DIYC: Cupcake Liner Valentines Day Wreath

Kicking off this “Month O’ Love” we thought we would share with you a super easy, really inexpensive Do It Yourself wreath!

I needed something for my front door to make it a little festive for Valentines. It’s been a little naked since taking down the Christmas Wreath. I don’t like to pay a lot for these little holidays so I decided to make one on my own… For less than $5!  It’s easy peasy and you can do it too! The texture of the cupcake liners make for a beautiful whimsical decoration for your front door or anywhere in your house

What you need:

– Approximately 100 Cupcake liners – Valentine Themed. (My front door is red so I went with pink and white)

– Coordinating Ribbon

– Heart Shaped board (I bought one for less than $2 at Hobby Lobby, it’s a lightweight wood in the Valentine section)

– Hot glue/Glue Gun

What you Do:

– Scrunch your cupcake liners up from the bottom like little flowers
– Hot glue it on to your board working in small sections

– Once you are finished gluing on your liners, use your ribbon to make a large loop (measured to the desired length for your door) Hot glue the ends on the back of the heart board and let dry.

Extra Steps/Alternatives:

– Paint your board so the edges are pretty
– Use more than one pattern, don’t be afraid to mix it up or add in some solids
– Use a foam wreath (from the dollar store) wrapped in ribbon in place of the board

That’s It! In and out for less than 5 bucks and about 30 minutes! You can even get the kids involved by letting them help bunch up the liners. (Caution: This might make your 30 minute craft into more like an hour craft)
