After I had made my Mums Chirstmas Bauble Wreath (you can see it here) I had some left over baubles, so I decided to make a table centre for her for Christmas Day.
To create the table centre I used a pillar candle base that I bought in the local supermarket. I then glue the tops of the baubles to the rim. Make sure that you glue them on the edge so the candle can easily be removed.
I then glued on some smaller bauble on top of these but left a gap between them so I could add some cinnamon sticks. I glued 3 cinnamon sticks together and tied a silver trim round them.
The bunches of cinnamon sticks were then glued to the bottom baubles in the spaces I created earlier.
Heres hoping my Mum is pleased with the result. I noticed the current challenge over at Really Reasonable Ribbon is 'Gold & Silver' so I have entered this into the challenge.
