Don't forget to enter our GIVEAWAY for Rose Valentine Earrings! They are super cute!
I wanted a simple, but inexpensive, Valentine center piece for my living room. I've seen different rosette balls done with crepe paper and other fun types of paper. Here are a few of the rosette balls that my boys helped me make.
I decided to use tissue paper. First cut them into strips about 3 inches wide. I only had white tissue paper, so we whipped out my stamp pads and added some color. Nothing fancy, just a few fingerprints. You won't see the fingerprints once you make the rosettes.
To make the rosettes, I tied a loose knot at one end. Then twist and turn. Hot glue the bottom of the rosette once it is formed.
So fun and easy to do. Now I need to make a few more to fill my basket...
I added a ribbon around the plain white one because the more I looked at it, the more it looked like a ball of toilet paper. Not cute! So once the ribbon was added, it looked like a cute rosette ball...with a ribbon. Go figure! :)

These look awesome, and you are so right you cannot tell they are finger prints (my kids would love this part). I cannot wait to try this tonight, I snagged some vday tissue paper at dollar store today- Ahhmazing!
Voted for the fence!

Great job! These are so cute!
I guess you'd have to believe them when they say, "The rosette ate my homework!" LOL! Very pretty! I host a weekly meme called Thematic Thursday. Each week has a theme and this would be perfect for this week's Valentine's theme.
