Cafe’ Wreath

Those who know me know that I LOVE coffee and when I saw a wreath made out of coffee filters at  The Little Brown House,  it inspired me to make my own for my kitchen. 

I gathered up the supplies I would need.   The only thing I needed that I didn’t already have was the natural brewed coffee filters.  So off to Wal-Mart I went.

And then I went to work and created this……..

In the center of the flowers, I hot glued a little bird’s nest and put coffee beans in it.

The best part of makin it up….is the smell of coffee beans on my door……ummm.

  1. I love your wreath! The addition of the flowers and bird's nest makes it extra special. And coffee bean "eggs" are such a fun idea! I drink Eight O'Clock coffee too, it's the best! Especially their dark Italian! Saw you over at Funky Junk.

  2. Hi Gail,
    This is a wonderful project! I love everything about it...the coffee filters, the colors, the flowers and especially the bird's nest with the coffee bean eggs. I just may have to try making one of these.
    Have a great weekend.

  15. This is probably the best use of coffee filters (that was not making coffee) I have seen. I would love it if you added it to my link party this afternoon! (And any other great projects you have)
