I saw this over at Living with Lindsay and just loved it, so I picked up a crappy paperback at the library book sale to make it with.
I tried to pick a book I would enjoy reading before I ripped it up, but it was just the dumbest book I've seen in a long time. I won't even tell you what it was in case you're a fan of the author. She certainly has a lot of books out there!
Little Princess helped by rolling pages and folding the ends to prepare them for the hot glue. After a while I was letting her use the glue gun because I was tired of burning my own fingers.
Just kidding!
I was burning my fingers while attaching the pages to the wreath until I started using a pencil as Lindsay recommends. LP did a great job and didn't burn herself.
The wreath now hangs in the library which I think is a very appropriate location.
It's absolutely beautiful - thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to try that too! Yours turned out great.
ReplyDeleteI too read Lindsay's idea on my google reader (wink) while I was away. You did a GREAT job on this wreath Sara, terrific. Congratulations too to your daughter on running her marathon. I want to do that someday. :) maybe...
