04 Oct How to make "TREE" Centerpieces!

This is a great way to make a “WOW” impact at a low cost.
I have written a Women’s Bible Study called PLANTED: Sit, Stand, and Walk with Jesus and needed centerpieces for all the tables in our fellowship hall. I mean, women NEED centerpieces, right? I saw this idea on Pinterest and took the art a bit further to match the trees I had built for my background (that “how-to” will be another post!).
Follow these instructions to make these AWESOME “tree” centerpieces.

Materials Needed:

• Various Size Wine Glasses (Dollar Tree)
  
• Large White Poster Paper (Dollar Tree)
• Pencil, Scissors, Glue Gun, and Glue Sticks (Dollar Tree)
• Fabric
• Spray Mount : 3M Spray Adhesive works the best!
• Trim and additional SHIZAM!

STEP ONE: (picture underneath instruction)

• Go to the Dollar Tree and buy different size wine glasses. This will be the base for your “tree.” While you are there, pick up some large poster paper, glue sticks, and a glue gun (if you need them).

STEP TWO:

• Take a pencil and using your wine glass like a protractor, trace a semi-circle onto your poster paper.

STEP THREE:

• Cut out your template. Using 3M Spray Mount, glue your fabric onto the poster board and cut out again.

 STEP FOUR:

• Wrap the “fabric-paper” into a cone that will fit your wine glass. Using a glue gun, glue the seams together. Cut off bottom if you need to “square up” your cone.

STEP FIVE: 

• Add trim and embellish your TREE!

 
Don’t they look great? The patterns are endless ~ and you could use paper instead of fabric. I can’t wait to do a Lilly one! Have fun!
