Cheap Tricks II
These tricks are so easy and add tons of punch.
First is the paper Lanterns. They're a super inexpensive lighting option. I love them for their many and unusual shapes. And...most importantly, they're a blank canvas waiting to stand out under the quick hand of a glue gun and some embellishments. Here we used fabric daisies but scrapbook flowers or gems would be great, too. Paper lanterns are found in so many places these days, but a wonderful resource is Pearl River Trading. They offer them in tons of colors and tons of sizes. The wallpaper border was a snap, too. Heavy card stock and a color copier. A little spray mount and it's done.
