It's a Party!!!

Good day!  Today I am excited to share my party themed project to celebrate The Paper Bakery's 2nd anniversary this month!  They are celebrating on their blog all week long!  I love party favors and no party should be without them- so that it was I made using The Paper Bakery's June kit Bayside High!  It will be up on their site soon!  And take note of the embroidery floss bow at the top- I will show you how you too can make one! 
 
as inspiration for the front of the favor box.
 
 
The kit also includes some fabulous bright yellow embroidery floss!  Here is how I made the puffy bow at the top of my favor box!
 
1)  Wrap the embroidery floss around the prongs of a fork about 20 times.
 
 
2)  Take a separate piece of floss, stick it through the middle prongs and tie it in the middle to make a floss bundle.
 
3) Remove the bundle from the fork and cut both ends.
 
4)  Fluff up both ends of the floss bundle and you are ready to adhere it to your project!
 
There is also a GIVEAWAY on The Paper Bakery blog all week!  Be sure to check it out for a chance to win a great prize!   Thanks for stopping in, I appreciate it!  Have a great day!

  1. That is so cool! I've downloaded all these 3D projects but never make them. And the bow is super cute! I never thought of using a fork as a tool in my craft room :)
