This is such a great idea.I have some old hymnals that are seriously falling apart anyway. I hate the thought of throwing them away.This is the PERFECT use for them:)
Do you think a Guttenberg Bible from the end of the 15th century would make a good starter material for this project. I got one, but someone called Martin Luther scribbled all over it...
What a great idea! Inexpensive and still classy looking - thats my style! Nothing better than good old creativity.
I think you are interesting in your videos so don't listen to others comments about "chatter" - if they don't like your personality they can find ideas from someone else. *Blah* to them! :)
@angielacount921 That was uncalled for I thought she did a beautiful job. Learning arts and crafts is not a science class. You call it chatter some of us call it conversation. I'd rather have chatter than rude any day.
To much chatter on your part. All I needed was instruction on how to make wreath. I think you give good instruction on how to make the wreath when you finally get around to it. I would love to watch more instruction videos from you but would like a lot less talking on your part about stuff that really isn't needed to accomplish your goal of how to make the wreath.
and then placed a battery LED light generating item in the center and made a hood in the center to cover the source and allow the light to come from the petals of the sunflower through the holes, once this was done, i sprayed shimmer and gold on the completed flosers, I made some 8 of such huge flowers with different LED light colors and the effect was fantastic, the party was a kickass super hit. THANKS FOR THE INITIAL IDEA
@CatsandMe that's exactly what I thought I'm going to go with some pink an purple type construction paper for an Easter wreath. Maybe jelly beans for the center?
I loved your wreath toot your so clever!- I also cringed when you mentioned tearing a book apart - I love books, but I can see if it really is of no use then repurose it. Best of luck!
I love the idea! I would paint it if you don't like the pages, I'm sure spray paint would be fine on the paper wreath before putting in the center piece.
HAHA! Thanks for a fun video. LOVE the idea and plan on using it as a decorative piece for my parents' 50th anniversary. I used to cringe at the thought of ripping up old books, but if they're already falling apart, why not turn it into a lovely piece of art rather than having it sitting around collecting dust? Recycle and reuse!
I once paid a buck for a book and sold it to a collector for $800. Do your homework before ripping up old books even if they only cost a buck. You might have a hidden gem.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this idea and your video is adorable!! You are so cute, just hangin out, readin the paper, eatin M&Ms..you just kill me! This is just gorgeous and YES I will be trying this! I have no problem 'RECYCLING' Dont care WHO's book or how old ..like you said..the 'book' was still admired by more people...ESPECIALLY if someone doesnt really read like myself...[i DO read, just not often!] Thank you so much!!! xox Merry Christmas!!,,Pam
your respect for book baffles me..great peice of art but an old magazine is so much better once its read instead of shredding it make this wreath spray it with paint...have respect for books..the kindle reader hasnt killed the books
@genmama1955 ... I store mine under the stairs. I have friends who hang theirs in their homes - they take off the center if it looks too "holiday" and use tiny pine cones or walnut shells or other winter goodies to fill the center. Then it becomes an year-round decorative piece. Any other ideas?? What would you fill the center with to make it an all-year look?
@JennaDeAngeles1 Hahaha if I stored mine under the stairs, it would have bikes parked all over it! I live in apartment building. I think I might try to fill the center with fresh flowers, maybe a photo of my son. Hey, you've gotten my creative juices flowing! Thanks! Merry Christmas to you and your family.
@JennaDeAngeles1 Make seasonal centers out of natural bits. Make them removable by putting velcro stickers on the back of the interchangeable centers and on the center of the wreath. Presto, a seasonal wreath .
@JennaDeAngeles1 seashells, glass rocks, actual rocks! Thanks for the great idea. Oh you could even use a gold or silver sharpie along the edges for a little bling!
When you said you were going to use a Groves Dictionary, I almost stopped breathing!!! (I have a degree in music) That book was an invaluable source for me while writing theses, etc. But guess what! There are newer editions! So I am giving myself permission to use an old book to make one of these gorgeous wreaths! It is so beautiful!
@genmama1955 .. I am so glad you said that! I started to read your comment and my pulse stopped fearing I had made an enemy! The spine was broken on the book I found at a $1 book sale and it was falling apart .. but has been reincarnated into a wreath that has been appreciated by so many :) Thank you, Mr Grove's !!
For those who are scared and not wanting to rip their old books yet alone good books i recommend tearing a phone book or even magazines even though they don't have a very retro look its still works... hope i helped
Don't hate me for asking, The design is absolutely gorgeous but the thought of destroying an old book for a wreath is something I can't do, so there has to be another way to get the same effect.
@Hochichin ... I can say this 1,000 times - but the book I bought was a broken spined poor old thing - and it cost $1. I get your pain though. I love books. But to answer your query? SURE! Use sheet music, colored paper, wrapping paper, old bags - whatever works!!!
@Hochichin You could recycle old newspapers!! Brew a pot of strong coffee and brush it onto the paper. When the paper dries, it will be a little crinkly and have that vintage look to it! Since it will be a little crinkly though, it might be harder to roll so just be patient with it. :D Hope that helps!
@rawkstarr89 you know that's not a bad idea, I ampule amounts of newspaper around cause I use it for other things. I may try that, that really isn't a bad idea. in fact...I think you may have just sparked an interesting one...I will try it out and then see if I can post up some images somewhere. thanks.
this is soooo beautiful, it really is, but it's hurting me seeing you rip these books apart. it's like your ripping a piece of history, I know I'm sorry. But being a writer it's hard to watch....ugg. Is there another way to do this without having to rip old books apart? What about just regular typing paper that's been tea stained or coffee stained? Or even construction paper or old paper bags cut to size? I know it would take a bit longer but it would rescue and old book.
can i just say, you are a genius! my creativity level is very high, but i would never have thought of that! you inspired me do a holiday wreath.However, i enjoy books alot, so i am going to do it with a magazine( just like i did with the magazine christmas tree)
Delightful personality. Wreath is stunning and ever-so-create and simple! Thank you for sharing, this is going to make a wonderful Chistmas gift!
For those of you who also feel guilty about tearing a book apart, keep the cover and make a journal- that way you're not wasting everything and you have two uniquely beautiful products in one. You can find videos that teach journal-making here on Youtube as well. Happy crafting!
Ok! But its kinda hard to hang it cause of how our door is. It has a screen infront of it instead of just the door alone so I rly cant put it in our door or its not gonna show or get flat or something like that. So I was thinking of putting it beside the door where the wall is. What u think. I made one the other day it was rly pretty. Thanks btw.. me nd my hubby loved it! very inexpensive christmas wreath :).. enjoy ur coming Christmas!
This is so cute, but I love books so much that I don't think I could rip books apart. Maybe if they were completely falling apart, but I just can't bring myself to ripping them apart.

