Cupcake Wrapper Coffee Filter Wreath

This is the wreath that just keeps on giving. I have been able to use the main part of the wreath four times now for various seasons. I love it and wanted to incorporate it into my Christmas decorations this year. It really saves on time to use it over and over again, and it is amazing how it comes out differently each time as well.

Here is my original post on how I created the wreath to begin with: Coffee Filter Wreath.

I took off the cupcake wrappers from the Fourth of July version, and added some red and white chevron patterned wrappers to get it into Christmas mode.

I like to keep these wreaths simple. I only added some red snowflake coasters to the wreath, and that way I feel like I will be able to keep it up past the Christmas season as well.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Patriotic Cupcake Liner Wreath

This coffee filter wreath is the wreath that keeps on giving.  I first created the wreath for a spring and summer design.

Coffee Filter Wreath 1

I removed the embellishments and created a Valentine Wreath with some simple hearts added instead.

Coffee Filter Wreath 2

This is the next version I have created. I figured that this wreath could go from Memorial Day to July 4th.  I had some cupcake liners that I bought for less than a dollar at Jo-Ann Fabrics last summer.  I added the the liners by wrapping them every few inches around the wreath.

I still have plenty of liners leftover in the package to actually use for cupcakes.  I had some leftover star decorations from the Dollar Tree and I attached those where the hearts and previous fabric flowers were placed.  Thanks for stopping by!

Valentine Wreath

I decided that I would use my coffee filter wreath as a Valentine's wreath as well. I just simply took off my decorations that I had previously used and then added a few felt hearts I picked up at Jo-Ann Fabrics.  No sense in letting a perfectly good wreath only be useful for one season or holiday. I think I will continue to just make simple changes and keep it for multiple occasions.  

All you need to do is simply flatten the coffee filters and layer them on top of one another. I attached the filters using a hot glue gun, and was able to cover the straw wreath form in a matter of minutes. Then I simply attached the hearts at the bottom.  I used the straw wreath form from Hobby Lobby, and actually left it inside the plastic covering it came packaged in. That makes it a lot easier to maintain the shape, and then you are not cleaning up straw pieces that would fall off over time.

Here are three other ways I used the same wreath and just changed up the decorations.

Coffee Filter Wreath

I recently completed this coffee filter wreath.  I had pinned a coffee filter wreath a while back and thought it looked like a fun project to try out.  I'll Get You My Pretties provides a great tutorial and it's a lot less time consuming then other types of coffee filter wreaths out there. I completed this one in one viewing of Sleeping Beauty with my daughter. That is the movie of choose at this point in our summer.  

I purchased this straw wreath from Hobby Lobby for approximately five dollars.  Then I got a large pack of coffee filters from the Dollar Tree.  I did not even put a dent into that pack of coffee filters either. I could make a few more projects with what is left over. I flattened the filters in half and layered them one one another until I made it all the way around.

I had some leftover fabric and jute from other projects. I was about to make some fabric flowers using the tutorial provided by Ruffles and Stuff.  Then I cut out some pennants for the garland across the back. I won some fabulous twine from the The Twinery through a fantastic giveaway a few weeks ago from Audra at The Kurtz Corner, so I made little bows to go on each of the pennants across the wreath.

The total cost for this project was $5.00.  I was excited to try out this project because I had pinned or liked several variations in the past few months.


Hope you are enjoying your weekend. We are having a beautiful one here in Maryland.
