DIY Tissue Paper Flower Party Decor Video Tutorial

One of my fabulous readers Ale, sent me an email asking me to post a tutorial on how I made the DIY tissue paper flowers for my girls Gymnastics Party. I love tissue paper flowers but they aren’t the only type of party decor you can make with tissue paper.

Hanging Ombre DIY Tissue Paper Flower Video Tutorial - Make your party more fun, exciting, and colorful with these tissue paper flowers!

I’ve shown you how you can make a fabulous DIY tissue paper flower number or letter for your party (or home decor). I forgot I have never shared with you guys my twincesses first birthday party. It was owl themed and I made some gorgeous hanging cascading tissue paper balls. So I decided to share that tutorial as well.

Tissue paper flowers are one of those crafts that add big impact and are so cheap to make. All you need is Tissue paper and ribbon or floral wire.

The first step is to fold the tissue paper accordion style, if your paper is a rectangle fold on the shorter side. Fold the accordion in half and tie floral wire or thin ribbon firmly around the middle.

Next you use a scissors and round the edges. This gives the paper its floral like appearance, you can also cut the edges into a point for another look. Just play around with what you like, I personally like the rounded edges.

All that’s left to do it to place your accordian flat on the table and pull each sheet of tissue paper separately from each side.

You could also make another variation on this DIY tissue paper flower and make hanging floral balls and cascading floral balls.

The Three differences are:

1) when you wrap the floral wire around the ‘accordion’ create a loop in the middle.

2) fluff the flower on both sides to create a ball instead of a one sided flower

3)Tie fishing line to the floral wire loop and tie to a thumbtack

To make the hanging cascading balls of different sizes

1) cut sheets for each ball smaller than the first. For example I used 20″x20″, 16″x16″, 12″x12″ 9″x9″ 2) Tie fishing line to the floral wire loop and connect to the loops of each subsequent floral ball.

and hang alone or tie it to the loop of your other flower if you want to cascade the balls.

Here is a Video that shows you how to make these flowers and floral balls.
