DIY Baby Shower
(or Birthday) Centerpieces

Video narrative as follows -

Today Judy will show you how to make our new do it yourself baby shower centerpiece. This one features a baby boy bear, but other baby shower or birthday designs are also available. Notice the detail on the bear…the blue belt and silver buckle!

Each baby cut out design comes in options of plain white for you to decorate yourself, detailed and highlighted, as well as detailed, highlighted and personalized.

Our just add sand kits have everything you need to put together the centerpiece except sand, gravel or pebbles to act as a weight. Items you need to supply are a scissors and low temperature glue gun. Paint is also required if you want to highlight, detail and/or personalize a white cut out yourself.

The just add sand kit comes complete with the following items:
1 - Full sheet of mylar paper (with choice of available colors)
1 - Piece contrasting ribbon
1 - Styrofoam base
1 - Dowel with matching curling ribbon
1 - Baby Cut Out
2 - Pieces Onion Grass (as shown here) or Sprays

      (with choice of available colors)

The first step to assemble the baby shower centerpiece is

to glue the dowel into the Styrofoam® base.

Next, Judy cuts the mylar sheet in half and places on a flat surface. The top sheet is set at a slight angle to the bottom.

The Styrofoam® base with dowel is placed in the center of the mylar sheet. And, the weight material is poured on top.

Judy then gathers the edges of the mylar paper around the dowel and secures them with the curling ribbon.

There is some slack in the mylar paper at this stage, so she'll pull up the edges to tighten the fit and make it more attractive.

Next Judy will curl the ribbon.

The final steps are to glue the baby cut out onto the dowel and add the onion grass. And here is the finished baby shower centerpiece!

Thank you for joining us today. We hope you've enjoyed learning how to make this baby shower centerpiece.
