How To: Make a Rolled Paper Wreath

This project is from the Rag and Bone Bindery. Urban Outfitters has jumped on board the recycled-magazines-into-objects trend, but we prefer the DIY versions, like this wreath or the magazine wall treatment. It's always more fun to have something on the wall that you made yourself.

That looks really nice. I'd think I'd take an extra step and spray paint it gold. I bet it would look wonderful.

Am I missing where they give full instructions or are they just not on the linked site?

I'm with Grr - followed the link only to find the same two photos with no instructions.

It's so expensive at some stores like Urban Outfitters but you can get these kind of items at Zellers for 50% off. Some of the bowls and wall stuff were as low as $10.

Instructions are coming soon.

I usually don't like the look of arts-and-crafts projects, but this is pretty attractive. I even like leaving the paper unpainted. If the instructions are easy enough, it might be a fun project to do with kids.
