I saw those two DIY projects created by Jessica from Modern Moments. They are easy and would definitely make a statement. The best part is that these DIY projects can be adapted to fit many occasions.

First, take this idea from a first birthday’s party for a little boy. The mother sewed a cookie in a glassine bag for serving. It makes an awesome presentation and your guests can easily take home a few cookies at the end of the party.

For the same party, this mom made these single cupcake stands for roughly $1 each. It’s an idea I bookmarked for my next tea party.

    Thanks SO much – this tutorial is a lifesaver. I’ve been hired to do a large wedding cake, but they want the cake topper raised above the cake (like another small tier) and I haven’t been able to find anything small enough to use! This will be perfect!
