Petal Cones
January 19th, 2007 @ 5:33 pm by Mrs. Butterfly
For those of you who asked about the petal cones, here is the website where I got the directions.
I used the 8.5″ x11″ paper template, but cut off the bottom square area to make the cones. I got the paper and the ribbons from Kate’s Paperie. You will need a paper cutter, a self-healing mat, and some adhesive. I used my trusty 3M ATG tape gun (recycled from making my invitations).
The only difficult part is trying to glue the cone into place, while keeping the tip of the cone in a perfect point. I found it helpful to first roll the paper into a cone shape. Even though making 20 of these took me several hours, they were totally worth it for that one single photograph of us walking down the aisle, being showered in petals.
I am so glad Mrs. Bee talked me into making it.
