home made: recycled & repurposed wreathe

There is something soothing about the color white. It is simple. It is pure.

It is stark in it's beauty...but bringing together the many different shades

of white can be resplendent in itself.I have always recycled, repurposed

my {laundry sheets}...dye catching sheets, fabric softener sheets.

I have dyed them, cut them, sew them into projects.

 No matter how many times I have tried, I just can not bring myself to throw them away...

...each time a fresh new load of wash is complete I add another dye catching square to my growing stack of {laundry sheets}.The same goes for softener sheets. Fresh out of the dryer they are soft, they are wispy and they hold just a hint of that lovely smell they started with...

 

...so the other day I had an idea. I would use this beautiful pile, in shades of white, to make a new wreathe. I have been wanting a new one, in shades of white, of course...{take a peek at the end result}...

 ...the result was this beautiful wreathe in {shades of white}...

 ...if one {laundry sheet} felt gray or dingy, I didn't let it stop me...

 ...because in the end, when it was cut and twirled, it was just as beautiful as the rest...

 ...there were tinges of the palest pinks and yellows...

 

 ...it is so dreamy...
