Dictionary Flower Wreath

Neokentin • Category : {Art, DIY, Paper} • September 29th, 2011

Dictionaries are thrown out so much now, and I get sad seeing them in dumpsters. I am very strict on using only trash of second hand items, and so I had to wait months to find this beautiful second hand wreath at a local thrift store, I took the wreath home giddy with excitment, I then spent 5 hours creating the beautiful hand drawn and cut petals for each of the flowers… it turned out beautiful. And if you ever get board, go ahead and learn a word or two off a flower. Upcycle on Everyone!
