Make these fun tissue paper balls for decor or a party!
A friend tought me how to make these a while ago
and I thought they'd be fun to share. They're super
easy and about as inexpensive as it gets.
I made these to add to a nursery for a baby girl,
but they'd be great decorations for a birthday party in fun bright colors, valentines day in reds and pinks, and I'm pretty sure I've even seen them at weddings. The possibilities are endless


You Will Need

  • String or Ribbon
  • Staples
  • Tissue Paper

Layer your tissue paper and cut a square. (I think this one is about 12 inches and I used 8 sheets of tissue paper. The more paper you use the tighter your ball will be. Also, you'll need less sheets for smaller sizes and more for bigger ones).











fold your paper accordian style











find the middle and staple it together 













 cut the ends into petal shapes












grab the outer layer and pull it down towards the cente











now do the other side and the other end
too.Keep alternating sides/ends until all the layers are separated.





Fluff, pull, and twist the tissue paper until you like it.
Don't be discouraged if the first one takes a minute. You'll find what works best for you and then fly through them!
I put a thread around the center of mine and hung them from the ceiling with a thumb tack. You could also use fun ribbon or string.
