Homemade Christmas Wreath out of Recycled Materials

I came across this lovely craft idea for making a gorgeous wreath using repurposed centers from toilet paper, wrapping paper or paper towel cardboard rolls.

You’ll need:
green acrylic paints
Red acrylic paint
cardboard tubes
sharp scissors
glue

Paint the tubes green and let them dry. Cut them into 3/4″ wide strips, flatten them to give them a seam like a flower petal and glue them together in groups of 5 to form flowers. Once you get that done, form them into a wreath and glue them together to form a large circle.

Form a smaller circle, gluing the flowers together and then stack them onto the larger circle, making layers. Glue small red beads in clusters of 3 throughout the wreath to look like holly berries

That’s it! Very easy, yet elegant.

  1. My daughter has been saving TP and paper towel rolls for a while now because she just knew there had to be a use for them. I can’t wait to show her this craft!!
