How to Make an Old Book Page Wreath

Begin by using a circle (hoop or similar) to trace and measure a wreath shape onto cardboard.

Cut out the cardboard wreath and set it aside.

Now, fold an old book page in half, then cut it.

Then, fold each half in half again and cut through the folds, creating 4 strips of book paper.

Fold your paper back and forth accordion style starting at the bottom of the vertical strip and working your way upward.

Do this with all of your papers.

Now, you will unfurl the paper, leaving the creases in place.

Twist your paper into a half circle and glue it in place.

You will then glue those half circles together on the ends and lay them "flat" to form a circle that looks like a fan.

Next, you will glue the sides together to complete the circle.

Glue these onto your wreath form in the pattern you prefer, making sure to cover all of the cardboard.

Glue a button into the center of each circle.

Lastly, you will cut and glue a loop of twine onto the back of the wreath for hanging.

Now you can hang your wreath on your door
