When I’m planning a party, I always get stressed about decorations.  I usually struggle to find something off the shelf that I like, which is why I typically go the diy route.  One of my more recent diy party decorations is the paper fan backdrop shown below.

Paper Fan

It only took a few hours and is pretty simple to create.  All I did was order an array of paper fans from eBay in the color scheme I wanted. Then I hot glued the fans to poster boards, which I hung on the wall behind my dessert table.  I ended up liking the look so much, that it’s still up.
