TLC154 Sweet Centerpieces
Hello all!! I'm your guest hostess this week and I am excited to bring you this week's TLC!
We've all hosted a party or a shower {or two or ten!!} and being that we are all of creative nature we put our all into invitations, favors, etc. This week let's focus on the centerpieces for these parties. You may remember making these little 'fortune tellers' as a kid. Who knew if you flipped them over they could make some real cute candy dishes!?! There are endless possibilities for baby showers, kid's parties and just general cuteness to have around the house!
**Please put TLC154 in the keyword section when you upload***
MY SAMPLE
MY SAMPLE DETAIL
DIRECTIONS
Martha shows these as sundae treat dishes that are lined. You do not need parchment/liner paper and you can start with any size square. I used 8.5"x8.5".

This will be an interesting challenge. I can't wait to see what is created. I don't have any good ideas yet. Maybe I will dream of something.

OMGosg, I just made one of these in a smaller version with copy paper just as a template and showed it to dh as I relived my childhood. Now that I have stopped laughing I can tell you this brings back soooo many childhood memories. Thanks so much for this challenge. BTW, dh thinks I have lost my mind playing with paper again. He is leaving for work laughing at me telling me to get ready for work and quite playing. SPOILED SPORT!! LOL

Well, heres my *first* one! I'm not 100% in love with it, I think it's too big and gangly, kinda looks like an alien thing, lmbo! I made it with a 12x12, next time I'll try the 8.5! Anyways, it was still fun and I'll try again tomorrow! Thanks again Jen!

Great challenge since I recently saw this project sheet at Michaels AND I have enjoyed teaching these old standbys to my own DD...last year we were all over these "cootie catchers" and this year it's cat's cradle.

Jen, you rock! I looked at this challenge and said, no way! These were "cootie catchers" back in the day! What fun to make them into little candy dishes. I think I'll be using this idea for a gathering, soon!
