All done - the Rosettes, 5 white and 2 pink; Flower Ball; and Bird Cage.
Not that I was super busy this week but I did have a few things to do, that the thought of setting this all on the table - the way I pictured it - on Friday didn't happen.
I quickly did a first look:
then I did this:
and this was how it looked for breakfast:
On Friday my sister's grandsons came, then this morning my friend Miss Emily brought me some more kids to play with. My sister didn't think pretty little tea cups would mix with a bunch of kids. She exchanged the cups for the pot & I was the pot is prefect fit. Then came breakfast and more kids, so playing with the table right now is not a good idea. When I can get to it that tea pot will be included.
Making of the FuFu: I've realized that it really is a thought process to explain even with pictures how one makes... FuFu Stuff (my official name of this style of decoration).
To make the Rosette, sew a gathering stitch along the edge of a ribbon, once you've gotten a desired length to make a circle from pulling the thread; cut and sew ends together. The Pink ones I quickly did last night and didn't take any pictures.
For the Flower Ball, I had hot glued a Styrofoam ball to a $1 candlestick, used pearl head pins to attach the flowers to ball.
Lastly the Bird Cage: this was a bit more of a thought process when I saw the idea. The idea was a soda bottle cap and paper. Wanting a bigger cage I used a pickle jar lid and wire, cut & hot glued to make cage. And yes that is paint for the walls & it worked nicely. The decorative 'wall' of cage is paper that I edge punched and 'glued' to the lid when I painted.
Together makes for a pretty table. Have an awesome Saturday!
