Tissue Paper Pom Poms & Napkin Rings

These are by far my favorite party decorations!!! They bring color and beauty to every party!
Martha Stewart does a great how-to!

Shopping List-

1) Tissue paper-(8-10 sheets works best)
2) Pipe Cleaners, they work best and I like to loop the end to make a hanger!
3) Sharp pair of scissors, this might be a project to do after the kiddos go to bed:)

1. Stack eight 20-by-30-inch sheets of tissue. Make 1 1/2-inchwide accordion folds, creasing with each fold.
2. Fold the end of a piece of wire around the folded tissue and secure by twisting. With scissors, trim ends of tissue into rounded or pointy shapes. Don't try and do all the folds at once, to get a clean edge, cut one to two folds at a time.

3. Separate layers, pulling away from center one at a time.
Gorgeous!!! Now try the napkin rings over at Martha's, it's fun to do different sizes! Let your imagination run wild! Oh and total cost is just over $1 for each one!!!

XOXO
