fall-inspired book page wreath
I love crafting with items I already have.
This beautiful fall-inspired book page wreath is perfect for my home decor!
Book pages are just the right thickness to use on projects as this.
I want to add that the book I am using was already falling apart and in disarray.
I would not be able to live with myself if I destroyed a book on purpose.
Books are becoming extinct in this digital age…sad! 🥺
You might see how I made my fall-inspired book page and brown paper leaf garland.
It matches this wreath perfectly!
I am loving the neutral fall colors this year!
First, I made a template out of cardstock to trace my leaves on the book page paper.
I used plastic leaves I already had from a fall garland.
You can also use real leaves from your yard to make a pattern! Win!
I used Elmer’s glue to add glitter around the edges of my leaves.
It made the leaves pop, and I think it will add just enough sparkle to the wreath!
Disclaimer: Only use glitter if you don’t mind wearing it, eating it and getting it into your eyes for all eternity from this day forward! 🤣
I used two shapes to add something extra, which is perfect because I have been called “extra” most of my life! Ha!
I added faux acorns and fall berries to my wreath.
The colors go well with the glitter!
Laying out the desired design.
Unfortunately, I was so excited to glue that I forgot to take pictures of the process.
I used hot glue on the low setting to attach the leaves to the grapevine frame.
You could probably use a high setting to do this.
You won’t get as many glue strings if you do. 😉
I would not use a styrofoam wreath blank for this project because the glue will melt your frame.
And here is the finished piece.
I think it turned out absolutely amazing!
Plus it was super easy and inexpensive to make! Yay!
