Paper Roses



Just like that lame song you can have paper roses, or any other flower for that matter! A new trend in wedding decor is Tissue Paper Poms, or even real flower poms that you can make yourself for as little as $5 a piece, and the add so much POP to the end of your pews, or hang them from the ceiling.

You can buy traditional tissue paper yourself and follow a how to video on youtube.com, or you can buy ready made kits at ETSY.com, Wal-mart, or MarthaStewartWedding.com.

I am using lime green poms to hang off the ends of my Pews for the Ceremony, I will be making mine with real carnations (don't gasp), you can't even tell they are carnations once they are all bunched up together, just look at the picture (Orange one real, white paper)!

Here are some helpful How to Links:

  1. Amber,
    I think its so funny you mentioned martha stewarts paper flowers. I did them for my friend Colby's bridal shower. It was a little taxing for someone who likes to have everything right, like myself, but in the end I really liked the way they came out. They are super cute. You are rocking this planning thang, I love your ideas!!
    Love, erin
