Recycle and Reuse Creative Ideas: You Made a Wreath Out of What?

You made a wreath out of what?  Just recently, I created a tutorial for the Bowdabra Blog using a bundt cake pan.  The tutorial got a lot of attention because it was so simplistic and easy.  It was one of those moments when you slap yourself in the forehead and think why haven't I done that.  The bundt cake wreath tutorial started me thinking?  What other things can you make a wreath out of?  Here is what I found -



Serendipity Refined using her noodle to make a gorgeous wreath!  She literally uses noodles - a pool noodle and macaroni noodles!  Amazing right!

Craftivity Designs adds simple elegance to a door or wall with fabric filled embroidery hoops.  Finish each hoop with little buttons.

Create.Craft.Love designs a wreath using a garden hose.  I adore the originality and the vibrant green.  It screams spring!
