Spring Table Decor
Happy Easter Weekend! I thought you might be trying to add the finishing touches to your holiday tablescape, and wanted to share a quick and easy party favor. You know I love flowers, so I decided to embellish the Lifestyle Crafts Pinwheel into a pretty spring flower. I cut the base from Kanban Crafts papers and inked the edges of the "petals" with Dusty Concord Distress Ink. I also brushed some Stickles on each leaf to add a little sparkle. The center of the flower is a Prima net flower with a Webster's Pages Sparkler in the center. I used a skewer from my kitchen drawer (colored with Distress Stain) for the stem. A little net and ribbon, and you have a pretty trinket for each plate. I hope you have a very blessed Easter!
