Isn’t this a fun way to use a cool but broken vintage book? I love how it turned out, and it didn’t take very long at all. All the materials I had to buy for this craft cost me about $2 (wire wreath frame). I used a few retired Christmas ornaments, and a piece of an old garland, and there you have it! Something new and fun for this Christmas. I have a few more of these silly type things, but they aren’t done yet, so I can’t show you. But I will tell you this much : Blaire does not like finger painting.
I love it! I have seen these types of wreaths done with old sheet music, but not with a vintage book. I love the color that the illustrations bring to it. This is great! I just might have to try it. I have some broken vintage readers that would work. Can’t wait to see what else you have in the works.
Oh heavens, that’s lovely!
What a great idea! So cute. Thanks!
Love it!
Very cute! Would it work with old Christmas cards? I’m always looking for a way to use ones from years past that have beautiful artwork!
Love it! I’ve been drooling over one on Etsy that’s made from old music books. :}
I grew up with a similar wreath hanging on our front door – one my mom made out of Christmas cards.
I love this! Way to go!
Love book page wreaths! My sister made a fall one where she cut the pages in leaf shapes, this weekend my mom and I are working on one using our old (and falling apart anyway) Narnia books. Last year I covered ball ornaments with text and pictures from the same book set.
Yours is the first I’ve seen with colored pictures, so fun!
Oh, I love it! I love the price too! Will you share instructions? Pretty please?
What a beautiful wreath! I’m inspired 🙂
REALLY nice! (But I’m getting a security warning again.) 🙁
That is one cute wreath! Like Hannah, I’m again getting harmful files downloading themselves onto my computer when I visit Femina…
That is beautiful! I like the idea of using Christmas cards also.
Just to let you know, my browser crashed when I visited Femina.
My browser crashed too. For several months now and then I get a virus alert and then crash. Don’t visit as much as I would like anymore because of that.
The blog doesn’t give me any problems, but I have a Mac. Maybe that’s why? This is a great craft. I’ll have to remember it for next year. I hope that the site’s issue will be resolved so we can keep getting new Advent/Christmas posts!
