DIY: Book wreath

When I find a DIY project that I absolutely LOVE, I obsess over it and have to do it immediately, lol. So when I stumbled on this book wreath tutorial last night in bed, I knew I HAD to make a trip to the Dollar Tree today. This project cost all of $1 (for the foam craft wreath) since I already had lots of hot glue sticks and an old book from MOPS that I was just going to recycle.

You'll notice that my book wreath looks NOTHING like the one in the tutorial, because I did my folding differently and affixed my scrolls differently, but I actually like the way mine turned out even better than the one in the tutorial. It is HUGE, and looks perfect in our downstairs half bath, which I've been struggling to decorate for over 6 months now, lol.

I won't lie...I'm in LOVE with it. Can you love a wreath? It's exactly my style--crisp lines, white and black, makes a statement all by itself.

PS--I also made a lovely autumn flower and leaf wreath for $3, and I can't wait to hang it on our front door, but I forgot to take a pic--oops! Maybe once I get it hung...
