Ideas For DIY
Crafters are getting more and more creative in how they recycle old CDs and DVDs. Take this project as an example. Who would have thought to use old CDs to create a whimsical little photo book! I love the idea and CDs are solid and sturdy, so this project should last a long time. Check it out here — JenTapler Designs: My “Green” Mini Album.
I recently came across the “Forty-Five Minute White Wreath” craft from My 100 Year Old Home, and let me tell you, it’s such a simple yet stunning DIY project. The beauty of this wreath is how quickly you can pull it together—just 45 minutes—and the results are honestly impressive.
What I love about this project is how easy it is to gather the materials. You don’t need anything fancy—just basic items like paper lunch bags and a straw wreath, along with a hot glue gun. And once you start gluing on the little paper flowers, the wreath starts coming together beautifully. It’s a perfect craft if you’re looking for something quick, budget-friendly, and elegant at the same time.
The wreath itself has this chic, timeless look to it, which makes it versatile for all kinds of occasions, whether you’re decorating for the holidays, a special event, or just adding a bit of charm to your home. It’s such a lovely way to incorporate simple materials into something that looks more intricate and expensive than it actually is.
I highly recommend this project. It’s easy to do, doesn’t take up much time, and the finished product is a beautiful addition to any space. If you’re someone who enjoys creating homemade décor without spending hours on it, this wreath is a winner!
