It's no secret that everyone loves fresh flowers, but in recent years, fake flowers have blossomed from a budding trend into a full-grown sensation. In fact, these days, everyone from decorators to design bloggers are embracing faux flowers in their projects, at their events, and on social media. And for wonderful reason! Not only are they easier on the wallet than fresh flowers, but they'll obviously last much longer, and you won't have you worry about any wilting at your warmest summer dinner party.
Yes, handcrafted paper blooms offer one of the best ways to achieve that sought-after fresh flower look without any of the upkeep. But instead of purchasing artificial flowers-which can be just as (or even more) costly than the real deal-consider crafting your own DIY paper flowers from tissue paper, crepe paper, and even everyday household items. From beautiful flower arrangements to brighten up your home to whimsical flower crowns to wear for special occasions, the only limit to what you can create is your imagination, since you can make all types of flowers in various sizes.
