How to Make Tissue Paper Pom-Poms

| Tissue Paper Pom-Poms |
After I posted our gender reveal party, many of you wanted a tutorial on how I made the tissue paper pom-poms. Well, today’s your lucky day– it’s tissue paper pom-pom making time, people.
Not only will I show you how to make tissue paper pom-poms, I’m going to show you how to get 5 tissue paper pom-poms (1 large, 2 medium, 2 small) out of one $.99 package of tissue paper.
These are really easy to make once you get the hang of it. It’s also a good mindless TV watching crafting activity. But you have to “watch” something you don’t really have to pay attention to since you’ll need to watch what you’re doing with making the poms. I “watched” old Grey’s Anatomy episodes on Lifetime while I made the majority of mine for the gender reveal party.

| Curled Paper Star |
After came back from the weekend trip and just before Christmas Day, I managed to steal some times to make these quick and easy curled paper stars. These curled paper stars were such a hit recently, we see them everywhere, from internet, on trees, on gift wraps, on Christmas stocking, on table’s center-piece, in cars, even on the walls of the restaurants. I know I must make some and here they are, love the sheen on the curls

I've been a snowflake-making maniac and loving every minute of it. :) Michelle of Vintage Junky shares how to make 3 different snowflakes...which include folding instructions to turn an 8x11" piece of paper into a square, then into a 6-sided hexagon (very important for the base of the snowflake!) go HERE for those tutorials. Below I pass on her folding wisdom...and 3 more snowflake stencils.

Even the smallest of dwellings requires a Christmas tree. This one is made from pretty Japanese papers in green, silver and gold and is very straightforward to make based on a simple folded fan shape. You could just as easily make yours from giftwrap, or go for an all white look for sophisticated elegance.

Paper Wreath (DIY)
 |
| Paper Wreath |
Lately I have had wreaths on the brain. But I always think the ones I see at stores are a little bit unattractive. I still super love the boxwood wreath that I bought at Target at Christmastime. The sad news about a real boxwood wreath is that you have to keep it inside because if it gets too hot or cold, it will turn brown and that’s ugly. I was trying to think about how I could make one that wasn’t so sensitive. I debated using felt for leaves but that seemed too complicated so I thought I would see what I could do with paper. I determined this would work for me because my front door is behind a storm door so it doesn’t need to be waterproof.

How to Make Hand Cut Snowflakes

| Hand Cut Snowflakes |
When my parents-in-law were newly married and both in school, they faced decorating their Christmas tree with no money to buy ornaments.
The solution came from what they, as young students had in abundance… white typewriter paper. They folded and cut and soon their tree was blanketed in beautiful, elegant snowflakes.

How To Make Flower Gift Topper

| Flower Gift Topper |
If you love wrapping packages as much as I do, you might enjoy making this mega-fringed flower. It’s reminiscent of a Gerbera daisy and is an attention-catching substitute for the usual bow. Based on the same technique as a much smaller quilled fringed flower, the cuts are made with detail scissors. Instead of regular paper or lightweight cardstock, I used a new product called TerraSkin (essentially, pressed mineral powder), but paper or cardstock would be fine too.
