Giveaway–Paper Pom-poms and Other Party Decorations: 35 Step-by-step Projects to Make With Tissue, Paper and Card

Leave a comment in today’s post by January 8th, 2016 and you are in the running for this beautiful paper crafting book that is filled with so many great projects I don’t know which one I am going to make first!

Open to U. S. residents only please.

Discover how to create a spectacular setting for your next party with these 35 fabulous projects. From eye-catching pom-poms to pretty garlands and stunning giant flowers, you’ll want to make every one of these wonderful paper decorations.

Begin with the classic pom-poms–popular in the 60s and 70s, but enjoying a stylish revival today. Make them in different sizes and colors for a real impact. Learn, too, how to make honeycomb balls, a star piñata, and rosette snowflakes–all beautiful hanging decorations that will look great hung from the ceiling, in a window, or on a Christmas tree. In chapter 2, you’ll find garlands and bunting–why not try the cupcake garland, using cupcake cases to sit around fairy lights and look like twinkling flowers? Or have a go at the vintage book bunting that would add character at a themed party, or even in your workspace.

Finally, create impressive centerpieces–giant roses and daffodils, a coffee filter flower wreath, and waxed floating lilies are among the striking designs. The projects use a variety of paper materials, including tissue, cardstock, and crepe paper, as well as recycled magazine pages and gift-wrap–and no specialist craft experience is needed. Step-by-step photography will show you exactly what to do. You’ll also find out about all the different types of paper available–such as water-resistant tissue paper, and two-tone paper that has a different color on each side of it–as well as where to buy them. Plus, every template you’ll need is included at the back of the book.
