So some people have asked me how to make these cute balls I always hang from the ceiling at parties. (You can also make a super small one and attatch to a gift as a bow. That is really cute)
So you start with tissue paper cut into squares. Depending on how big your square is, that is how big your ball will be. How many sheets of paper you use will determine the fluffyness. I use 8 usually, Sometimes I do all the same color, sometimes different colors and patterns.... variety is good. (If I were doing a bow I wouls cut the sheet into 4th's and still use the same amount of paper to make a tiny SUPER fluffy ball)
Then fold into an accordian shape like this...
Secure it with pipe cleaner (you won't be able to see the pipe cleaner so if it does not match, thats ok) I like to cut the ends into a point. Sometimes I do a circle, and sometimes I leave it square
Then you siple seperate each of the tissue paper "pages". as you seperate them the ball will get fluffier. Kinda scrunch them and place them how you want. The ball doesn't need to be perfect.
And voila! tissue paper ball awesomeness.
