Jennifer from TaterTots & Jello makes THE coolest wreaths,
remember the Christmas Marshmallow Wreath? I’m still swooing over that one.

This delicate heart garland from Oh So Crafty is perfect for recycling old catalogs and magazines

If you don’t sew, you could apply the same principles form the garland above and make this paper heart window display

DIY Paper Plate Bow Wreaths

by Stacy on December 6, 2009

I’ve been doing a Christmas related activity with my children every afternoon and I have high hopes to keep the fun going all month long. The results have been so much more wonderful than I could have ever imagined and I’m certain I’ll make this an annual event.

On 2 Dec, our activity was making a DIY Bow Wreath from paper plates – so simple, yet so stunning – I have big plans for these beauties in my home this year.

To assemble:
~ Fold a Paper Plate in half
~ Cut out the center
~ Attach a piece of ribbon, yarn or string to the back to act as a hanger
~ Let your kids peel and stick bows in any which way they choose
~ Use a stapler to permanently attach the bows so you can enjoy this jewel for years to come
~ Enjoy!
