  • This wreath is made from coffee filters, ribbon, a large green poinsettia, and gold and silver glitter spray.

This is my version of the coffee filter wreaths that are popular now. I made it for my Mother's door at Christmas.

I added an extra large ribbon and sprayed it lightly with silver and gold glitter.
