Paper Cup Wreath

All the cup wreaths I've seen were made by nesting the cups within each other, so I wanted to try to make one more like a starburst. I got almost all of the items at the dollar store. I used: paper cups, circular floral foam, colored tissue paper, thumb tacks, pins, and scissors.
















I wrapped the tissue paper around the floral foam, tacking it in place, until the whole thing was covered.



Then I cut the cups in half long ways.





















And pinned them to the foam through the bottom of the cup.





















Below is the final wreath. In the end, I didn't even like it enough to use it, but maybe someone will run with the idea and make something better.
