Paint chip wreath

 

 

Hi, I’m Holly {one half of My Sister’s Suitcase}. Nat and I are two crafty moms who just happen to be sisters! We wish we lived closer to each other, but for now we are using our blog to keep our LDCR (Long Distance Crafting Relationship) alive! I’m excited to be sharing a fun and easy spring wreath here at Craftionary today. This project was so quick and easy to make.

 

 

Here’s what you’ll need:

 

• 1/4 yard of fabric
• paint chips in various colors
• wreath form
• butterfly die-cut/paper punch
• hot glue

 

 

{1} Gather all your materials {2} Tear approx. 2″ strips of fabric (I used 4 strips) {3} Wrap strips around your wreath form, securing with hot glue {4} Die cut (or punch) butterflies out of your paint chips {5} Fold butterflies in half down the center, creating a 3-D effect  {6} Glue the butterflies to your wreath, applying the glue only in the center, on the fold. Layer them to your desired effect. You want it to look like they just landed on your wreath!

  

Here is my completed Paint Chip Wreath:

  

  

I decided to display my new wreath on the huge Magnetic Chalkboard {upcycled from an old painting!} in my dining room.

I love how it adds a pop of color and whimsy to the space!

   I am actually in the market for a cute butterfly punch. Do you mind sharing what brand butterfly punch you used for the project? Thanks!
