Creations, Flowering Tea Cup Centerpiece
Welcome to the Monthly Creative Craft Hop
hosted by Andrea of Design Morsels
If you are hopping in order and coming from My Family Thyme,
I know you enjoyed her custom pillow cover!
I have been wanting to make a “pouring” centerpiece for quite a while,
and when I was gifted this adorable tea towel
I was inspired to make an Alice in Wonderland type centerpiece
I went to Hobby Lobby to pick up supplies and lucky me,
table top was 40% off 😊
I found an adorable Pour Me pitcher,
a dotted Hello Gorgeous cup, a black and white striped plate,
faux flowers, a pedestal stand, a dowel,
and a bright patterned melamine plate {which I ended up not using}
I had a blue candle stand in my craft stash,
It was the perfect color,
and it was the perfect height, when set on top of the pedestal stand,
to use with the dowel I had
I played around with the positioning
so the dowel was just the right length
to be glued to the bottom of the cup
and just under the lip of the pitcher
The dotted cup and white pedestal were glued to the plate,
then the candle stand was glued to the pedestal
Next, I glued the pitcher on top, tilting it on the edge of the candle stand
so it looked like it was pouring
The dowel then was glued in place
The flowers were deconstructed into blooms and large leaves,
and then the leaves were glued on the dowel to cover the raw wood
I put a few blooms into the dotted cup
Next more blooms were glued onto the leaves going up the dowel
More blooms in the pitcher
Then more blooms on the plate and a mini flower pot place card holder
I set the plate of pouring floral tea onto a large ceramic platter
A Drink Me sign was made with PicMonkey
A clock face and lady vases added a touch of Alice in Wonderland
Tea bags and tea tags [gifted from a friend}

NOTE: I used hot glue for this project so that I can take it apart if I want to repurpose any of the elements later. If you want to make one that is more durable, and weatherproof, use a stronger bonding glue like E6000

I’ve seen some of these out there and I love how unique and cute yours turned out. It looks so colorful and inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Chas!
I’ve wanted to make one of these for quite awhile, too!! I’ve pinned yours. I even bought a fork, teacup, and saucer at a thrift store. But then I decided I liked the teacup and saucer….. I guess I need to buy some more… All pinned.
Thanks Liberty, have fun making one!
Jenna, this is too, too cute! That tea towel is so wonderful, I can understand why it inspired you! You did such a great job creating this adorable centerpiece! This was the perfect complement to your sweet tea party tablescape! I love that you showed us the ‘magic’ behind the creation, with step by step instructions!
Thanks so much Chloe, this was a lot of fun, especially the shopping part, my first time in Hob Lob in 13 months! Planning a tea party for my daughter and granddaughter on Mother’s Day weekend 🙂
Jenna, my comment disappeared! I will try again…..
Thanks for sharing this clever idea. Great tutorial! I enjoy setting an Alice table every now and then, so now I can include this cute centerpiece idea. Thank you!
The tea towel is adorable. I also have one and often thought about framing it.
uh oh! Sorry the comment disappeared…but thank you Sarah, this was such fun! I can’t wait to see what you come up with!
Jenna, I love the pouring centerpiece! This is the very cutest. I want to make one! 😀
Thanks RJ, you should make one, lots of fun!!
Jenna, this is so adorable! I love how you incorporated the Alice in Wonderland theme into your centerpiece. The MC towel was a great inspiration piece. Thanks for sharing the instructions for how to make the pouring effect. I’ll definitely have to try this sometime! I can relate to how fun it is to go out shopping again. I can’t wait to go shopping for bee related items for Debbee’s upcoming hop! It ‘s always a pleasure to craft with you!
Thanks so much Rebecca, it is a really fun project and I’m enjoying it as a Spring centerpiece on the foyer table. The bee hop sounds like fun, I look forward to seeing all the bee things you find!
I have been so wanting to make something like this, Jenna, and I thank you for the inspiration! Yours turned out so cute. I see your Susan Paley piece in there, which adds to the whimsy.
This was a lot of fun Kitty, it would be a great project to do with your grand girls. You inspired me to include my lady vases 🙂
