Want a quick and easy back to school project?  This one is for you then! Just a few easy supplies and you have a super fast but really cute back to school wreath!

Start with a circle of some kind.  You could cut a circle out of a cardboard box. I used the cardboard that came under H’s birthday cake {you can get them at Michaels or Party City} and then painted it red.

Then, grab some pencils and colored pencils along with your hot glue gun.  Just start hot gluing the pencils around the perimeter of the circle!  I alternated the regular yellow pencils with the colored pencils as I went around the outside of my circle.  I also alternated points out or erasers out.

Once I all the pencils are glued on, grab a stencil and stencil the front with a marker.

I also added in some little yellow stenciling too with acrylic paint.

Disclaimer: I had some help with my lettering in the form of a certain blond 5 year old.  It might explain the lopsided letters a bit..or maybe I am just totally incapable of writing in a straight line.

Just hang on the door and go…all ready for back to school.
