Cherry Blossom Ball by Tomoko Fuse

I have already made Cherry Blossom Ball twice, but somehow I found myself folding it again. And not just folding but even decorating it, which I have to say doesn’t happen too often. Turned out quite nice! http://goorigami.com/modular-origami/cherry-blossom-ball/2468

Tissue Paper Pom-Poms How-To - Introduction - MarthaStewart.com

Dahlia-like pom-poms appear to float in the air, imparting a cheerful radiance to a rehearsal dinner, bridal shower, or casual reception. Echoing the vibrant hanging puffs, pom-pom napkin rings in citrus shades adorn each place setting. Square glass vessels covered in sunset-hued tissue cast a soft glow. Joyous bursts of color dance above a table, imparting a cheerful radiance to a rehearsal dinner, bridal shower, or casual reception. The dahlialike pom-poms appear to float in the air; in reality they are hung from the ceiling with monofilament.

Do you remember making folded paper fortune tellers when you were in grade school? They were quite the fad for a while, and my pals and I had a lot of fun inventing fortunes to write inside each little point. Now... an example of fortune tellers all grown up! http://www.allthingspaper.net/2011/08/faceted-paper-lamp.html

DIY Inspiration: Wooden Tape Dispenser

Love washi tape? Perhaps you have a growing collection and need a way to organize it?
The lotus flower is not only beautiful, it also holds great symbolic power. In Japan, it is sometimes said that the lotus represents overcoming a great struggle. The flower begins very small at the bottom of a dark and muddy pond. It must grow upwards, through the muck - the darkness, to reach the surface - the light. Once it reaches the surface of the water, the lotus blossoms into a simply gorgeous flower. Want to try folding your own?

You'd think after making hundreds of these for my wedding, I'd be completely sick of them. But I can't help it, I love them so much!

You might remember me mentioning this a while ago -- the zhua zhou tray, an old Chinese tradition of placing significant objects in front of a baby on the first birthday. Whichever object the baby picks in supposed to predict future interests, a career, or personality traits. You can read a little more about the history of the actual zhua zhou tradition here .
More and more weddings are including "photobooths" as part of their guest experience.
