coffee filter wreath 



Lovely




start with some coffee filters and basic supplies.  i used about 230 filters.  i made my life easier by seperating batches of them at one time to speed up the process.  (btw, that's about $3 worth of filters)






there was a bit of trial and error and experimentation on my part.  i found that by taking 3 filters at one time and folding them in half twice, so as to create a triangle, gave a nice fluffy amount to work with...





i won't lie....it took about an hour and a half....but i just sat in front of the tv and did it....not too bad...









and this is what you get....fill in any empty spaces or wierd gaps if needed with single filters




and look what you get!  pretty impressive for coffee filters!  i think the wreath form was about $4 or $5, so all in all it cost me about $8 and an hour an a half of my time!


worth it, i think!











The idea is from Beach house in the city.
