Wedding Decor: Tissue flowers

 Wedding decorations have begun.

 Some basic tools, the Dollar store and a bit of inspiration from Martha.


 Accordion pleat 8 sheets of tissue paper, wrapping  the center with a thin wire. 
Carefully pull the layers apart. Do not do this after having just finishing your morning coffee. 
Slowly and carefully pull are the key words here.  This will make half a pom-pom. 
I wired two together to form spheres. 
They price out to $2.00 each.

I love making these! I use decorative cutting scissors for pretty edges. It's fun to paint a bit of glue on the tips and add some of Martha's glitter! :)

We made these for my daughter in law's shower and hung them from "trees". They were a big hit. Have fun.
