Christmas wreath with paper and cardboard

The crafts which use recycled materials or those that once we no longer use can take and recycle are one of my favorites. If we add christmas this, we have a range of economic ideas and caring our planet we can do. Today's idea is, following the inspiration of previous ideas, make a Christmas wreath using cardboard and paper.

We need these materials:

Thin cardboard.
Wood paper, or colored.
Scissors.
Pencil and ruler.
Glue.

The size of the crown is something we must decide each, but that size will depend on the size of the pieces of paper.

To begin this work, we should mark on the thin cardboard base our crown. Cutting a large circle in the middle and leaving you the classic form of the crown.

With that done, we can take the brown paper and cut squares of paper to make the rolls. If you do not want to use wood paper can be colored paper, colored cartiluna and even wrapping paper.

They do the same thing in the craft of book-leaf star . We take each piece, roll up and stick. We collected all the pieces in a bowl and when we have finished we started to hit on the cardboard.

It's good to start from the outer edges inwards. So to cover the entire surface. We can add a ribbon for hanging and to combine different colored papers.


It's a great and green idea!
