Last week I referred to
Ruffles & Ric Rac and Aly's amazing
paper wreath project. I loved her post so much that I promised myself I'd get around to making a similar paper wreath for our house.
I'm seriously a nut job when it comes to decorating for the holidays, but for whatever reason, I don't have many spring or Easter decorations. So I took a trip down to the craft store, picked up a few sheets of pastel paper, a bottle of glue and some white ribbon and a few hours later... ta da! The finished product:

A peek into the "careful organization" that accompanies many of my art projects. |

Paper rosettes are harder to make than I thought.
I have much more respect for the art of origami now. |

Final touch: white ribbon. It does seem to give it a little extra "oomph." |
It turned out ADORABLE! I can tell you took the time to make each one of those just perfect! Thanks for linking back.
