When you use crepe paper sheets, you can make almost anything! In this article, we are going to look at some unique crepe paper ideas for your wedding. The first project we are going to look at is a flower girl wand these are adorable and perfect for girls ages six to eleven.

To make a flower girl wand you will need a wooden dowel (the length is up to you) the most important part of making a flower girl wand is to be sure to cover the end of the wooden dowel with something soft and cushiony such as a thick piece of foam that is covered in crepe paper the last thing anyone wants is for someone to lose an eye! To decorate the wand parts cover it in a crepe paper sheet. Attach color coordinated or rainbow colored pieces of ribbon they should hang down about three quarters of the length of the dowel. If the child is younger and will not part with their wand make sure the ribbon is short enough not to get stuck on something so the flower girl does not get hurt. To decorate the top of the wand make a pom-pom out of a crepe paper sheet you can use any color or assortment of colors you would like. The pom-pom should be large and overlap the end of the dowel for extra safety cover both ends of wooden dowel with thick foam, and if you would like you can attach slightly smaller pom-poms to each of the pieces of ribbon.

Another unique crepe paper idea is a pom-pom garland(s) to decorate the couple’s car. You can use one color or several different colors to make the crepe paper pom-poms. You can attach the crepe paper pom-poms to a thick piece of craft string or yarn. Then if you like, you can cover a few cans with pom-poms that will drag on the roadway behind the car. You will want at least three strands of crepe paper pom-poms one for the middle and one for each side of the back of the car. If you like, you can also use crepe paper flowers in place of the pom-poms.

Flower topped swizzle sticks are also unique and festive. You can use any flower you like and any color(s) we recommended very small flowers the best way to be sure the flower is the right size is to get a swizzle stick that you will be using at the wedding and measure the size of the flower to the top of the stick it is okay for it to hang over a little. We do not recommend any ribbon or lace to hang down from the flower people most likely do not want to stir their drink with lace.
