Do you guys remember the bird book that I made a few months ago?
When I cut the circle out
I was left with a ton of book page circles that looked like this.
I kept them because I knew I could use them one day.
Well, that day came, and I made this book page wreath with them.
I started out with a foam wreath and my circles and a lot of hot glue
I folded each of the circles into a triangle like this
Then I glued them on around the wreath
And this is the finished project.
I think it turned out pretty cute.

That is really cute!! My husband is always teasing me because I keep little scraps "because I'm going to use them some day". Most of the time I do!! Sometimes I end up forgetting about it tho..

Love the look! How smart of you to save the circles...
adorable! how long did it take?
It's gorgeous! love it!
This is way cute! Good for you for figuring out something fun to do with your "leftovers."
Something like this would be perfect for my wreath display that I'm trying out this year. Thanks for sharing!
if you crinkle the edges and rub distressing ink, it makes a cool dark/aged edge too!
I am in love with this wreath. This is an amazing idea and has such visual impact. I am stumbling this post. I am a new FB follower from While He Was Napping. Vicky from Mess For Less

What a lovey combination: a wreath (one of my favourite things) made from book pages (another of my favourite things).
