Mrs.Dudley!

Hi there! I saw your instructions on how to create a tissue paper pomander and it looked super easy! Could you tell me what size you cut the tissue paper to?

Thanks!

Mrs.Dudley - thanks for the page.   I'm thinking about making my own pomanders but using silk flowers instead of tissue flowers.  Looking at your directions, you were able to make 6 flowers per tissue paper sheet and used 8-9 sheets per ball?  So that is 48-54 flowers per pomander?  Just trying to get an idea of how many flowers I'll need and if it's cheaper to just order from someone on Etsy. Thanks!

Yup, that is if you're using 5" or 6" ball styrofoam ball.  If you use a smaller one, like a 4", then you'll need about 35 or so.

Also, thanks jd! And you're welcome!
