book page flower wreath



to see the tutorial for the book page flower click here

to make the wreath you need a wire coat hanger, and then you need to pull it and make it into a circle shape.
                      
 then following my other tutorial make 8 flowers and cut 8 pieces of felt {you can use tape if you want}
 then use a glue gun to attach them to the coat hanger using the felt
 this is the back of the wreath when you are done
 now its finished, use the hanger bit of the coat hanger to hang were ever you want
