Materials:
- 1 flat wreath base
- 1 bottle of Aleene’s Original Tacky Glue
- Assorted wrapping paper (I used all metallics)
- Pencil
- Aleene’s Original Tacky Glue Stick
- Assorted gems and/or a bow
Instructions:
- Cut your paper into 4×4″ squares. It’s ok if they aren’t perfect, it will give more texture to the finished look.
- Take one piece and at the diagonal corner, roll it around the pencil. Add a generous amount of glue stick to the corner to seal the end down. Slide it off the pencil.
- Sort them by color. Next, pick up a handful, tap them so they are even and cut off the ends so one side is flat and the other is spiky.
- Apply a generous amount of Tacky Glue to the base, one section at a time. Set the rolls on the glue. Space them evenly and keep going all the way around.
- Let this dry and then add a second layer of rolls in between each of the first layer so it hides the base. If you want, you can cut the pieces shorter for the second row.
