DIY Gum Drop Wreath

I don't think this wreath would last very long at my house, and a trash

can would have to be close by for the toothpicks.   But this is so cute

and my family would LOVE it.  

I have to make it, and soon, maybe for Spencer's Birthday!

Visit Kiddley for the how to's:

DIY Wall Flowers

Napkins make these flowers more sturdy than tissue paper.

I've made pom poms out of tissue paper before but these look 

like giant flowers and would be lovely hanging right on the wall. 

Don't you love them?
