May 22, 2012 by Holly Gagnon 35 Comments

Oooh.. Hello, pretty Paper Cone Wreath!   I just love these types of wreaths.  There bold, make a statement and easy to make!

Gorgeous papers, huh?  The papers are from the Dear Lizzy Neapolitan  collection,  it’s an oldie but goody.   I’ve always loved the colors of these papers, it was hard to cut them up…..sigh….but totally worth it now.

How to make a  Paper Cone Wreath:

Paper Cone Wreath Tutorial

Supplies Needed to make a Paper Cone Wreath:

  • Hot Glue Gun (guess I should of cleaned up my glue gun for the photo- Ack!)
  • 8-12×12 sheets of double sided card stock
  • Fluid chalk or ink
  • 1-12 inch cardboard circle

  • Cut pattered paper into 6 x 6 inch squares.
  • Roll into cones and hot glue together.

You’ll need to make approximately 17 cones for a 12″ wreath.   Ink the edges of the cone as desired.

Pencil a circle template in the center of the the cardboard to use as a guide.  Hot glue the cones on  the cardboard following your template lines.

For the wreath’s second layer:

  • cut patterned paper into 4 x 6  inch pieces.
  • Roll them into cones and hot glue together.

You’ll need to make approximately 17 cones also for the second layer.  Ink edges as desired.

  • Hot glue the 4 x 6 cones to cover the gaps between the first cone layer.

Ahhh….now Smile at your Pretty Paper Cone Wreath!

For the center of the wreath,  I added an 8 inch scallop circle and shadow cut from Cricut Elegant Edges and embossed a sentiment cut from Gypsy Wanderings.     I laced seam binding ribbon  throughout the circle scallop and stuck in a couple of cute leaf stick pins. Doesn’t this  Paper Cone Wreath make such a pretty statement?!

        Hello Lori,
        Inking is dabbing an ink pad along the edge of paper to provide a subtle contrast. Thanks for visiting. Holly
