DIY Fall Wreath With Egg Carton / Home Decor Craft on a Budget
This stunning Fall Farmhouse wreath is made in just under an hour !! Its unbelievably easy and nearly all the materials can be found in the house. Acrylic paint would be the ideal medium to paint the egg tray cups. It would be even more fun if you could get the kids involved in it as well.
Prepare the Base.
In order to prepare the base of the wreath :
Cut a circle shape out of a double corrugate cardboard.
Cut an inner circle as well.
Wrap long strips of a brown paper bag around the base circle.
Cut leaf shapes from brown wrapping paper and adhere it to the wreath in between some spaces.
Cut egg carton in flower shape and paint them in 3 - 4 fall acrylic colors
Once its dried. Hot glue them to the wreath, alternating the colors in a pattern.
You can now add buttons of various colors in the center of the flowers, with hot glue.
Voila, your beautiful and recycled fall wreath is ready to be hung.
