The wreath is beautiful. I actually made two very similar ones--one I have in my dining room and it looks beautiful, and the other one I sold at a craft fair. I only asked $36.00 for it... I probably made two cents an hour (haha)! The one I sold was made from an old vintage book, so the pages were very tanned. The one I kept is mostly a newer book, but I added some tanned pages here and there--it is quite attractive. I don't know if I will make anymore either. If I do, I will charge a lot more.

This isn't an EASY craft... :) Trust me...this is from my site. It took me months to roll over 500 bookpage flowers. It's extremely time consuming, but worthwhile in the end!
