Flower Cupcake Topper Inspiration

April 30, 2010 by Morgan

My Friday Guest Blog Interviews have slowly conformed to an every-other-week schedule that seems to suit the blog (and the sharing of some of my favorite sites) well. So stay tuned! Next week I have a very neat blog to share – it’s just waiting patiently in the rafters.

If you’d like to check out some great interviews by bloggers like Jenn of Hostess with the Mostess, Sheri of Young House Love, Kim of At Home with Kim Vallee and oh-so-many more, check out the right sidebar button reserved just for these delightful sneak-peeks.

Today’s post is dedicated to one of my favorite entertaining/decorating details: cupcake toppers. As our April showers turn into May flowers, now is the perfect time to incorporate delicate handmade flower cupcake toppers for desserts, cheese trays, as drink stirrers or as substitute place cards peeking out from a rolled napkin.

Here’s a bit of inspiration from Etsy artist Millalove and Glorious Treats. I’m imagining the perfect way to recreate each of these with scrapbooking paper and toothpicks…

Beyond the jump is a deliciously edible candied sugar version of flower cupcake toppers as well as a DIY coloring project with excellent results. Happy Friday!

These sugar toppers are awesome! I can’t wait to try. For full instructions, hop on over to the blog Wisdom of the Moon.

This tutorial couldn’t be easier, It’s the Stuff I Love shows easy step-by-step instructions. Here’s another cute idea from J Caroline involving scrapbooking flowers and brads:

Have a lovely weekend!
