DIY Cupcake Tower

Our adventures in cupcake tower making began with one very eager

"almost 10 year old"

I sketched a few drawings on freezer paper.

Love that stuff!

I started out with three circles

10"  14"  18"

Madison traced.

(check out that wild summer hair)!

I then cut some pedestal's and painted them in a white gloss.

I didn't worry too much about the edges because we will cover them up.

You can glue your ribbon with a hot glue gun but we learned  very fast fabric glue worked best.

(the heat of the glue gun tends to warp the ribbon)

I think double stick tape would have worked best....

My mind started going in every direction.

1. Thanksgiving ribbon

2.Christmas ribbon     

          3 Cute Easter pastel ribbons

I think this cupcake tower will  become a big part of our family traditions from now on :)

Then...

I found a hat box from Hobby Lobby that matched perfect!

Happy dance here..

This is what we have so far....

You can put so many twist to this idea.

I can't wait for special occasions now just so I can bring this baby out :)

Madsion is really starting to get excited about her party.

I am too!

This week will be full of planning..

hope you join us!
