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
Mulino Oregon 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 Mulino,
Oregon Baby chicks are quite
cute and also
tough to withstand,
yet it's finest to plan for their
arrival before you get them. Prepare first
by gathering not just the
proper materials, yet
additionally the appropriate
knowledge to care for
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
straightforward, you merely should supply them with the following: A
clean and warm and comfortable
environment Plenty of food and water Interest and
love Environment Your habitat could be an easy box, fish tank,
cat service provider, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels as well as
blankets (without loosened
strings!) to begin, and also after a
couple of weeks utilize straw over newspaper.
Keep in mind: Avoid using just
paper or other slipper
surfaces-- or your chicks legs could expand
malformed. You additionally require
something to provide food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder and water
dish from the feed shop, or a pickle jar
lid for food and also a pet dog bird water dispenser from a pet shop. Additionally, as the chicks grow older you could introduce a perch
right into the habitat to obtain them
educated on perching. Warmth To
maintain your chicks heat you need to
provide them with a heat resource.
This can be as straightforward as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style light from a
hardware store, or an infrared reptile warmth
bulb likewise function very
well (my
suggestion). Chicks require this
heat 24/7 up until their downy fluff is
replaced with feathers (which could use
up to 2 months). The recently
hatched need a temperature
between 90 as well as 100 degrees,
as well as each week this could
be lowered by
about 5 levels approximately. The warmth resource need to get on simply one side of the cage
to allow chicks a range of
temperatures. The chicks are your finest
thermostat- if they are concealing in the
opposite corner of your warmth
lamp, you need to
decrease the temperature level. If
they are smothering each other under the
warmth (not merely snuggling),
you have to add some heat.
Housekeeping
Tidiness is vital as
well as it maintains your chicks healthy and
balanced. Be sure to transform
the bedding
typically and
consistently provide clean
food and also water Food and also water.
Chicks grow extremely fast
which requires lots of clean
food and also water. Supply
sufficient in any way times and examine
typically to avoid parched and
starving chicks. Chick food is different compared
to adult chicken food, as well as it comes
in both medicated as well as non-medicated varieties. Feed chick food for the
very first two months, after that
change to a raiser food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for another 2 months,
and after that to a slightly
lower protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have layers). Soil Some chicks want
to obtain a running start on taking
filth bathrooms, while others won't use up that activity up until they are
older. If you have the area in your chick
enclosure, introduce a tray of sand or
dust for them to shower in.
Focus and also love There are a
few benefits to spending quality time with your chicks. Firstly, they will probably bond with you as well as
not escape as grownups. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily and
view their habits, you can
capture ailment or other problems earlier. Watch out for hissing, limping, or
various other harmful
indicators. Make sure to
likewise check out
their poop, as diarrhea can result in matted plumes and also clogged cloaca.
Last but not least, it is essential to watch out for social issues, such as the
littlest chick getting picked
on. Vacant nest syndrome So your
chicks are currently completely feathery
as well as its time for them to leave the
safety and security of your house
as well as relocate outside right into a
coop. Have a look at our
part on chicken coops to get more information
regarding cages as well as
correct cage habitats.
