Need some quick, simple, elegant decorations?
Try this tissue paper flower!
Supplies:
Tissue paper
pipe cleaner
scissors
Step 1: Cut 8 squares of tissue paper at 6".
Stack them on top of one another, then fold accordian style.
Step 2: Twist a piece of pipe cleaner around the center.
Step 3: Pull the first two layers up, and scrunch them down over the pipe cleaner - creating the center of your flower.
Step 4: Gently separate the rest of the layers, pulling them up toward the center of your flower.
Step 5: Snip the last three layers in half.
Arrange the petals until you are satisfied with the shape, then place in a vase!
Lovely.

Aghhh! Where were you on Thursday night?!? I needed to make decorations for the preschool end of year open house---I drew a blank---and resprted to really ugly balloons.
ReplyDeleteThese flowers would have been so cute. BUT we are having a family dinner over here tomorrow so I think I'll try to make these for then.
Thanks for sharing!
