Fun Table Center-Pieces


We had a great time making this little craft for the tables at our block party. "C" found it on pinterest....here was the original pin.



Here is our fun rendition! "J" had the great tutu idea for the little pots, I think we will make these for a certain little sister's baby shower tables! good times!


The blogger from the original pin pointed out how long they took. They definately took us a while....like 3 hours-ish lol! BUT I will totally do them again because we realized the trick is not to begin by glueing all of the cup cake liners so close together. space them out, and then fill in the spaces to get the look you want that would have been way faster. Happy crafting


****I have recently done more of these....for that certain little sisters shower:) I got one done in 20 minutes...by putting the cupcake liners all separate in front of me, holding the ball in one hand, and hot glue gun in the other. I would dab the hot glue on, place it on the ball and hold it in place under the palm of my left hand, while that one was drying I was dabbing another  and adding more and more, continuing to hold in place the newly placed ones while they dried securely! They turned out great and WAY faster****


Also we found these cheap plastic champagne glasses 6 for a buck at the dollar store AND to boot the bottoms are removable! perfect for this craft!


Voila! 20 minutes later!
I think they are nice without dressing up the champagne glass.


But in order to incorporate my sissy's baby colors I did, I havent added the big poofy Teal bow to the one on the left yet
