\"Paperball4\"<\/a>Autumn is coming and with it lots of crisp and fresh apples. For a tea time invitation I hid some apples in woven paper balls which I placed in a little chip basket. You can buy those strips cut and folded but I took leftovers of different papers to cut them myself. For a small apple you need 4 strips with a length of 9-10 inches and a width of 0.5 inch. All strips are punched at both ends and in their middle. Therefor fold each strip and punch both ends at once, open again and punch in the middle. Stick together 4 strips with the help of a jiffy clip and then place the apple in the middle of the paper “star”. If the stipes are long enough the open ends of all strips can be attached here. A small ribbon bow prevents the ball from reopening. If stipes are too short just take a thin twig (I always keep a certain stock of those materials at home) and place it beside to loop up the paper strips. Cut a small leaf of green cardstock and place it beneath the little bow. For an autumnal table setting these apples can easily replace the traditional place cards. Simply write the name of your guests on that little green leaf. To avoid toppling of your apple pass your jiffy clip through a paper circle first.
\nFor some further decoration I chose different paper leftovers. Pictures and description to follow within the next days.<\/p>\n
