DIY Wedding Pom Poms - My Wedding

The most successful wedding DIY project we've had so far is the pom poms. They look amazing! And they are so easy to make that even The Boy got into the DIY craze. All you need is this tutorial from Martha Stewart Weddings, lots of tissue paper {I bought it from an ebay shop}, florist wire {super-cheap from ebay again}, a pair of good scissors, and some ribbon to hang them up. We made large white ones for our London wedding and they puffed up beautifully. The tutorial recommends 8 sheets, but we felt 10 was better. They matched the peonies in our wedding flower arrangements exactly. Now we've just got to make hundreds for our French wedding. We figure they'll travel well if they're still folded up, and then we'll get all the bridesmaids to help puff them out! {Photo Credits: Taken by me, badly!}
