Learn how to make a DIY hanging tissue paper flower garland with Dollar Tree supplies.

This bright and colorful DIY hanging tissue paper flower garland was made for my daughter’s fiesta themed graduation party. 

This same process can be used to make any color garland that you like. I plan to pick up fall color tissue paper this weekend to make a fall banner for my mantel.

Here is the simple tutorial to make your own.

How To Make DIY Hanging Tissue Paper Flower Garland

I have never made tissue paper flowers before and I have to say it was a lot easier than I thought.

There will definitely be more of these in soft colors that I am drawn to! Let me show you have easy it is.

The tissue paper was bought at Dollar Tree and worked fine for this, but if I was going to keep it up for any length of time I would probably buy it from the craft store so it has a little more weight.

Cut the paper…

Simply cut the paper in four sections. If you have good fabric scissors or a paper cutter you can cut them all at once like I did. It makes it so much easier.

You can sort colors however you like, but I chose to include all the colors to  make it bright and festive! I used about 10 pieces for each flower.

Fold the paper…

Next fold it accordion style and use a piece of floral wire to tie it in the center. As I am hanging it, I attached fishing wire to each one.

Cut the ends…

You can also cut the ends to give it a shape that you like, either oval or pointy like I did. I plan to go with oval next.

Fluff the paper…

Next, it’s as simple as just fluffing each tissue paper out on each side! As it is tissue paper, just be careful not to tear it.

Hang the garland…

Hang the garland wherever you like. You can definitely make a bunch of these in whatever size you like in no time.

Plus, you can’t beat the cost. Imagine large ones hanging from the ceiling in a little girl’s room. How about a decorative mobile made out of tissue paper flowers?

The possibilities are endless! Be sure to check out the other paper projects shared below! Have a great day!

#6, the gold stands out against the royal blue and I love that it's not a traditional fall color.

Number 6 is my favorite because it is denim. I love denim and anything that is country looking and rustic. Let’s praise Jesus Christ for everything that He gives us! Have a blessed day!

I like the way #6 came out. They’re all great ideas and the pink pumpkin was a close second.
