Paper Pompoms and Flower Balls!

Waiting for packages in the mail is sooooo painful and exciting!!!
I'm waiting for fun art for my girls' rooms and it can't come fast enough!!!
A trip to the Hart dollar store proved satisfying. I was looking for a simple yet charming idea for a mobile like decoration for my baby to look at while laying in her bed.
Pinterest never disappoints when it come to ideas and DIYs. Here is the step by step on how to make the paper pompoms. Very inexpensive yet adorable!

I also found the floral balls at Homesense in Kelowna and although I was in love with them, they were way way way to expensive! Even for my compulsive shopping habits.
 I was a bit nervous that they were going to look crappy but overall, I think they turned out pretty cute!

I believe I could've made them even cheaper than I did had I looked around for a good deal on flowers, however this large belly and small toddler make such things unappealing.
I am quite pleased with the outcome. I believe my sweet baby girl will really enjoy looking up at the colors hanging above her bed. Took some fiddling around to get them properly spaced and hung, but worth it...even the backache from the up and down of the ladder!
All Miss E needs is a bucket of water and some rocks and her life is grand!!!
This little lady just loves being outside and is very independent. She plays hard and it is very entertaining to watch her mind work!
