A couple of weeks ago Hobbycraft sent me some craft supplies which included a really colourful pack of tissue paper in beautiful Spring colours. I’ve been wondering what to make with them and today my daughter decided to create a tissue paper wreath, just like pretty blossom and perfect for Spring.
We had fun trying something new, so we thought we’d share the steps with you. You won’t need much equipment – tissue paper, scissors, PVA glue and a paper plate.
I cut the centre out of the paper plate, cut the tissue paper into small squares and poured some glue into a small container.
My daughter covered the paper wreath in glue and then, I think the technical term is scrunched, pieces of tissue paper and stuck them on the wreath.
She did this until the whole wreath was covered. She was pretty pleased with her tissue paper wreath.
I love the colours and I think it will look really pretty hung on our front door.
