Wall Flowers

For a wonderfully whimsical, yet still lovely look, cover an entire wall with giant paper roses. There are many tutorials on the web to help you make them, but it’s as easy as this: Cut small, medium, and large petals and stamens out of white or cream cardstock. Curl the edges of each petal around a pencil (to create the rounded-in shape) and, using hot glue, adhere petals at their bases to a cardboard circle. Arrange as you wish to form different types and shapes of flowers. For an easier but still spectacular solution, use paper fans. Whichever way you go, be sure to also hang lots of white poufs (fans, poufs, and more ideas available at BirthdayExpress.com).
