Yet, I did want to show you a couples of ways to decorate cake plates. I am sure you have seen some of these before, but at the end I'm giving you a little sneak peek at my Winter Warmth photoshoot that I am working on! Since it was so late when I got started, you will notice double sided tape in the pictures! I did not want to use a glue gun or Elmer's glue for this project as I was quickly replacing the decor. However, a glue gun, Elmer's glue or even double sided tape works great (as long as you trim the tape so you don't see like in my pictures!) So with all of that, let's get started shall we? Up first some vintage lace...
Simple and pretty as above, or with a pop of color below...
Pom-pom's always look cute hanging from a cake plate...
Add a touch of bling with some crystals hanging from ribbon...
Or get a little sexy and glam with some thick black lace...
One of the simplest ways to add a color is with some ribbon...
And for the vintage lovers out there you can decorate with some vintage book pages...
Who doesn't love a little sparkle? It can be added quickly and easily with some glittered letters...One of my favorite ways is to add some bunting flags...
And to dress it up a bit, just add a small rosette...
Finally, a little sneak peek from my Winter Warmth photoshoot I am working on - wool yarn...
Alternating colors wrapped around the base of the cake plate and tied in back, or you could turn it around and use the ties in front...
Looks nice and cozy doesn't it? So there you have it...just a couple ways to decorate cake plates. Trust me, there are soooo many more ways to decorate with...such as twine, rope, rick rack, material, words, flowers, vines, etc... Just remember - if using doubled sided tape, just make sure it doesn't show like mine above. Again, my apologies for that!
I just have to ask...do you have a fave? Or other ideas?
Hope you enjoyed this Tuesday Thought. If you would like me to do a post around one of your thoughts...just let me know, and I will see what I can come up with!
