Silk Paper

When the weather is grey and dreary, it's nice to get your mind off things by, for example, being creative, that way you forget about the wind and weather, just before there aren't enough hours in the day once you get going. There is fun to be had when you sit down around the table with family or friends and create together, it's also how we find inspiration in each other, there is always someone who comes up with a good idea or two and it takes off from there.

Flowers, tassels or silk paper pompoms in many colours

There are many possibilities with tissue paper, it's everything from wrapping to occasion cards or really nice table decorations. If you're having a party but don't want all the table flowers after the party, you can make your own flower out of tissue paper in different colours or crepe paper, it can add a nice flourish to the table if you think there's a bit missing, it could also be placed on the plate as a sort of place card. Or if you're having a party for the class after winning a competition, bring out the pom poms and tassels so there's cheering throughout the party. Silk and crepe paper come in a wide range of colours and, when combined, you can create many beautiful things.

Decorate your home with tissue paper

If you need some decoration for your home, you can save your jam jars or beetroot jars, wash them well and remove the paper around the glass, then decorate the inside of the glass with tissue paper in beautiful colours and then put a candle in the bottom to create the most beautiful light effects with different colours. Or if you have received a beautiful flower but don't have a flowerpot for it, good advice can be expensive, but with a bag around the flower to hold the water and some tissue paper you can easily and quickly have it decorated so you can proudly display it on your windowsill.

You may also be tired of looking at your picture frames, freshen them up by wrapping some crepe paper around the frame and then putting the picture back in, it can give the picture a whole new look and new life.

You can be creative all year round

There are lots of traditions all year round and with the family you can sit down and do lots of creative things, it could be at Easter when we make the carnival rice, and Easter chicks and caress trays, it can be beautifully decorated with tissue paper.

But there doesn't have to be an occasion, you can sit down at the weekend and get everything out of storage and start being creative, for example you can make squid hanging from the ceiling in the bathroom, just use an emptied kitchen roll or toilet roll and put narrow strips of tissue paper or crepe paper in the end that faces down and paint the paper tube in bright colours to match the bathroom.

Tissue paper for wrapping gifts

If you have been invited out and are bringing a hostess gift, you can be creative here too, you can spend some time wrapping the gift really nicely, you may have various scraps of tissue paper lying around and with a little glue you can put together your very own designed gift wrap and seal with leather cord to hold the paper together, this way the gift will be received with great delight and admiration for the beautiful wrapping.
