DIY Project: Paper Tissue Flags from Chelsea at Frolic!

close-up-tissue-paper-flags

These adorable flags would be charming for guests to wave at the ceremony or as the bride and groom leave the wedding. You can also decorate cakes and cupcakes with them. Cost each is around 10 cents!

Supplies:
different colors of tissue paper
skewers from the grocery store
hot glue gun
scissors

Steps:

1. Cut different shapes for your flags in different colors. We made streamers, rectangles with fringe, and triangles.
2. Leave some room on the end of your cut-out to wrap it around the skewer.
3. Secure with a couple dots of glue.

Tips:
The beauty of these flags is in the organic shapes, so don’t worry about making perfectly straight lines and triangles.

Emily and Stephen’s Lazy Afternoon Engagement Session by Michelle Johnson Photography

This engagement session by Michelle Johnson Photography makes me look forward to lazy summer days filled with picnics and walks through the park. Emily and Stephen, who first met in junior high, spent the afternoon playing Scrabble and reading through romantic vow-inspiring books.

Aubrey Joy Photography recently sent me this very pretty wedding and I am so grateful. This wedding is full of really inspirational, lovely details. I think the idea of the ring pillow in the cutout book is my very favorite (very creative!). Enjoy!