I made this wreath last night from a sheet music book and it turned out beautiful. Between your tutorial, and sense of humor, I was confident enough to make (with a little help with some M&M's). Thank you for your sharing your talents!
@DingoDawg100 .. why not? Just make sure the paper is thick enough. I think 24 lb. printer paper would be too light and flimsy. The thicker stuff? For sure! :)
@salmaelmeligi : Spray - you mean with spray paint? Only a light dusting before assembly... but if the paper is beautiful why would you want to paint it? Explain :)
@salmaelmeligi .. my only concern is that spray paint makes paper wet and heavy and the tubes might collapse. Maybe try different colored papers or wrapping paper ... ? Try it and let me know! :) - Jenna
@merihide1 No problem with dust: Merely take your hairdryer (on low or NO heat) and blow it clean once every couple of months. No mess! Enjoy! - Jenna
Very creative! Although I'm against trashing books, I noticed one of the books you used looked as though it were already missing over 1/3 of it's pages, which sometimes happens over years of use. If the alternative is really to toss the book out, why not recycle it into something creative? Good job!
-- BTW - I think a better source of paper might be the recycling bin at work ;) Bring tons of cover sheets home all the time for re-use.
@utube101x The book was OLD - with a broken spine, falling apart and cost $1 !!!! There are TONS of old books rotting out there - why not take a trashed old book and make it lovely? I didn't go out and buy an antique collector's item and shred it for kicks! Yee gads!
@JennaDeAngeles1 Hun, if you carefully read my reply you'll see I was supporting you. Of all the posts attacking you, why do you choose one of the only supportive ones to attack?
Not all old books are great antiques, some old books are damaged and out of date. A phone book would look ugly. And to ironbord it would be you're not your. nitrolpr9 it is destroyed not distroyed. I don't have time for this. The wreath is lovely.
The wreath looks great. But how dare you destroy such historical, still readable books! I had the greatest urge to cry as you ripped up those amazing books!
You should have used a phone book or scrap paper or something, have some respect!!!!
I still cannot believe you distroyed that dictionary for music & musicians. Shame on you. Music comes from the human soul. And you trash it. Have you no respect for the human species?
OK, stop crying about a stupid book that no one will ever read again!!!! They end up being thrown away anyway. If we want to get upset about something, try thinking a little deeper! Serioulsy.
hey ppl who are complaining stfu its a great idea, also you can make non old pages look old....by using teabags, and burning it just a little and crankling the pages your self. that way you dont have the smell of old gross over handled books...
oh aand also printing you own prints with stamps andother things are great too
You are disgraceful...You have no respect for antiquity at all. It's because of people like you that the "Dead Sea Scrolls" needed to be hidden in a cave.
An actual STARGATE/PORTAL-THING was caught on film in New Mexico. The footage can be found within the short-film entitled "SUDDEN PORTHOLE", which is parked at the PROJECT CAMELOT YouTube page (it's under the George Noory video).
I'm not selling anything…I'm just trying to spread the word about the unseen-dimensions we find ourselves embedded in.
My BLOG contains peripheral data regarding the movie and is where I reply to the "debunkers" (use search words "SAM ZURICK" & "BLOG"). THANKS!!
In 1922, the Edwardian period had recently ended and Nosferatu was giving ladies a fit of the vapors. Annie Oakley set a record by shooting 100 clay targets in a row. Archaologists enter King Tut's tomb.
This would look really cool if you printed off music sheets (Christmas ones) and put it together with music on the outside...would make an awesome Christmas wreath!
How about tea dying a newer book or zeroxed copies of a page. I hate to rip up books but this is a lovely wreath...Emily Post 1922 may be worth something...check before you rip.
This is such a great idea.I have some old hymnals that are seriously falling apart anyway. I hate the thought of throwing them away.This is the PERFECT use for them:)

