Easy DIY Cake Topper

Hi there,

It has been a long weekend! Not feeling well and the kids have been sick and school starts back Wednesday! Praying that we are all well by then!

I recently added a cake toppers to my shop. I love them and I wanted to show you just how easy they are to assemble!

Materials you will need:

Printer
Heavy White Card stock
Scissors
Ribbon (if you desire)
Glue
Popsicle sticks or candy sticks.

Tip: You can have your items printed at a local print shop.  I love to use staples, it is .98 cents a sheet! That's it!

Your cake topper should print out something like this. Depending on your age, the age will be different. :) Can also change the colors around!

After you have your sheet infront of you, the next step is to cut around the black like. Make sure you cut on the outside of the black line not the inside.

Next, after you are all finished cutting out your cake topper , you will want to glue it to the front of a popsicle stick or candy stick. I like to use a hotglue gun, but you can use whatever you like.

When your all done it should look something like this! You can add ribbon if you like!

Pretty easy huh? I just love them!

Cheap, Neat Candle Holder!

So, lately I have been taking a liking to Pinterest! If you have never heard of this site, you NEED to swing by and check it out! Beware! You will not want to leave the site, and you will be dreaming about it all night!

I will be posting a few of the ideas I found on Pinterest and my results!

I bought two wonderful candles while I was in Pa doing some shopping with friends, and I have been trying really hard to find a great way to display them. 

I was surfing around on Pinterest and I found this wonderful idea! Candle holders out of wine glasses? Really!?

So while I was out doing some Thrift shopping I ran across some beautiful Antique/Vintage Wine cups. I have dated to be about 25-30 years old.  I paid $2 a piece for them! I personally think it turned out beautiful and I just love them!

Here is my finished project! VERY simple!
