I did it! After much futzing around, (far more than was needed, really) I sat down and made myself a paper Christmas wreath. I used three sheets of scrapbooking paper, a piece of cardboard, a stapler and a bit of ribbon. A large soup bowl made a great outside edge for the wreath, and I cut my leaves approximately 10cm long. I cut something like 60 leaves, and had a fair bit left over at the end.
All in all, a fun little project, easy to do with things on hand, well worth a try! This one hangs in my kitchen, but it would be fabulous anywhere you need a little Christmas pick-me-up, and it is light enough to hang pretty much anywhere relatively dry. Do you need a bit of Christmas cheer anywhere?
Cute!

Thank you for dropping by my blog especially as I have been such a bad blogger recently :(

I love it!! We have "Christmas craft" in the advent calendar for tomorrow... Was planning one with glitter and glue, but if I prep this one enough it might be a good (and cleaner) one to work on together.
