Cupcake Wrapper Wreath Tutorial

Now that Spring is officially almost here, it was time for me to update my front entry for the season. 

I left the flowers and the glass vase filled with boxes from my Valentine's Day vignette.
I still love it and I figured it would work well with this vignette too.

I started by making paper boxes out of patterned scrapbook paper in pastel colors 

and then added the word SPRING.  

There is actually an egg-shaped cut out of another scrapbook paper behind each letter (which you can barely see in this photo).  The letters are actually vinyl puffy letters meant to go on the walls, but I decided to use them here (I'm such a rebel...lol).  

You can check out how to make these boxes here in a video tutorial I did a few months ago.

As for the wreath, I bought the supplies weeks ago when I was walking around AC Moore trying to come up with an idea for a wreath for Spring/Easter.  

When I saw these pastel colored cupcake wrappers, I knew what I wanted to do. 

 I bought a small styrofoam wreath, straight pins and two packages of wrappers.

All I did was pin each wrapper to the front of the wreath, smushing them together as I went along.  I did keep a pattern of pink, green, yellow...but you could have a random pattern as well.

After completing the face of the wreath, 

I did the same thing along the outside rim and then the inside rim.

In no time at all the wreath was complete.  

I added a sheer lavender bow at the top and hung it with a sheer pink ribbon.

There you have it...my entryway all gussied up for Spring.

Can't wait to hear what you think.
