we opted for music in the park with friends & it was hot – not too hot to have a styled picnic table though.
i ran to michael’s for cute plates and platters and made the super easy utensil, napkin, straw holders.
easy steps
directions:
you’ll need: a ball jar, 3 ribbons/material, hot glue gun
1. grab a base ribbon or material, it should be the widest – i used burlap, which i love to style
2. wrap it around the jar and then hit it with the glue gun to secure the wrap – now build from that base
3. next grab the thinner piece of material/ribbon – wrap it around & hit it with the glue gun to secure
4. last step – repeat the process again with your thinnest piece of ribbon/material
obviously, i used blue and white for the 4th, but i recently did this for a friend’s pool party; just vary the colors and material/ribbon.
