Felt Rose & Book Page Butterfly Wreath...

What's your colour theme for Christmas this year?

Every year I plan my decorating around a colour theme...

and this year I have decided to keep it more traditional

with red, white and green.

Christmas wreaths are so much fun to create,

so using the willow wreath previously made

I made a ton of gorgeous wee felt roses to decorate it with.

All you do it cut strips of felt using the adage...the thinner the strip, the smaller the rose.

Roll a centre,

then twist the felt as you tightly wind it around.

Hot glue the end and hold until the glue firms.

I made green, red and white ones...

Which will be perfect for this years Christmas colour theme.

I LOVE Christmas creating...
don't you?

Once you have made your roses,
simply hotglue them around the wreath.
For the focal bow,
I made a bow out of red satin ribbon, but this was not quite right.
So I made another bow from green felt.
And it was perfect!

The book paper butterflies made the other day
were added...
