Whether it’s a bridal shower or birthday party, floral decorations are always a must. Instead of spending money on fresh flowers, impress your party-goers by creating these tissue paper pom-poms that are just as delightful as they are easy to make.

Directions:

1. Flatten out the pieces of tissue paper, and divide the ten sheets into two stacks of five pieces.
2. Take one stack, fold the tissue accordion style, and cut at 6 inches. The remaining piece should be 14 inches.
3. Fold the 6-inch piece in half using the hamburger folding method, and cut along the crease. You will end up having two sections with 5 sheets of paper in each section.
4. Take the other stack, fold the tissue accordion style, and cut so you have two 10-inch pieces.
5. At the end of the cutting, you should have one stack at 14 inches, 2 at 10 inches, and 2 at 6 inches.
6. Repeat the following two steps for each stack.
7. Center the floral wire in the middle of the tissue paper, and twist the wire tightly around the tissue. Cut the four corners of the tissue so that they’re rounded.
8. Begin to gently pull the top layer tissue paper up and towards the center, and bring the top layer of the other side up to the middle. Repeat until all 5 layers are fluffed.
