I like to decorate my tree with Mexican Paper Flowers, but every year I think maybe not this year. Paper flowers don't save well from year to year. You can save them. When I used to do a crepe-paper flower tree (which was just insanity) the flowers were good for about 3 years in a row. I just love the way it looks when it's finished I guess, because I can't stop myself even though making the flowers has ceased to be fun and I find myself in envy of people who get their decorations out of a box (what a great idea!). We tend to be a bit Christmas crazy around here. Well, I still need to make the orange flowers and when I get them up.. I'll show you.
I love MEXICAN paper flowers!!!!! Maybe you need just a small little tree full of paper flowers?? If you don't want to make a whole hug one full??? xxo (my mom puts up three trees!! can you imagine???)
ReplyDeleteWow! I bet your tree looks spectacular.
ReplyDeleteI am going to miss your tree! Great pictures!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was little, I remember you had a pink one of these in your room. I loved it and probably touched it so much I messed it up. You just don't know how it feels to worship an older sister since you are the oldest. But let me tell you, it is fun. I know I was a pain taking your room apart when you were at school, but I would not have done that if I didn't absolutely adore you! I love you Tif!
ReplyDeleteI borrowed a love box picture hope it is okay!
ReplyDeleteThese flowers are stunning. I've never seen them in person, but I'll keep my eyes open for one this year.
ReplyDeleteI love making these flowers and not just at Christmas. I use them any time I need to make a big statement and I only have a small budget.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Love your blog.
