This theme is based on my 2025 Summer Party. My party was the blue version of this Barque Garden, but I made the red version for my YouTube videos and swapped out the blue decor before I took down the theme.
Three of my YouTube videos show how to make the main decorations in this party theme.
I made many of the paper flowers using brown kraft paper rather than the packaging paper shown in the video - it is easier to cut them out en-masse and also less delicate to spray paint.
Make a beautiful paper flower vase for your next Summer Party.

Reuse the brown paper that comes with your packages to make paper flowers for your party decor.
Using stiffer kraft paper is an alternative. Recycled kraft paper is an option rather than un-recycled.
