While shopping at Target for school supplies, I came upon these decorative tapes and had to bring them home. The price (pack 4/$4.00) was quite reasonable compared to Washi tapes . There are so many ideas and uses for them on the internet. Here are a few websites to get ideas and inspirations: Inspired By Charm, milk and honey, The Sweetest Occasion, Lanalou Style and Pinterest.
I recently used these tapes to package treats and decorate tags.
Summer for us is celebrating lots of birthdays. These toppers are such a nice and simple addition to cakes, cupcakes and other treats. Here are a few ideas to stimulate your creativity.
Pom-poms are always fun to make and add to decorations. Follow the steps below to create mini pom-poms.
Supplies:
crepe paper streamers
twine
white lollipop sticks {2} / kabob sticks
Cut streamer to the length of 12 inches. Fold it in half, again and again until it’s about an inch and a half long. Along the open edges, make small clips with scissors towards the center leaving about a 1/2 inch in the middle uncut. Take a piece of twine and tie it up in the middle. Once secured, take your fingers and scrunch it up lightly and a pom-pom is finished.

The last few steps: Take two long pieces of twine and twist them into one and tie the ends to the two lollipop sticks. Tie the pom-poms to the twine attached to the sticks and clip off the extra twine from the pom-poms. Here’s the cake topper that I created. I hope you will have fun making them.
