And how about these lovely dyed coffee filters garlands by Pamela Garrison which we first spotted via Creature Comforts? (For smaller ones, use colorful cupcake cups!)
These hanging paper flowers are made from old catalogues (may we suggest Anthropologie catalogues?) from Zakkia Life via Creature Comforts -- click here for super simple DIY instructions.
