How to Tissue Paper Flowers!







          Above is a simple tutorial on how to make tissue paper flowers.  All it takes is a few simple items to make a craft that completely changes the look of the room!  It is also very cost effective because all of these items can be found in any local Dollar Store.  Six to eight pieces of tissue paper will give a very full look to a medium sized flower.  A variety of sizes look great hung together too.  To make a small flower cut about a 5" x  5" square of tissue paper and use 4-7 pieces of tissue paper, but for a large flower use the full size tissue paper sheets and around 13-16 pieces of paper.  Just remember to lay out the tissue paper, cut to the correct size, fold accordion style, shape the edges, tie a wire and string, pull the pieces apart, and hang!  Many colors of tissue paper could be mixed and matched in the same flower or separate flowers for more colorful results.  Enjoy!
