• Making a Valentine Paper Flower

    Who wouldn’t love to be given this gigantic paper flower on Valentine’s Day this year? It’s incredible! Find the full tutorial here on Green Wedding Shoes.

    A few other flower themed craft tutorials seen around the web:

    Hanging Heart Charms at MADE

    Mini Crepe Paper Flower Favors at Oh Happy Day

    DIY Wedding Day Flower Wall at A Beautiful Mess

    I feel like I’ve been out of the loop a bit with the redesign and the two weeks we were away.

    Any brilliant tutorials/craft projects out there I missed? I’d love to hear your favorites!

      Wow! What a statement those make. At the risk of being a self promoting jerk, I am really happy with my latest craft project…Ombre canvas tote bags inspired by VDay :)

      I love those hanging heart charms from MADE. We did our own version yesterday.

      Oh wow, that giant flower is amazing! I’m a teacher, and it would be super fun to make these with my students (who are 17, but I’m confident that they’d love this).

      So pretty and so simple (well it looks simple to make anyway, not always the same thing!) :)

      This flower is gorgeous. It’d look good almost any day of the year. If only there was a sunflower tutorial…(I’m obsessed with sunflowers).
