Coffee Filter Christmas Wreath

December 7, 2011, In: For The Seasons, Projects

I love all things fluffy and white- especially at Christmas time! So here’s how I made a very budget friendly version of this $65 wreath:

My version… $1.25, and infinitely fluffier! Here’s how to make this cute little coffee filter Christmas wreath.

Could I have purchased a styrofoam wreath? Of course… But instead, I lazily used what I had on hand and regretted my decision half way through the cutting!

Now that I had the base for my wreath I turned to one of my favorite texture-creators: Coffee Filters.

Just twist the bottom of the filter to make a “flower,” and use hot glue to hold it in place

Not impressive at first, but it will come together!

Filter flower after filter flower, it is starting to look like a wreath!
