Ruffle Wreath
I think I'm the last crafter on the planet that hasn't jumped on the coffee filter wreath bandwagon.
The Nester made this gorgeous wreath.
Then Kimba at A Soft Place to Land made this one with natural coffee filters.
Fashionably late, I'm on the bandwagon now but with a twist. I made mine into ruffles. I started by folding my coffee filters in half, then half again. I guess this would be quarters, right?
I hot glued the first one down then I started hot gluing them about 3/4" up from the last.
It is kind of hard to work around a circle, but just keep going. It'll work out.
I looped a wide grosgrain ribbon around the wreath form so I didn't squash any of the ruffles.
If you haven't made a filter wreath yet, try this one. It's easy peasy and takes way less time than the other versions!
Check out the link parties where I'm sharing this week!
Oooh, I love this idea! I think I could do this one and it doesn't take all weekend! Thanks for sharing it.
That was the appeal for me too, Vickie! I'm way to ADD for a project that takes 3 hours.
Looks great. I want to make a wreath but got no time. Your wreath looks great and looks like it would take no time at all.
Wow! Love it! Wreaths are my addiction! I would love you to link up to my party on Fridays! This would be such a hit!
