DIY Mini Rosette Cupcake Stands

We have been having so much fun filling orders for our rosette lollipops! But, there are always so many left over paper scraps and we just knew there had to be something that we could create out of them! So...we came up with mini rosette cupcake stands!! They are so easy to make, festive and perfect to display your mini cupcakes, bon bons or other mini treats!

Materials:

2 strips of 1" decorative card stock for rosette (we used 12" paper so the strip is 1" in width and 12" in length)

1" width 3" length strip of decorative card stock for stand

glue gun

scissors

1" circle paper punch

Take your 2 strips of 1" card stock and accordion style fold them. Then glue the end of one of the strips to the end of the other strip, then glue the other ends together to form a circle. Fold the circle inward and bring center together to form a rosette, turn the rosette over (to show the bottom of the paper) and glue a punched out circle of paper (use your paper punch) to secure the rosette in place. Turn the rosette over to show the decorative paper and glue another circle on top. Take the paper for your stand and just wrap it around and hot it glue it to secure it closed. Then just put some hot glue around the top of the stand and glue/secure it to your rosette! (Make sure your seam from your stand is in the back).

Rosette Lollipop Topiaries

This is a really busy week for us! We are preparing for my twin daughter's third birthday party. Here is a sneak peek of what we are working on! We love paper rosettes; they are so whimsical and think they go perfectly with a "Paris" themed party! But we wanted to take our love for paper rosettes to another level and combine them with our love for sweets! So we came up with our rosette lollipop topiaries!

If you love these as much as we do, we will be doing a DIY tutorial on how we made these...so stay tuned!
