volunteer at and was limited in resources to do so. There were some damaged paper back books that were about to be tossed in the trash. Don’t use books that are still in good condition, look for ones that the pages are falling out of the binding.

I had seen a wreath once before made out of book pages and thought I would try to craft one.

Tah-dah!!

It took about 4-5 hours to make it.

I painted the book pages while they were still intact.  Did a red trim for the holidays.

Once the paint is dry, tear out the pages, roll them in various ways then hot glue to a foam wreath form.  I just need to add an accent ribbon from the top and it’s ready to hang.
