DIY Back to School Ruler Wreath
Don’t you just love brand new school supplies? I mean , love! There’s just so much crafting potential there, all new and pretty. How about cutting perfectly good wood rulers in half only to hot glue them on to the back of a chalkboard to make a wreath? My kids were a little appalled by this idea when they saw it happening. They really shouldn’t surprise at of my craft ideas anymore. I mean, come one kids, why would you possibly think 14 new rulers were actually for you?
To embellished the Ruler Wreath, I layered die cuts from the Cricut Locker Talk & Doodlecharms cartridges then added red gingham buttons, glitter and twine on the wreath.

This wreath is totally fabulous and so clever! I love that you used the rulers the way you did, although sorry your children thought they were all for them-how cute! The die cuts you used are fabulous and perfect as well. You have certainly inspired me to try something like this! Thanks for joining BBTB2 😉
Great idea. Can’t understand why the kids would get upset over cutting perfectly good rulers in half. LOL They must not have your creative mind. Thanks for sharing with us at BBTB2.
How cute! Love this idea!
Holly, this is super great! You rock!
