Simple Coffee Filter Wreath
2 Materials
I created this wreath to hang on our new cathedral mirror that is above our console table. I wanted something neutral and clean... I decided a coffee filter wreath would be perfect!
These wreaths have been done many times, but this is the first one I've made and I'll be sharing the instructions below.
I love the texture this wreath adds and you'd never think it is just hundreds of coffee filters glued to a wreath form!
How to Create a Simple Coffee Filter Wreath:
The supplies for this craft are basic, you just need a 12" flat wreath form, ribbon and coffee filters. I used 400 coffee filters for this wreath!
Tie your ribbon around the wreath form, make it long enough to be a hanger.
The next two photos show you how to fold each coffee filter.
Basically, you fold it in half three times.
Fold the tip to make a point. This point is what you'll hot glue to the wreath form.
Then, hot glue each individual coffee filter down one by one in the same direction.
I think it took me 4-5 hours to make this entire wreath. I broke it up and worked on it an hour a day. It isn't hard, just time consuming.
Here is the wreath in the room, you'll see I have my console table decorated for the Spring!
Just a gorgeous detail shot of the wreath. This wreath is really easy to make, just a little time consuming... but, worth it!

Have a question about this project?
Could you spray paint the filters lightly after glued? Like a light pink? Or maybe the spray adhesive with glitter?
