DIY: Hanging Flower Cones

This adorable and easy DIY project for hanging flower cones could be super cute in several places throughout a wedding. At the ceremony as pew or chair decorations, hanging on the doorknobs of the church doors, venue doors, or even restroom doors to pretty up the bathroom.

Materials:
Medium-weight paper (find at Michael's or a specialty paper store like Paper Source)
Decorative scissors - scallop shape
Craft glue
Wide hole punch
1/2 inch wide ribbon

How to:
To make flower cones, cut medium-weight paper into a 7-inch square.
Use decorative scissors to scallop edge and a pencil to form tip.
Secure outer flap of cone with craft glue.
Punch six holes, 1 inch apart, beginning at top front center; thread 20-inch length of 1/2-inch-wide ribbon through holes.
Tie bow at front, and leave a 7-inch loop at the back.
Put some fresh flowers wrapped in plastic wrap, plastic bag or florists' "flower tube" into cone.
Hang and enjoy!
