For the flowers, Billie even included a template and how-to instructions &#8211; though I have to say, with her wonderful pics you really don&#8217;t need the instructions &#8211; you can adapt the idea to any recycled paper.<\/p>\n<p>These flowers? Just think how you could customize these for your house. Make a bouquet scattered on the focal wall above your couch, or in a nook above the baby&#8217;s crib. Or, well, anywhere you want a pretty accent that can be in exactly the colors and dimension you want.  <\/p>\n<p>And: if you&#8217;re having a DIY wedding (and yay for you!) &#8211; a wall or nook of these flowers, all in whites or your wedding colors, would be lovely. Maybe each of your guests could sign one! Then save them, pressed in a memory book. <\/p>\n<p>This is the best of DIY, and pretty cool recycling too. Think about it:  Recycle the paper.  Reuse the pages. Rethink how they&#8217;re used. And create a really cool decoration for your house &#8211; or your wedding &#8211; at the same time. <\/p>\n<p>Win!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recycle &#8211; reuse &#8211; rethink.
