  • I bought a bunch on Trash to Treasure.... which seems to have disappeared with the new format? 

    Our venue has hugenormous vaulted ceilings and I'm using both the puffs and lanterns- I like how lanterns look, but I'm not going to pay $3-5 each for as many as I want! (So I'm mixing them up- I think it'll look cute!)

  • I used the martha stewart instructions to make these for my middle school library. They were very easy (I used dollar store tissue paper), very popular with the students, and many kids called "dibs" on which one they were taking home with them at the end of the year. They were very easy to make and very pretty! Just do a few practice rounds first & tie them securely at the center. I'd say you definitely get  a lot of bang for your buck!
