I love simple papercrafts where all you need are the basics. Sometimes you don’t need to get fancy with expensive crafting materials to make something beautiful.

This woodland animal wreath has three different animals you can choose from to include in the centre. A fox, a squirrel and a bunny (I haven’t included a picture of the bunny version but the shape is there).
