Christmas wreath

Happy 1st Advent folks!

While my German friends enjoyed the first snow we are sweating at 35 degrees and the thought of
a candle wreath on the table wasn't that appealing to me.

Instead I made a flower power wreath inspired by the amazingly creative guys from prints charming.
I attended their workshop two weeks ago and managed to just finished my cardboard/paper flowers
just in time for the 1st Advent.


My finished paper flower wreath.

Cardboard of all sorts, hot glue gun, paint and twigs is all you need.


A bundle of twigs is getting recycled.

Start with laying out the twigs first and hot glue together.

Beautiful creations by prints charming using recycled cardboard packaging.

  1. I love your choice of colours for the cardboard flowers - very non-traditional but summery and Australian. Well done.

  3. Thank you Food Sage for your lovely comment. The only problem with the wreath is how to store it away after Christmas.
