Im trying to decorate the top of my tv for Valentines Day without spending a small fortune. I've never decorated for valentines since my hubby and I do not celebrate it but, Meredith is getting old enough that she likes to decorate for everything and anything and likes to make stuff too!
I followed these easy steps from this website to make my crepe paper roses. http://www.theidearoom.net/2011/01/tissue-rosette-kissing-balls.html
I didnt have a ball of any kind so I grabbed some ugly christmas wrapping paper from the closet and crumpled it up into a ball, then I wrapped it up with tape to hole it together. like this.
Then I just started to glue my paper roses on with elmers school glue. I wasnt real sure what I was going to do with my rose ball but ideas started to come to me. I ended up just pouring red food coloring in with some rice and mixing it till I liked the color. Poured my rice into a vase and sat my roses on top! Love it! All I had to buy was the crepe paper so total cost was only around $2 yay!
