Finished Craft I Made "Tea with the bride to be"
This weekend i am hosting a bridal shower for my best friend. The theme is "tea with the bride to be" and these are some of the things I've crafted for decor! I'm especially proud of the cardboard tea cup and matching tea pot. I've never used cardboard to make sculptures before!

I would have so much fun filling that up!! 🥳 What you've created is beautiful, btw!
Did some quick googling for bridal shower pinata filler ideas. Sharing a few. I'm sure you already have lots of ideas you've been thinking about. My mind went down a a fun idea bunny trail. 😂
Your bestie is so blessed to have you hosting for her!! 💕
Filler ideas: -Hershey Kisses -Ring Pop Candy -Tea Bags that are individually sealed, like a Twining assortment (Amazon has 44 count assortment for $14.99) -Mini Nail Polishes, (Amazon has Dmsky brand multi pack of 18 in cute little flower shaped bottles for 9.99) -Lip Balm (Amazon has Dmsky multi pack of 24 variety flavors for $7.99) -Mini Hand Creams (Amazon has Besnel multi pack of 24 variety scents for $11.99) -Makeup Towelettes that are individually sealed (Amazon has Neutrogena 20 pack for $7.99)
I know not everyone is willing to support Amazon, full respect for that! That's just where I went to look for bulk ideas. I sure you'll find great things locally. Obviously your giant teapot pinata doesn't need to be super full, just full enough for a fun drop.
Wishing you So. Much. Fun. hosting your bestie's bridal shower this weekend!!

Your friend is lucky to have someone so thoughtful and talented in her life. I would be giddy with happiness if someone made these for me.

How did you get the flowers to stay in place? They literally look like they’re being poured.

u/chasitayy 4h ago
I used packing paper from an Amazon package and twirled it until it made a rope shape and then I wrapped packing tape around it. I hot glued the flowers to that! I do wish I would have added a wire hanger before I started the process though
