Quick Tip: Paper Rosette Decorations

We love Paper Source, and we love free pattern downloads. The math's pretty simple, then -- we really love this paper rosette project from Paper Source (pdf).

All you need is some nice 8 1/2" x 11" paper and pretty ribbon or string (Paper Source is great for both) to make these sweet and simple rosettes. The project doesn't involve much more than folding sheets of paper accordion-style -- no scissors required! -- so grab your nieces and nephews or the neighbor kids and make a fun afternoon of it.

The finished products will look gorgeous hung from trees for an outdoor wedding, or on the supports of an outdoor tent. For an indoor affair, hang the rosettes from the ceiling at different heights or off the centerpieces.

These are beautiful! I wish we had that creativity when my sister got married about a month ago. We had the wedding decorations done by Having A Party over at Melbourne (this is their link: http://www.havingaparty.com.au/weddingzone.htm ). They were great, but making the decors ourselves would have saved a lot of money.

This is beautiful but I'm planning on taking it up a few notches by adding some twinkle lights inside, wire to hang it with and support it, then a little thinner paper so it's more translucent.
