Recycle and Reuse - Coffee Sleeve WreathRecycle and Reuse - Coffee Sleeve Wreath.  This very Simple Coffee Sleeve Wreath is a great way to recycle and reuse your cardboard coffee sleeves to create a unique wreath for the holidays.  Siobhan and Lindsey of Magpie and Cake provide a step by step tutorial on how to create an environmentally friendly wreath from salvaged cardboard coffee sleeves. 

If you need some cardboard coffee sleeves, perhaps you might convince your family, friends, co-workers, and even your local coffee house to recycle a few for you for this project.  The coffee sleeve wreath is a fast and easy project to make, and a very green way to reuse an ordinary coffee sleeve!  Enjoy!

I am pretty sure that I will never do this, but your wreath looks great.

I'm with James on this ..........the wreath looks nice but pretty sure no one will receive one from me.  I don't remember seeing any coffee sleeves in my jars of Maxwell House instant.

Reuse, recycle what a concept.  Great things come from other things...and we use them over and over.  How rewarding, like leftovers...I love leftovers.
