OMG!!! Coffee Filter Flowers!!!

I love reading other blogs. Especially wedding blogs. Lately I've come across Broke-Ass Bride. For those of you who don't know what this site is about, It's a place for brides who want to make the most of there creativity and save money on their wedding. A really great site.

So I was browsing their facebook page and came across a link for diy coffee filter carnations. I am in love. It seems so easy and you seem to have so much more control over the color you want. Now I have thought about making carnations out of tissue for my wedding. Let me change that. I was planning on doing tissue paper flowers but it's hard to find the color you want since they come in certain colors. With the coffee filter flowers all you need to do is use water color paints to get the color you want. Plus tosser paper can add up since you only get so much in a pack. You can go to Sam's Club or Bj's and buy the amount you need for less. Along with that, the flower look so much fuller then tissue and less delicate.

These things are gorgeous. I can't wait to try theses myself.

  1. I tried to view this on my phone and to no avail but I'm so glad that I tried again on the computer! I'm going to check out the site because we're going to have another wedding ceremony, a larger one, and I'd love to use my creativity to make it one cheap wedding!!
