The groom's sister made each and every one. She carved out the tops and put in the greenery and berries. When I asked her if I could take a few home and share them on my blog she said sure! {Thanks, Kate}
I lost the original berries on the transport home Friday night, so I replaced them with some Pyracantha berries. We have a massive Pyracantha shrub on our street.
What I love about these is they are so lovely yet so doable. I could do this! Cut out the orange top, place in some greenery and berries. I just love how creative and simple these are.
If you are looking for a last minute holiday craft, I highly recommend. Mine are sitting on my kitchen windowsill. They are so festive. They make me happy. I have a feeling I'll be coming back to these year after year.
Great idea!!
ReplyDeleteLove it! I'm so doing this.
ReplyDeleteyou are right - they're so fresh and pretty!
ReplyDeletebut, really - you just carve out a little of the top? the flesh is just exposed and you stick in the leaves and berries?? Just want to make sure I have the concept because i'm pretty sure I'm going to copy you and your kind friend.
Molly sent me over to look at these. So cute! I bet if you put them on the stove while you're cooking, the kitchen would smell amazing!
