DIY Flower Wrapped Favors

The LemonDrop Tree blog is all about bright, all about colorful, all about pretty and all about creativity. So when I saw this on the Martha Stewart site I knew I just had to share share share! These simple favors/party decorations/center pieces are easy to make and require just a few things. You will need acetate cylinders, tissue paper, and ribbon. Don't forget the candy by the way to fill the insides of the tube! To make just follow these simple easy instructions found here. These would look great with many of them grouped off together in may colors. I can imagine them on a tiered cake stand as a center piece. These would also look nice with tissue paper pom pom decorations that I blogged about awhile ago here. Pair them together for a festive look.

DIY Tissue Paper Pom Poms

So many brides or party hostesses look for inexpensive ways to brighten up the decor for that special day. Paper lanterns now have some competition with these beautiful yet delicate tissue paper pom poms. Martha Stewart makes a diy kit that you can find at your local Michaels craft store if you have one near by but why bother when you just need a few simple items to make these adorable floating eye candies. All you really need to purchase if you already don't have on hand is tissue paper (duh!), floral wire, monofilament, and some scissors. Follow the step by step instructions found here and get ready to ooh and aah everyone at your next soiree!
