Today I have a fun and inexpensive DIY decor idea for those of you hosting a labor day party - red, white and blue paper flowers!
This project is super simple and all materials can be purchased at the Dollar Tree ($3 and you have party decor!). You'll need:
- construction paper (remember from 3rd grade?)
- buttons/pins
To make these flowers is very simple:
- with your hands (no scissors - as we are trying to get natural edges) "cut out" 4 different size circles from any combination of red, white, and blue paper
- crumble them up
3. uncrumble and assemble, securing all layers together with a pin or button (or glue if you choose)
And that's it! The end result is this fun flower that can be used in many different ways.
Tips:
- Do an all white-decor and use these flowers as accents on napkins
- Buy ribbon while you're at the Dollar Tree and pin them onto ribbons to hang (or to tie around a napkin or hang from chairs)
- Make them in other colors and create fun wall art
Enjoy the three day weekend! Happy Labor Day!
