Only one day to go

...until the weekend!  And boy am I ever ready. Here's the project sitting on my kitchen table at the moment.  I got the inspiration from the cone vases at anthropologie.  Next, I need to add the white polkadots and stain some wood pieces to create the background to hang the cones on. 


I won't be able to finish them until after the baby shower is over on Saturday.

I did fnish up the cupcake picks.
Gather:
wooden cupcake picks
lace
ribbon
solid baker's twine
seam binding
pearl strand/trim
cardstock tag
heart punched cardstock shape
rhinestone
adhesive

Go:
Tie seam binding around the top portion of the pick. 
Layer the remaining lace, trim and bead pieces (starting with the widest one at the bottom of the stack) and knot the seam binding. 

Trim all the tails to desired length.Punch hole through tag and secure to pick, just above ribbon bundle, using solid color baker's twine.  

Adhere two hearts, one on the front and one on the back (lined up back to back).  This helps finish the backside of the cupcake pick, plus it makes the heart punched shape sturdier.
Assembly style...once again the way to go!
Honestly, you can whip up a few dozen of these little gems in no time.  And they can be switched up for ANY special occasion!
