Here are a set of 3 I made from a bundle pack of tissue I already had. Well, I have LOTS of tissue; it's in a large gift bag which I can never find when I need it. Fortunately I still have the Christmas boxes out so it was a little easier on me. I like the gold and black scheme of this paper. I did scrunch it up because I thought the crumpled paper look was just nicer, and maybe would hide some mistakes better. But I do plan on trying some with fresh crisp paper,too! My grandson used some crumpled up lime green tissue I already had, and I let him use a star stamp and gold paint to decorate his. My daughter made one of black tissue that has silver glitter in it; it looks really great! And her friend made one of burgandy tissue, which is equally awesome.
Let me just say..you HAVE to use the modeling clay!! I found that out the hard way :D But Hoss bought me a pack that had twice as much in it as I needed for .97 cents. The popsicle sticks were 150 or so for $1, and you can buy large packs of tissue also for a dollar, in many colors and prints. The pretty gold and black I have cost a little more, under $3, but has 2 sheets of 5 prints in it, and I think I got it at Michaels.
Here they are hanging in a corner of my bedroom, with the light on.
My grandsons is in the top right corner!
And here they are with the bed room light off and the battery votives on.
Try this, it's easy and a really nice decoration.
