The Shower crafts

So I was suppose to post the rest of the pictures from Steph's shower a WHILE back. Well I'm finally getting a round to it!

As I said on my first post, I made candles as favors. Here's one after was set, I think they turned out well.


Katy made these adorable tags to put on the handles to remind the girls where the candle came from.


 We placed the candles beside the cake. Katy and I made the cake. I think it turned out just beautiful... if you can't tell I was suppose to be Belle's Ballroom dress. We made the dress out of marshmellow foundant from a recipe I found on pinterest.


You can't have a Beauty and the Beast shower without the Beast's rose. I bought a set of cheap roses and some foam board from the Dollar Tree and the vase from Walmart. I tied some fishing line to the rose's stem and hot glued the other end of the fishing line to the bottom (well in this case the top) of the vase. I had to get Erica to help me because her hand was smaller. I took a top from one of Erica's empty Coke bottles and painted it gold. I did my best to cut a circle out of the foam and wrapped it in a piece of brown paper. 


I made this cute sign for the front door of the apartment to welcome everyone to the shower. I printed out the letters off of the computer (Yes that is Disney font). I cut the letters out then traced the letters on to the back of yellow glittery scrapbook paper. It took a lot of time but I think it turned out cute, so that's all that matters.

Here's the chandelier that I made hanging up in the dining room area. (Sadly the lighting wasn't very good in the picture)


As I said in my first post, I was going to have all the characters at the shower. Here's a picture of them all together. I found the clock and candle holder on ebay and bought the tea cup when I bought the tea cups for the candles. When I bought the clock I thought it was bigger but I couldn't find another one in time so I used it any way. I added construction paper to the clock to make it look more like Cogsworth. I just painted the cup to make it look as much like Chip as I could. I finished up Mrs. Potts by painting the bottom of the teapot. I didn't do anything to the candle holder. I should have painted it gold/yellow but I ran out of time.


Over all I think the shower turned out well and Steph really enjoyed it. You tell by the smile on her face. :-)
