Tuesday Thought: Paper Flowers

Ahh another Tuesday, another Tuesday Thought!  And a darling thought I have for you today.  It's funny how you find something and think it's soooo fabulous...only to go to another blog and see the same thing in one of their posts!  You know what I am talking about, right?  Well that was exactly what happened when I stumbled upon this fabulous idea...
Tuesday Thought
I immediately said - oh I am saving that for my Tuesday Thought post...and then I run across it on The Wedding Chicks right here.  We both must have been looking in the same places ;-))  However, when I originally saw it I had one thought that popped into my head instantly...go figure.

So here is your Tuesday Thought for today:  While these would make fabulous decorations at your event, why don't you use them as escort cards!  With such an amazing array of cardstock these days you could do one color for each table...or have one color of the rainbow at each table with a table number!  Either way, I think they would be over the moon

And what I love most is that these are an easy DIY with the step-by-step directions for three different flowers right here.  But as always there are lots of ways to use - as a backdrop to your ceremony area, on the cake, as bouts for the boys, or group a bunch together and make a bouquet for the girls, or attach a clip and wear in your hair...lots of options really!

Oh you bet your buttons this is another project that just got added to my never ending list of to do's ;-)

  2. I feel your pain on finding a fab idea only to see it featured somewhere it else :) I suppose we are all sort of looking in the same places like you said!

    In any case, I love these and i think your idea of having these as escort cards is fun, fun, fun!!

    Happy Tuesday, Kristi!

  6. These would look dreamy as a hanging-in-midair centerpiece or a dessert table backdrop, too, don't you think?
