Halloween Paper Cone Wreath

Time to start putting up all my Halloween decorations!

I went to a local boutique store and saw a really cute Halloween paper cone wreath.
I snapped a picture on my phone and then went home and made a list of items I needed.

This is the wreath I took a picture of

Here is MY wreath:

A few things I learned from my first paper cone wreath:

1. Use cardboard as the base not a wreath form (the hot glue was melting my wreath form.
2. Get LOTS of glue sticks.

Here are the elements I used:

I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut out the black card stock. 
Then I just added my elements to it. They came in my Halloween paper pack.




 You can see how I made my picket fence sign HERE.

You wont be sorry! Tons of cute ideas.

  8. This turned out so great! Thanks for the tip on the cardboard did you just use a big cardboard circle to start from? I am wanting to make a Thanksgiving wreath from book pages and this gives me some great ideas!

  9. Cute!! Great job, and it's nice to know I'm not the only one that snaps pictures of stuff I want to copy later. Although the later doesnt always happen.
