I have been getting ready for the holiday season making these wreaths out of vintage materials. I have seen many versions of the paper wreaths out of sheet music and after some fine tuning I have come up with my own version. I search for old sheet music so the paper has an aged look. It can't be to old or it falls apart when I fold it. I also use vintage tinsel garland that I look for at estate sales or on Ebay. Some tinsel is older than others so each wreath can vary depending what I can find. Then I use letters from vintage Anagram games. Again some letters have been used more than others but I don't use any that are really worn or stained. The ribbon is a natural jute ribbon. Lastly they are packed in a cello bag to protect them.
I really like the neutral color pallet and a little bit of sparkle from the tinsel and fine glitter on the medallion in the center. These are for sale here.
