Mexican Paper Flowers...

I love Mexican Paper Flowers. Once when planning a dinner at church; we had the smallest budget to decorate. My friend had the idea to have a fiesta. We gathered up all the tissue paper we could afford and had about 11 friends over to my little apartment where we made huge paper flowers for hours. It was so much fun! When we decorated the gymnasium, it was so bright and beautiful. We also borrowed some brightly colored Mexican Peasant dresses and silver jewelry. We looked great! And the party was the funnest ever. Good job! Jessica!

Your paper flowers are lovely. My daughter and her friends are planning to make some for her quinceanera decorations. I was wondering if you used specialty paper or somehow added the beautiful tint to the edges?

Michelle, I wish I had made the ones pictured. Mine have never turned out quite so lovely so I don't know the trick.. If you find out and let me know. :)
