D.i.y. New Year's Eve Centerpiece ❄ Centrotavola Di Capodanno Fai Da Te

>> Hi and welcome back we left Christmas behind but the holidays are not over for those of you who are planning to celebrate the new year's eve at home with friends it's time to think about a lovely setup and to help you out today I will show you how to create a centerpiece suitable for the occasion like this one. Here is what you will need: a large plate, a white feathers string, the ones you find in stores during at Christmas time, some black cardstock, a white cardstock with stars in different sizes printed on, hot glue, a big glass jar, some styrofoam, a paint brush, an x-acto knife, some packing stuff, like the one used for Christmas gift baskets, some ribbon, some iron wire, an artificial flower, scissors, Mod Podge, some glitter, some glitter chipboard letters and a pencil, a twig and a white gel pen. First of all let's work on the styrofoam and using the jar as a mask let's trace the outline with a pencil. Using the x-acto knife let's cut a circle of the right dimensions to fit inside the jar, like this. Now let's wrap the packing stuff around the circle sticking it down with hot glue this way. For the next step we need to cut out the stars we printed on the cardstock. Let's place them on a newspaper then let's cover them with Mod Podge like this. Now let's sprinkle them with glitter. Here is the result! Once the stars will be completely dry we can grab the iron wire and hot glue it to the back of the star adding another star on top as you see. Let's cut out the exceeding wire and let's create more stars in different sizes. Now let's bring back the styrofoam base and let's stick in the stars we made like this. Here is the result! Now let's work with the black cardstock and let's place the twig on top to get the right proportion and let's mark the size using a pencil like this. Now let's stick down the chipboard letters on the cardstock to write 2014. Then using a ruler let's trace some guide lines and let's cut out the cardstock, like this. Now let's cut out another piece of cardstock with the same size. Using a white gel pen let's draw a stiched line on the outline to finish up the sign. Let's hot glue the twig on the back of the cardstock and let's glue the second piece of cardstock on top. We now have a 2014 sign which we need to stick in the styrofoam base with the stars. Here is the result. Now let's place the decorated styrofoam base inside the jar and let's tie a bow with the ribbon. Once we tied the bow let's hot glue the artificial flower on top. Let's cut out the exceeding ribbon then let's put together the centerpiece placing the jar on the plate wrapping the feather string around and adding the bow. And here it is our new year's eve centerpiece That's all for today, but come back tomorrow for a new video which will show you how to create some matching placeholders So I'll wait for you tomorrow...ciaoooo!
