We had to share this brilliant DIY paper flower tutorial with you. If only so you can fantasise about prancing around fields with giant flowers. Hopefully, you will actually take the time to make them, too.

The idea came from a US couple called Nata and Jess, who married in 2011. Inspired by a template created by Morgan Levine on Martha Stewart, the couple created giant paper flowers in place of traditional floral arrangements. It's cheap, effective and personal.

A special thank you to the couple for the tutorial, and to Jen Campbell, the brains behind LA-based website Green Wedding Shoes for sharing the story with us.

Enjoy...
