Crayon Wreath - Inspired by Pinterest!
Okay, so I am officially addicted to Pinterest! I didn't quite understand what the hype was when everyone was talking about it on their blogs - but now I totally "get it." I found the cutest wreath made from crayons on the site (click here) and attempted to make it on this rainy day. I bought a foam wreath from AC Moore. Then I took my son's old Hulk costume that he grew out of and wrapped it around the foam, using the hot glue gun as I went. Then I used the hot glue gun again to glue on the crayons. Finally, I added the checkered bow to hang. I plan to hang it on my classroom door. My son actually wants to make one for his new teacher this year... maybe a Winter holiday gift??? Very easy to do - and that's coming from someone who does not make crafts a lot!!!

I've been wanting to make that one, too! Good job! And I was also thinking what a lovely gift idea it would make!

ReplyDeleteMy aunt (who was a teacher) made this wreath for me when I first started teaching - 17 years ago!
Thanks for the memory!
