Getting into the holiday spirit is so much about finding out about new and interesting crafting ideas. How else would our families and friends receive such great gifts? Right?
For a while now, I have been wanting to do a wreath made out of paper.
Some have done it with old books or sheet music....even the phone book.
While doing some research, I picked some favorite sites that I am using as resources.
I like the YouTube video, "How to Make a Door Wreath from Antique Books" by Jenna DeAngeles.
Informative, and fun....in fact, you can pass a lot of time watching all the different YouTube videos on this subject while rolling all your pages!

Nesting Place
Nesting place blog had a cool link party, "You Made a Wreath Out of What?" The wreath above was made out of pages from an old book.

Funky Junk Interiors
A link from the party, to Funky Junk Interiors, led to a gorgeous, layered wreath made from sheet music.
So lately, while out junking, I have been trying to be on the look out for different paper items that would work for a wreath.

I found a Sears Fall 1900 mini catalog reprint made in the 70's.

I thought the images might make a great vintage looking wreath.
I also found an old atlas with great colors.

So I'm gonna see what I can come up with and hopefully I can show some good lookin' results later on. Wish me crafty luck!![]()
