You know that drawer of leftover ribbons you have from your gift-wrapping supplies? Put them to good use! Elise Blaha Cripe crafted all of her ribbons into a cute wreath without a trip to the store.

DIY Ribbon Wreath

She glued cotton squares to chipboard to create the wreath form, and wrapped and stapled her ribbon collection to finish the look. Elise claims it’s so easy “a caveman could do it”.

Not a fan of this – looks like something a child would make at kindergarten.

I taught second and third grader's how to make these years ago. They are cute and easy Mother's Day gifts when mad by children.

I see no charm in thisat all. In fact…it's rather ugly & plain.

Corolla: the next whorl toward the apex, composed of units called petals, which are typically thin, soft and colored to attract animals that help the process of pollination.Androecium (from Greek andros oikia: man's house): the next whorl (sometimes multiplied into several whorls), consisting of units called stamens.
