How-To by A Good Affair Wedding & Event Production Photos: Luminaire Images Supplies: 2- 12”x12” sheets of paper Glue stick or Elmer’s Hot Glue Gun Scissors Step 1: Take your 12”x12” sheets of paper, and cut in half.
Step 2: Fold the 6”x12” papers accordion style with ½” folds. Step 3: After you finish folding all the pieces, glue the end of one piece to the end of a second piece so that they overlap. Step 4: After gluing all your pieces together to form one long accordion paper strip, take the two ends and join those together in the same fashion. Step 5: Making sure the glue has dried and all pieces are secure, stand your ring upwards, and gently press the top edge outwards, with the bottom edge remaining on your work surface. Step 6: If you are using two-sided paper, decide which side will be the front or back. Step 7: To secure your paper rosette, take your hot glue gun (it sets faster) and put a dollop of glue right in the center.
End Product: A beautiful 12” Paper Rosette! Xoxo. Girly Me (oh my gosh!! I’m so making these!!) Washington DC Wedding Blog ~ DIY Origami Bouquet Tutorial. I am SUPER excited for today’s DIY Wednesday tutorial feature coming to us from Lindsey of Elusive Photo Design.
You all know how much I love the unique, different, and offbeat when it comes to weddings [especially in the Washington, DC area], so naturally, I jumped out of my seat when Lindsey sent me this: DIY Origami Paper Flower Bouquet From Lindsey: These kusudama origami bridal bouquets are remarkably simple to make, and can be made to your taste using a variety of different types, colors, patterns and sizes of paper. I recommend doing a few practice flowers with pre-cut, thin origami paper first.
As someone who didn’t use live flowers in my own wedding, I am always pumped when I find other ideas for non-floral bouquets. I love how unique this bouquet is, and that it’s a DIY bouquet!
