Spring Fling and More

These are two hoops that I am going to hang in the pavilion of the festival in a couple of weeks. I used a tutorial from the Spark The Event Online (Spark Your Christmas 2011) to make it and I will be hanging paper lampshades in the centers. 

I am also work on a bunch of these junk bows on a massively larger scale for the event as well. 

I also wanted to share this with you that I found over at www.incourage.me

Loopy Paper Flowers

These paper loops are for a large project but I wanted to try out the concept on a smaller scale. So I made a few smaller strips and made a few that are the size of my hand. 

Here is how they turned out. I love hi adding a little pop of color with a fringe flower really adds to the overall look of the flower. 

Another Sneak Peek

I have finished 10 of these and have a few more to go and I changed them up a little after this picture. I put vintage spools and threads in the jars to make them look complete. 

I have made so much garland I think I could decorate Times Square. This is mini paper bunting that I made with one sheet of about 8 different papers and just cut down. It turned out to be about 50 feet of garland with this.  

I have so much more that I have finished or that is in the works. I will post more tomorrow. 

Busy Busy Busy

I have been super busy around hear lately, and I know I haven't been posting as regularly as I was.

I wanted to share a few of the things that are keeping me super busy. 

April 12 I will be hosting an Spring Fling and Festival at Gaither's Plantation. And so I am making all the decorations for the event. There will be over 5000 paper flowers other paper creations throught the venue. This is an arts, crafts, music, and food, festival. 

These are made from recycled magazine pages. And they will have a medallion on the center of each and be connected as a garland. 

I have completed about 500 of these coffee filter flowers. 

We are right at 100 of these fringe paper flowers. 

I'm up to over 500 of these paper cones and I will be using them to make a few large statement flowers to place on a large wall. 

These 3.5 inch circle have been turned into over 30 feet of garland. 

Tomorrow I will share some of the finished arrangements and other projects.
