Ha ha! Great question Sana! Nope their names aren’t Bean and Turtle. That’s what I call them on here to give them a bit of anonymity. Thank you so much for visiting and for taking the time to comment.

Best Wishes,

Crystal

Your kid’s pictures are adorable but please tell me that you didn’t really name them Bean and Turtle.

People are always in aw which suprises me since I started making these years agoe. Back in the 70 they were a big part of weddings and showers with kleenex.

Thank you so much for visiting Charlene!

LOL. No their real names aren’t Turtle and Bean. Both are nicknames. 🙂

Best Wishes,

Crystal

Hi Pamela,

Yes you can definitely cut the tissue paper in half for smaller flowers. I’ve done it the way you suggested as well as square and both are lovely, just different sizes. When I do smaller ones I usually use less pieces of tissue paper too. The Martha Stewart ones are lovely, but trust me you can make a ton of handmade ones for the price of one of the Martha Stewart ones!

Best Wishes,

Crystal

Hi again, Crystal. I was wondering….although I love how big the flowers are, they’re too big for our table. Would you suggest just cutting the tissue paper in half to get 6 inch flowers, instead of 12 inch? On the other tutorial she cuts squares but wouldn’t that, possibly, be too small? I just saw today at Joanne’s Fabric Store that Martha Stewart has packages of these all made up so you can just unfold them. She has a very cute one with small brown boxes that you put the flower on top of…..and tissue paper green leaves. I was tempted to buy them cause they were so cute, but I’m continuing with this project. Thanks! Pamela

Thank you, Crystal, for getting back with me. I, also, looked at the other tutorial you have on here and found that you can make them with different colors in the same bow. I might try that, as well. Thanks for letting me know how big they are…that helps me figure out how many I need. I’ll send you a picture from the party.
Thanks, again…Pamela

Hi Pamela,

Oh that would be so pretty. They are great for decorating with. I love doing the flowers in variegating colors too for a different effect. 🙂 The flowers I’d say are approximately 12 inches across. You can also cut your tissue paper into smaller pieces and use less layers to make smaller flowers. I’d love to see pictures of how they turn out!

Best Wishes,

Crystal
