While paroosing the folders on my computer I found an old word document which I saved back in the day with images and directions of how to make these awesome paper flowers. Wouldn't they be a fun Spring party decoration?
And now for the big How-To!
You can use gusseted bags of any size for the hanging flowers; each flower is made from six bags.
1. Fold the bottom of a bag in on itself. Cut above the lower fold, removing the bag's bottom. Trim the top into a petal shape.
2. Punch a hole about 1/4 inch from the bottom. Repeat process with five more bags. Apply double-sided tape to the front edges of a bag. Place another bag on top, and repeat to stack all of the bags. Draw a length of string through the hole in the stack; knot it loosely.
3. Pull the top and bottom bags around to form a flower shape.
4. Join the end petals with double-sided tape. Suspend by string.
I beleive the images and text are from Martha Stewart.
