This DIY paper Easter wreath was originally created by Amy Cowley for the Core’dinations Core Blog.

Before we know it Easter will be knocking on our front door! What better way to decorate than with this easy, soft-hued DIY paper Easter wreath? Dress up your door with these subtle pastel patterns; switch it up for summer by creating this project using brightly colored paper instead of pastel, or for fall by using more earthy tones.

DIY Paper Easter Wreath Supplies:

• Core’dinations Core Basics Patterned Paper
• Foam Wreath Form
• Darice Burlap Ribbon
• Darice Decorative Nest
• Plastic Easter Eggs
• Darice Glue Gun
• Darice Scissors
• Darice Paper Trimmer

Step 1. Cut 1″ strips out of your patterned papers. I used 14 different papers and cut 4 strips of each.

Step 2. Cut each strip into 3 pieces so you have a good assortment of 1″ x 4″ paper strips.

Step 3. Using your glue gun, glue the ends of one strip together, creating a loop. Repeat this step with every strip.

You should now have a large pile of loops.

Step 4. Using the hot glue gun again, start gluing the loops to the wreath form, staggering the colors.

Step 5. Continue gluing paper loops onto the wreath, keeping them as even as possible. You also may need to add in extra papers to fill in gaps.

Step 6. Use the burlap ribbon to make a loop with a long piece that hangs down into the center of the wreath. Glue the ribbon to the back of the wreath and to the nest.

Step 7. Thread another piece of ribbon through the ribbon loop and tie it. This creates your wreath hanger.

Whether you hang your wreath up inside your home, on a shelf, or on your front door, every will know that you’re ready for Easter!
