Hello! Hi, my name is Jenny and I write a little blog called Hank + Hunt, where I like to share fun little party crafts. I was super excited when Kirstin asked me to contribute a little DIY for this happy little party! I love course said yes, and thought I'd whip up a super easy topper tutorial. So, here we go my lovelies...
DIY Crepe Paper Pom Flowers
Yep, that is a really long name, but I don't know what to call them. Whatever they are called, they turn out pretty cute. Truly, the pictures don't do them justice. I just bought some black crepe paper yesterday to make some for the upcoming halloween season.
You will need:
Cardstock (for template)
Crepe Paper Sheets
Scissors
Lollipop Sticks
Cardstock or Circle Printable (for flower center)
Cut out a circle template out of cardstock, I used my 2 3/4 circle punch to do this for me. Cut out squares of crepe paper about 3 inches square. Layer a few at a time to make this go fast. Place template on a stack of squares and cut out circles.
Take 8 circles. Use one circle and place a Pop up Glue Dot in the center, top with a new circle. Top with another dot, then layer, until you have four layers. Repeat with a separate stack for the second four circles.
Top one stack with another Glue Dot and press in a lollipop stick. Top with second stack of circles. Press gently but firmly together.
Cut all layers, all the way around, using straight cuts (like petals.) Top each center with a circle of contrasting cardstock or a circle printable matching your party theme.
Fluff and scrunch the fringe. Stick in a cupcake and have one heck of a good time (required.)
Thanks Kirstin for having me! This was fun!
xo,
Jenny
ps- I had a terrible time narrowing to a few favorite Hank and Hunt projects. I guess that means you'll have to go browse through her archives and see all the goodness you're missing... ;) And while you're surfing around, go stop by C.R.A.F.T. and see what the Pretty Parties gloriousness is going on over there today.
I love this!!! Jenny never disappoints. My cupcakes could really use some more decoration. These will certainly delight my kids!
