House Under Construction

I love getting original and fun requests and this one was one of them! I made this cake last week for my brother-in-law's birthday. My sister and her husband requested a cake of a house being framed and a little figure working on the house. This one was so fitting as this is his profession. It was a vanilla cake with banana buttercream filling. Sorry, again, for the poor pictures, I ran out of time to take some better ones.

Tissue paper pom poms have been popping everywhere in party and room decor and are a great way to add color to a room. Why buy these lovely pom poms premade when you can easily make these in your own home and are more economical!

Supplies Needed

24-gauge white cloth-covered floral wire.

8 sheets of tissue paper (this will make one tissue paper pom pom)

ruler

scissors

pencil

ribbon or clear thread for hanging pom pom


Directions

1. Stack eight sheets of tissue. Make 1 1/2-inchwide accordion folds, creasing with each fold.

2. Fold an 18-inch piece of floral wire in half, and slip over center of folded tissue; twist. With scissors, trim ends of tissue into rounded or pointy shapes.

3. Separate layers, pulling away from center one at a time.

4. Tie a length of ribbon or clear thread to floral wire for hanging.
