But you need so many layers for the darn thing! I even went to Big Lots but they only had garrish holiday prints. It was so out of the way too, DH said I wasted more gas $ than I would have saved. :/ That's just how my luck is with most DIY projects! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-every-diyed-tassel-garlands#post-505620 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 14:16:13 +0000 Mrs. Pen 505620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: hahaha where are you buying your tissue paper?!?! I just get mine at target! </p> <p>@regberadaisy: well the tutorial I was using but the creases in the middle of each tassel... maybe I need to try a different method. good thing TP is cheap :-P</p> <p>@anniegurumi: hmmm that could work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-every-diyed-tassel-garlands#post-505418 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 12:50:59 +0000 MrsBrewer 505418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: I made those same pom pom balls for my wedding! They were the pew decorations, and I ended up buying tissue paper in bulk from an online store. I have SOOO much extra. but it was sooo cheap! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-every-diyed-tassel-garlands#post-505384 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 12:35:35 +0000 shopaholic 505384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: Wow! That's such a good deal! I remember making those Martha Stewart pom pom balls for my BFF's shower and spent SO much $$ on tissue paper! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-every-diyed-tassel-garlands#post-504788 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 08:43:20 +0000 Smurfette 504788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I made the ones in the link Photojane posted and I just made sure to cut on the folds. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-every-diyed-tassel-garlands#post-504765 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 08:25:36 +0000 regberadaisy 504765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: did you try the way the tutorial posted? It looks like she's cutting at all the folds and folding at the main fold. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-every-diyed-tassel-garlands#post-504652 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 00:44:18 +0000 anniegurumi 504652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about ironing them in between two thick towels? haha I have never tried it.... but maybe that would work? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-every-diyed-tassel-garlands#post-504651 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 00:43:27 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 504651@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: haha what if they caught on fire.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-every-diyed-tassel-garlands#post-504650 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 00:42:51 +0000 Mrs. Pen 504650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: it's only .99 a package for 6 sheets and you can make 12 tassels from one package!</p> <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: not sure... Thought about it but a little nervous to try it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-every-diyed-tassel-garlands#post-504649 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 00:39:48 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 504649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>can you iron he tissue? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-every-diyed-tassel-garlands#post-504640 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 00:08:51 +0000 shopaholic 504640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've thought about it, but every time I go tobuy tissue paper it's so expensive, I figure it's probably cheaper &amp; easier to buy them on Etsy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-every-diyed-tassel-garlands#post-504593 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 23:08:34 +0000 photojane 504593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>By the looks of it, on the HB tutorial, she cut on the folds. I haven't tried it yet, but I favorited this post for the future...</p> <p><a href="http://www.hellobee.com/2012/07/23/party-tassel-garland/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hellobee.com/2012/07/23/party-tassel-garland/</a></p> <p>Is that how you're doing it? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-every-diyed-tassel-garlands#post-504582 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 23:01:13 +0000 Mrs. Pen 504582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: no, the way they're made you have to fold lengthwise which puts the creases smack dab in the middle of EACH tassel. ugh!!!</p> <p>And metallic paper is folded the exact same way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-every-diyed-tassel-garlands#post-504580 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 22:59:07 +0000 regberadaisy 504580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha figure it out and tell me! How about using the metal-y paper instead? Or can't you fold with the creases? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-every-diyed-tassel-garlands#post-504561 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 22:42:20 +0000 Mrs. Pen 504561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Trying to make some... but all of the creases on the tissue paper from being folded in the packaging makes them look like a crumpled mess when finished! I don't like that look at all... there must be someway to do it as all the pinterest and etsy pictures are not crumpled!</p> <p>ideas? </p>
