Make: Set Your Table with Giant Paper Roses

by Designing Mom Sara at Creative Jewish Mom

Paper Cabbage Rose Large on Table

Looking for a unique and inexpensive (very) table decor idea? This might be it! Giant paper roses combined with smaller ones too, are elegant and artsy, and look modern and vintage all at the same time, so they'll suit just about any style. The key is the right paper! I used some old dress making pattern paper that the art supply store actually gave me for free rather than tossing it in the garbage. It had yellowed with age — perfect! You'll need very large sheets or a roll of heavy weight tissue paper, preferably creme, though drafting vellum might work nicely as well. Experiment and create your own lovely versions!

These are lovely. May I ask what paper you used (tissue)? The petals looks nice and translucent but stiff like wax paper. Thank you!