@salmaelmeligi .. my only concern is that spray paint makes paper wet and heavy and the tubes might collapse. Maybe try different colored papers or wrapping paper ... ? Try it and let me know! :) - Jenna

very lovely. but i like the phone book idea rather than a regular book. a book i rip up might be valuable to someone out there.

@merihide1 No problem with dust: Merely take your hairdryer (on low or NO heat) and blow it clean once every couple of months. No mess! Enjoy! - Jenna

@JennaDeAngeles1 oh thats a good idea actually. thanks :)

Very creative! Although I'm against trashing books, I noticed one of the books you used looked as though it were already missing over 1/3 of it's pages, which sometimes happens over years of use. If the alternative is really to toss the book out, why not recycle it into something creative? Good job!
-- BTW - I think a better source of paper might be the recycling bin at work ;) Bring tons of cover sheets home all the time for re-use.

@utube101x The book was OLD - with a broken spine, falling apart and cost $1 !!!! There are TONS of old books rotting out there - why not take a trashed old book and make it lovely? I didn't go out and buy an antique collector's item and shred it for kicks! Yee gads!

Not all old books are great antiques, some old books are damaged and out of date. A phone book would look ugly. And to ironbord it would be you're not your. nitrolpr9 it is destroyed not distroyed. I don't have time for this. The wreath is lovely.

The wreath looks great. But how dare you destroy such historical, still readable books! I had the greatest urge to cry as you ripped up those amazing books!
You should have used a phone book or scrap paper or something, have some respect!!!!

I still cannot believe you distroyed that dictionary for music & musicians. Shame on you. Music comes from the human soul. And you trash it. Have you no respect for the human species?

OK, stop crying about a stupid book that no one will ever read again!!!! They end up being thrown away anyway. If we want to get upset about something, try thinking a little deeper! Serioulsy.

hey ppl who are complaining stfu its a great idea, also you can make non old pages look old....by using teabags, and burning it just a little and crankling the pages your self. that way you dont have the smell of old gross over handled books...
oh aand also printing you own prints with stamps andother things are great too

You are disgraceful...You have no respect for antiquity at all. It's because of people like you that the "Dead Sea Scrolls" needed to be hidden in a cave.

An actual STARGATE/PORTAL-THING was caught on film in New Mexico. The footage can be found within the short-film entitled "SUDDEN PORTHOLE", which is parked at the PROJECT CAMELOT YouTube page (it's under the George Noory video).
I'm not selling anything…I'm just trying to spread the word about the unseen-dimensions we find ourselves embedded in.

This would look really cool if you printed off music sheets (Christmas ones) and put it together with music on the outside...would make an awesome Christmas wreath!

To take the decoration a bit further--
Brush the edges of the cones w/glue, and then sprinkle w/various sizes of glitter
or
Spray the finished wreath with glitter spray [a spray paint that is actually clear lacquer w/ glitter added!]
or
Extend whatever decorative element you used in the center to the cones, tucking ornaments into the cones, or wheat stems in-between the cones
or
whatever appeals to you . . .
