Fourth of July Wreath.

Today we are making this adorable paper wreath for the 4th of July.  First you need to gather up a few supplies.
Cut your paper into 2 inch strips... they can be larger or smaller, depending on what size rosette you want.  Score the paper all the way across in half inch increments.

Now we are ready to get the glue gun out.  Hot glue your 2 strips together...

and voila, you have your finished rosette.  Make a whole bunch and arrange them on your wreath.  Before you glue them on wrap your wreath in red ribbon.



Stand back and enjoy your finished paper wreath.  I have mine on my mantle with a vintage toy horse i bought at an estate sale.  Darn cute right?

    Jenni, that is so darn cute!!! All your pictures look really good and the instructions seem very clear--not that I could do it even with all this, j/k ;)))

    You make it look so easy, I might actually try but with no hope that it comes out like yours (need some private lessons). Need a wreath for my front door.
