There I talk about the things in my life that give me wings,
{Mainly my hunk of a hubby and my sweet baby girl.}
I also post about DIY projects, fashion, photography and other little things that make life sweet.
Recently I found a project on Pinterest that I just fell in love with.
Oh Pinterest… what did we do before you?
I gotta say, my world seems much more full of color and craftiness because of you.
So I found this adorable nursery decoration and I HAD to have it for Paisley’s room.
And these are SUPER easy to make!
Let me show you!
///////
First off, pick out your desired color(s) of wrapping tissue.
For a basketball size pom pom, use two packages (20 sheets)
You can make smaller sizes by cutting the sheets in half. They will still be full, only smaller.
Step 1: Fan-fold all 20 sheets
Step 2 and Step 3: Fold in half
Step 4: Cut ends so they are rounded.
This will give the pom pom a scalloped look.
Step 5: Tie ribbon around folded area.
{Make sure its long enough to hang where you want the finished product!}
Step 6: Separate the tissue individually on either side of ribbon, firmly,
but gently pull away from surrounding pieces.
Step 7: Separate each piece of tissue on one side of the ribbon
Step 8: Repeat on other side creating a ball shape
Here’s some more examples:
And here is the finished product!
And that is how its done.
These are perfect for daily decorations, parties, anything really!
These are going above Paisley’s crib asap.
But come drop by my blog and say hello.
Pull up a chair, stay awhile and tell me about your life and your adventures.
I’d love to meet you.
Keep reading and think Happy Thoughts!
Thanks so much for posting the tutorial! Lots of moms have sent in pictures of their baby’s room with pom poms (but no instructions) used in ceiling arrangements with lanterns and other paper shapes that are so cute so this will be very helpful.
