I'm so sorry that I have not posted a tutorial on the cotton candy trees. I keep meaning to take the time to make another one to show you step by step but with Maddy's party this Saturday ~ it looks like that is never going to happen. Please forgive me for just explaining with no step by step photos. However, it is so super duper simple I think you won't need any.Materials:
- Plastic garden pot (I got mine from Big Lots $6)
- Spray paint (I used gold)
- Plaster of Paris (got from Michael's)
- Manzania Branches (Blooms and Branches ~ online store)
- cotton candy (Smart and Final)
Steps:
- Spray paint pots to desired color.
- Mix plaster paris according to directions. Pour into pots.
- Stick manzania branches into plaster paris pots while still wet. I put the pot against a wall in the sun and completely dried in about 20 minutes.
- Stick cotton candy onto Manzania branches until you get a full tree.
I told you easy cheezy!!
So very cute and with your directions... So very easy! Thanks for that!
ReplyDeleteIt really is a cute idea and I don't think we even needed the pictures. Can't wait to see the ones from Maddy's party.
