Yesterday we had Sana’s Graduation Tea Party! Such an amazing day. We have had so many requests regarding the decorations so I thought I would add a little DIY to our page! If you have any questions regarding other decorations or particular things from the tea party don’t hesitate to ask!
We first saw the poms on Pinterest and were completely amazed at how something so simple can transform the space you are decorating. After a little Google research we discovered they originated from Martha Stewart Weddings. In my search for the perfect center pieces I also created flowers for the table out of the poms.
Here is a tutorial for the baby poms on a branch. But if you wish to make large ones for hanging decorations all you need to do is keep the original tissue paper size and do the same steps! Goodluck!
DIY POMS TUTORIAL…
What you will need…
scissors
your desired colour tissue paper (mine was 50cm x75cm, but I then cut it to size)
stapler
What to do…
Lay out 10 sheets of 50cm x 75cm tissue paper. Cut the desired size. For my baby ones I used 15cm x 30cm.
Fold the tissue accordion style, for the baby poms I fold them about 1-2cm thick. For the large hanging poms make it about 4cm thick.
Once folded it should look like this.
Once folded in accordion style place a staple in the center of the strip. This will hold it together while you fan it out.
Take one end of the folded tissue and cut diagonally across the tip.
Then do the same to the opposite side.
It should look like this. Don’t worry too much about being too neat. You can’t tell once they are opened up.
This is what you should have so far.
Now fan out each end of the pom.
This is the very delicate part. Here you want to separate the layers of tissue from each other bringing them towards the middle (staple). Do this carefully as the tissue may rip.
Once you get the hang of it you will have them done in no time.
Mika watching in suspense..
Once complete grab a branch from your yard and super glue the end of the branch into the middle of the pom. Once left to dry and completely stuck you can play around with the poms and “fluff” them do they look pretty.
Here are some pictures from all the difference sized ones I did for Sana’s Tea Party..
Goodluck with your pom making xo s & j xo

Quantity - you must order a certain number of chicks. Typically hatcheries
will require you buy a minimum of 25 chicks at a time. The number is
necessary for the chicks survival during shipping. All 25 chicks are put
in one small box without heat. They are crowded in the box and produce
enough body heat to arrive in good shape. * The wait - If you choose to
buy chicks from a feed store you will have them the same day but if you
choose to go with a hatchery you have to wait until they are ready to ship
and then wait for the chicks to arrive. Ordering baby chicks online in
Window Rock Arizona is easy and has always been a very pleasant
experience of me. It can be a little frustrating waiting for the chicks
but it's so worth the wait. When the post office calls and you hear all
those little "cheeps" or "chirps" in the background you'll know the wait
was worth it! How to Care for your new baby chickens in Window Rock,
Arizona Baby chicks are extremely
charming and also
hard to stand up to,
yet it's finest to plan for their
arrival prior to you get them. Prepare first
by gathering not just the
appropriate materials, yet
additionally the appropriate
understanding to take care of
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
easy, you merely should supply them with the following: A tidy and also warm
habitat A lot of food as well
as water Attention and
love Environment Your environment could be a basic box, aquarium,
feline carrier, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels as well as
blankets (without loosened
strings!) to start, and also after a
couple of weeks make use of straw over paper.
Keep in mind: Avoid making use of just
paper or other slipper
surfaces-- or your chicks legs could grow
malformed. You likewise need
something to provide food and also
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
recipe from the feed store, or a pickle container
cover for food and also an animal bird water dispenser from a pet shop. Likewise, as the chicks age you could present a perch
into the environment to obtain them
educated on perching. Heat To
maintain your chicks heat you have to
supply them with a heat source.
This can be as easy as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design lamp from an equipment shop, or an infrared reptile heat
light bulb additionally work very
well (my
recommendation). Chicks need this
heat 24/7 till their downy fluff is
changed with plumes (which could occupy to two months). The freshly
hatched out require a temperature level
in between 90 and 100 levels,
and every week this could
be decreased by
roughly 5 degrees approximately. The heat source ought
to get on just one side of the cage
to enable chicks a range of
temperatures. The chicks are your best
thermostat- if they are hiding in the
contrary corner of your heat
lamp, you need to
minimize the temperature. If
they are surrounding each various other under the
warmth (not merely curling up),
you should add some warmth.
House cleaning
Sanitation is vital and also it maintains your chicks healthy. Make sure to transform
the bed linen
often as well as
always give clean
food as well as water Food as well as water.
Chicks grow really fast
which calls for lots of clean
food and also water. Give
sufficient at all times as well
as examine
frequently to
stop parched and also
hungry chicks. Chick food is various than adult chicken food, and also it is available in both medicated as well as non-medicated selections. Feed chick food for the
first 2 months, then
switch over to a raiser food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for an additional 2 months,
and after that to a somewhat
lower protein feed or a level feed
(if you have layers). Soil Some chicks prefer to get a head start on taking
filth bathrooms, while others won't occupy that task until they are
older. If you have the space in your chick
room, introduce a tray of sand or
dust for them to wash in.
Attention and also love There are a
few advantages to spending time with your chicks. First of all, they will certainly probably bond with you and
not flee as grownups. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily and
see their actions, you could
catch ailment or other problems earlier. Keep an
eye out for hissing, limping, or
various other harmful
indications. Make certain to
likewise look at
their poop, as diarrhea can bring about matted plumes and blocked cloaca.
Lastly, it is very
important to look out
for social issues, such as the
tiniest chick getting picked
on. Empty nest disorder So your
chicks are now completely feathered
and also its time for them to leave the
safety and security of your residence
and relocate outside into a
coop. Check out our
part on chicken cages to get more information
about cages as well as
correct coop environments.
