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

the Murray McMurray Hatchery catalog. We love looking at all the cool and

Typically hatcheries online offer both standard breeds

pounds when full grown. Just like ordering anything online there are pros

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
Weikert Pennsylvania 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 Weikert,
Pennsylvania Baby chicks are extremely
cute and
tough to resist,
however it's best to prepare for their
arrival before you obtain them. Prepare first
by collecting not only the
proper products, yet
additionally the proper
expertise to take care of
them. Raising baby chicks is fairly
straightforward, you simply should give them with the following: A tidy and also warm
environment Plenty of food and also water Interest and
love Habitat Your environment can be a straightforward box, fish tank,
pet cat carrier, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels and also
blankets (with no loosened
strings!) to begin, and also after a few weeks use straw over newspaper.
Note: Avoid making use of just
newspaper or other slipper
surface areas-- or your chicks legs could expand
malformed. You additionally need
something to provide food and also
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
dish from the feed shop, or a pickle container
lid for food and a pet dog bird water dispenser from a family pet store. Additionally, as the chicks get
older you could present a perch
into the environment to get them
educated on perching. Warmth To
keep your chicks heat you should
supply them with a heat resource.
This could be as simple as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style light from an equipment store, or an infrared reptile heat
light bulb also function effectively (my
referral). Chicks require this
heat 24/7 till their downy fluff is
replaced with feathers (which can take up to two months). The recently
hatched out require a temperature
in between 90 and also 100 degrees,
and each week this could
be reduced by
about 5 levels or
so. The warmth resource need to be on merely one side of the cage
to permit chicks a range of
temperature levels. The chicks are your best
thermostat- if they are concealing in the
other edge of your heat
light, you have to
lower the temperature level. If
they are surrounding each other under the
heat (not just snuggling),
you should add some heat.
Housekeeping
Sanitation is essential and it maintains your chicks healthy and
balanced. Make certain to transform
the bedding
commonly and
consistently provide clean
food as well as water Food as well as water.
Chicks expand very quick
which needs plenty of clean
food as well as water. Supply
sufficient at all times and examine
commonly to prevent parched and
hungry chicks. Chick food is various than adult chicken food, as well as it comes
in both medicated and
also non-medicated ranges. Feed chick food for the
initial two months, after that
change to a raiser food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for another 2 months,
then to a somewhat
lower protein feed or a level feed
(if you have levels). Dirt Some chicks prefer to obtain a head start on taking
dust baths, while others won't take
up that task till they are
older. If you have the area in your chick
room, introduce a tray of sand or
dirt for them to shower in.
Interest and love There are a
few advantages to spending time with your chicks. First off, they will certainly probably bond with you and
not escape as adults. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily and
enjoy their behavior, you can
catch health problem or various
other issues earlier. Watch out for wheezing, hopping, or
other unhealthy
signs. Be sure to
additionally take a look at
their poop, as diarrhea could bring about matted feathers and clogged cloaca.
Last but not least, it is necessary to watch out for social problems, such as the
smallest chick getting badgered. Vacant nest syndrome So your
chicks are now fully feathery
as well as its time for them to leave the
security of your home
as well as relocate outside into a
coop. Take a look at our
section on chicken cages to learn more
regarding cages as well as
appropriate coop habitats.
