A little something for Saturday.
While I was browsing the web a couple of weeks ago, I scanned over an image of a floral cake topper that was very pretty and seemed fairly easy to make, so I bookmarked the page and vowed to visit it again come Mother’s Day. Turns out, it was as simple as it looked to recreate and I was really pleased with the result. Now, it just means I need to whip up a cake.
{The original concept and instructions can be found on the blog, Oh Happy Day. And the site has so many other fun projects to swoon over.}
The floral wire that I came across in the shade of green I wanted only came packaged individually, standing at one and a half feet long each. I was nervous that it would interfere with the flow of the project, but I found that these separate strands worked well and might have helped to write out the cursive letters since they were broken up a bit. I started by bending the floral wire to spell out ‘Mom’ creating each letter separately and combining the letters by twisting them together in a few places, keeping the wire close. (The first ‘M’ measured about 4 inches tall).
{These flowers are actually stickers for adorning the pages of scrapbooks}
Then, I cut out a bunch of tiny leaves in several shades of green and glued them in clusters at various points. I glued the miniature flowers directly on top of the leaves wherever I wanted to see a pop of color. Next, I colored the top 2 inches of each skewer with a dark green Sharpie, so that they would blend smoothly into the rest of the topper.
Glue the skewers onto the first and last letter ‘M’ and clamp with a binder clip to secure. Once completely dry, insert into your dessert and enjoy!
{The construction of this topper is slightly different than the original version I leaned on, but I am happy with how mine turned out.}
The author used decorative flowers with wire already attached from Paper Mart, but since I was more pressed for time and didn’t think they would ship quick enough, I went to my local craft store and searched the scrapbook section for similar ones. Although I didn’t come across any with wire, they were still able to adhere to the letters easily with some Krazy glue.
Things You Will Need:
1. Floral wire (8 feet).
2. Cardstock in a few different shades of green.
3. Paper flowers.
4. Green marker or Sharpie.
5. Wooden skewers (2 of them).
6. Binder clips.
7. Krazy glue.
8. Scissors.
{Additional Tip}
1. This cake topper is easily adaptable to any name or word, so it would be a great addition to a homemade pie over the holidays or sitting on top of a pretty cake at a baby or bridal shower.
Enjoy!
