"Paper Flower" by sabine

"Paper Flower"

81 / 365
Last Christmas my daughter and I made a whole bunch of these paper flowers out of white tissue paper and decorated a tree in the garden with them. I liked them so much I decided to keep the flowers. Now they make regular appearances in our home.

@yonnie thank you. It did look really nice. We also hung little home-made lanterns (glass jars with a tea light inside) in that tree. It looked magical. We were able to sit outside in the decorated garden for dinner on Christmas Eve. It is just one of the great joys of living in Australia and celebrating Christmas in Summer.
