The Teapot

How cute would this centerpiece be at a wedding, tea party, or little girl’s birthday party! It even makes a great prize for guests as the wooden pallet is actually a sign. You can make it pretty by painting it or burning it or you can leave it blank.

Estimated Total Cost: $20

What You Need To Make It:

Teapot (I like to look at thrift stores for these. They can be very inexpensive. I usually find them for around 3 or 4 dollars)
Fake Flowers: I got these at Joann’s. I really like flowers at Hobby Lobby and Michael’s too. Amazon has some nice choices as well (or real if you want to cut them the day of)
Unfinished Wood Tag
String
Walnut Hollow Scallop Trivet
Lace Runner (There are lots of choices on Amazon.)
Optional: Flower Foam

Wire Cutters

How To Make It:

Lay a lace runner across the middle of the table.
Place the Walnut Hollow Scallop Tivet in the center.
Place the teapot on top of the trivet.
To make the tag, paint the edges of the wooden tag. Then Paint the middle with TEA. You can create your own message as well, or table number. You can also wood burn using a Wood Burning Tool instead of painting.
String the tag around the teapot.
Hold the fake flowers and use wire cutters to cut the stems away from the bunch. Cut them long and then trim as needed to fit your vase. You can use a piece of flower foam in the pot to hold them in place. Arrange the flowers in the pot until satisfied.
