May Flowers
I love big tissue paper flowers and always admire them when I see them on other blogs
used as decorations at a party.
But why wait for a party to enjoy these paper flowers?
I've been needing some art on this wall and I love tissue paper flowers -
so I decided to create a bouquet of them to hang on the wall.
I found it very satisfying making these. Little effort...little cost...and great satisfaction.
They make me happy.
I can imagine adding to this over the next few weeks till the bouquet is huge.
Right now all of this is hung on one little nail using fishing line.

***UPDATE***
Because you asked for it...I'll be posting a tutorial next week on how I made the flowers and arranged.
It's really simple just like when you were a kid but I'll show.

Great idea. I think I'll make a bonnet!
Perfectly sweet!!
I'm amused by the things I see others do that I would never do myself or even think of...but love when I see them in their homes!
Very cute!
that looks so very cheerfull!!
Beautiful photos here!! So glad to have found you to follow!
Heck, Nita! They make me happy just looking at the photos on your blog! They are too pretty and *neat* :D
Those are just lovely. Will you be doing a tutorial?
Yes, please a tutorial.
I made them when I was little but now have forgotten how.
They are SO pretty.
I love looking at these photos, your home looks SO nice!
Simply Lovely!

That looks so pretty, Nita!
Nita, that is such a pretty pop of color on that wall! Thanks for joining my party.
Ok, I'll do a tutorial. I want to make some more anyway. This will give me a good excuse. I'll show in a few days. I have to go buy more tissue paper. I would have made lots more if I had had more tissue paper. I used every bit of what I had. Which was 4 packages. But I do think this bouquet needs at least three more flowers. They are very very easy to make. I hadn't made them since I was a child. Tutorial to come......
Very pretty bouquet--the colors are perfect in your lovely room! Patty
This is just gorgeous!!!
Dear Nita, always so pretty. Love the paper floral piece and I have to go along with Kim..a tutorial would be great..always easy if you know how..but if not we can only admire..beautiful, and well done..
Oooh, so soft and pretty. I like the different sizes and edgings you given them.
I used to make these back in the day, too, but have also forgotten how. Looking forward to your tutorial. I think they would be great on gift packages and I have some pressies to wrap soon...
Gorgeous!!!! My friend made tons of paper daffodils for a charity event...check out my post (the one before last). How fun are yours??!!
Oooh, it makes me smile, too, Nita! So pretty. As a matter of fact, now that you've painted all that pretty furniture white, the whole room makes me smile. I love everything about the room now. ;)
Thanks for linking to the party this week.
Blessings,

That is beautiful. There are so many possible uses for these. Weddings or showers but everyday too. Love the colors.
Oh your blog is always so sunny to visit! Nita,your dear comment was a joy to read this morning. I am on my lunch break at school and have very limited time here, but I will look into making my email available. I am not great with the technology, but I think I just need the time to study where and how I press that button to make my email appear!!! GOOD TO HEAR YOUR COUSIN IS DOING BETTER!!!!! Thank you for taking the time to come by...Anita
This is certainly a great idea and tissue paper is so inexpensive!

i have 3 of those hanging from the ceiling at different heights in a corner of my bedroom. i feel the same way about mine - they make me happy. every time i look at them it feels like a little party =)
Well, I think these are the prettiest ones I have ever seen. Seriously Nita!

This has to be the most stylish idea I have seen. Who would have thought they would look so pretty. Nice arrangement.

Cute idea and wonderful colors. Enjoying yourself is the best part. Thanks, Jenn (By way of Brambleberry Cottage Time Travel Thursday).
Oh that's pretty. I tried to make some tissue paper flowers the other day...the kind where you have to cut out each petal...I got so mad it threw it away. Yes, it went that well :)
i can't wait to get you instructions, sometimes the simplest things look very hard to do.
thank you in advance
