Last week Mel hosted a bridal shower for one of her friends. This time the theme was Fiesta, so we gathered our ideas and made it come to life. Here I will show you how to make the paper flowers we used to display at the party.
The first step is to take four sheets of tissue paper and fold it accordion style.
At about two inches from the edge, staple the fold.
At both ends cut a scalloped design to give the flower petals.
Gently separate each piece of paper from the rest.
Lift up the rest from the other end.
Repeat each step until you have four.
Grab a paper plate and use your glue gun to start gluing each part together.
You will end up with a nice puffy flower
For easy hanging, I punched two holes on both the bottom and top of the plate. I then threaded a piece of string though and tied the ends.
You can use the same technique and experiment with different colors and sizes.
This was the final look for the party. These flowers make an awesome background for pictures. Hope you enjoyed this quick and easy project.
Stay tuned for more pictures of the Fiesta Bridal Shower.
