From dahlias to lilies and roses, paper flower wall décor is the perfect way to create incorporate a variety of blooms in your wedding. For brides that don’t want to play by the rules, one of the biggest trends this season is paper flower wall décor.
Given that most paper flower wall décor is DIY, they can be mixed and matched according to the theme of your wedding.
In addition to wall décor, these paper flowers are also great for centre-pieces, bouquets and jewellery.
They also provide the added advantage of preserving these flowers long after the big day. All you need to do is take petal-shaped crepe paper and roll them inwards to create a flower and attach them to a stem.
However, peonies are seasonal so a great way to have them at your wedding any time of the year is to make them with paper. This video tutorial shows you to create peonies for paper flower wall décor.
Curl the pointed edge around the step and attach each petal higher than the previous one. This stunning flower is the focal point of numerous bouquet arrangements for its unique shape and bright colour.
However, they are only available during the summer months like June and September so fall and winter brides may find it challenging to incorporate Dahlias into their floral arrangements. Thankfully, paper flowers give you the liberty to recreate these seasonal blooms at any time of the year.
You can include this bloom in your paper flower wall décor with the help of this tutorial video. The flower requires longer petals that are pleated from the bottom of the stem all the way to the top. Moreover, if your wedding theme includes a lot of pastels and sober tones, a lily can give you that creative edge. Paper flower lilies are super easy to make as shown in this video.
DIY paper flowers are the perfect addition to every wedding thanks to the versatility they provide.
