Martha Stewart Poms {tutorial}

I recently came across the Martha Stewart site and if you love cooking, craft, diy and the like you will find plenty of recipes, stealworthy ideas and freebies here! Also plenty of wedding ideas aswell, I love these tissue paper poms, they are very easy to make and would look great for almost any celebration.  I hope to be making some bright green ones for my sons fourth birthday party in June.  If your hosting a mother's day party this weekend these would be perfect! Look at the little ones for napkin holders...

Step 1

Stack eight 20-by-30-inch sheets of tissue. Make 1 1/2-inch-wide accordion folds, creasing with each fold.

Step 2

Fold an 18-inch piece of floral wire in half, and slip over center of folded tissue; twist. With scissors, trim ends of tissue into rounded or pointy shapes

Step 3

Separate layers, pulling away from center one at a time.

 

Step 4

Bend wire into a loop to fit around napkin, and twist end around loop to secure
