I decided to make some hanging decorations for Allie's birthday party last minute. I had seen some of these and decided to copy them:
I doubled up on the tissue paper, since they were supposed to hang on trees and I didn't want the wind destroying them.
I folded them accordion-style, then glued the ends together so it was one big accordion-folded piece.
I pinched one end and stapled it together as close to the edge as possible.
Then I brought each side together to form a circle and glued those ends together.
I taped a piece of string to one end and that was it!
These ended up inside, and a little tattered after a storm came in right before the party started.
Stay tuned for the rest of Allie's party decorations...
