Turn old jeans into pretty front door decor

Do you have piles of old jeans waiting to be donated or thrown out? Create this funky, versatile wreath from strips of denim and declutter your closet in the process. Anyone who loves eclectic decor will adore the texture of the denim strips paired with vibrant flowers. Using different shades of denim adds dimension to the project. Best of all, there’s a simple way to tweak this project so the wreath can decorate your door or room all year.
This project uses sunflowers to add a punch of color, but you could switch them out for another flower, depending on the time of year. Red maple leaves or orange dahlias would be a fitting choice for fall. In spring, consider adding daffodils or camellias. Because the flowers are attached to the wreath with wire instead of glue, it’s easy to change up the look with each season.
