How To Use Tissue Paper to Decorate Your FDP Disposables

Using tissue paper to decorate with FDP disposable dinnerware is a great way to enhance the look and feel of any event or occasion. Not only is tissue paper affordable and versatile, but it's also available in a wide range of colors, making it easy to coordinate with your event's theme or color scheme. In this blog post, we'll explore how to use different colors of tissue paper to create stunning table settings for a variety of events and occasions.

Color and Mood


The first thing to consider when choosing colors for your table setting is the mood you want to create. Different colors can evoke different emotions and set the tone for your event. For example, red is a bold and passionate color that can create a sense of excitement and energy, while blue is a calming and serene color that can create a more relaxed atmosphere. Here are a few examples of how to use color to create different moods:


Calm and Serene: If you want to create a calming and serene atmosphere, choose soft colors like blue, green, or lavender. These colors are perfect for events like baby showers, bridal showers, or afternoon tea parties.


Bold and Passionate: If you want to create a bold and passionate atmosphere, choose vibrant colors like red, orange, or hot pink. These colors are perfect for events like Valentine's Day parties, anniversary celebrations, or bachelorette parties.


Elegant and Sophisticated: If you want to create an elegant and sophisticated atmosphere, choose neutral colors like white, silver, or gold. These colors are perfect for events like weddings, black-tie galas, or corporate events.

Mixing Colors


Once you've chosen your color palette, it's time to start mixing and matching. Mixing colors can create a visually stunning and dynamic table setting. When mixing colors, it's best to stick to two or three colors to avoid overwhelming your guests. For example, you could choose two complementary colors like blue and orange or three colors like pink, gold, and white. To create depth and interest, use different shades of the same color. For example, you could use light blue, navy, and teal tissue paper to create a stunning ombre effect.

Using Colors for Different Events


Now that you know how to use color to create different moods and mix and match colors, let's explore how to use colors for different events.


Weddings: Weddings are a perfect occasion to use soft and romantic colors like blush, ivory, and gold. You could create a stunning centerpiece by using white dinnerware and wrapping it with blush and gold tissue paper. Add a few white roses or peonies for a stunning and elegant look.


Baby Showers: Baby showers are a great occasion to use pastel colors like baby blue, pink, and yellow. Use these colors to create a soft and serene atmosphere. You could wrap our solid color pastel plastic plates with baby blue tissue paper and tie it off with a yellow ribbon.
