Party Recap
I revolved the party around a tea theme since we are going to a tea house for my daughter's friend party the next day. But, with all homemade food for 24 people, the food does not resemble typical tea party food.

Marshmallow pops, tea pot cake, strawberry cream cheese cupcakes, rock candy, chocolate covered mini oreos

My kids pick their own menus and everything is handmade, so this year my daughter selected: chicken nuggets, tacos, mashed potatoes and gravy, carrots, macaroni and cheese, salad

The one I saw and tried to make was actually with tissue paper, but my cutter wouldn't cut through the tissue paper well. So for this one, I too scrapbook paper and used a circle puncher and cut out all the circles. I started at the bottom of a large foam ball and folding down a little of the top of each circle and glued it to the ball. I just overlapped each circle and worked my way to the top. I used a hot glue gun for this and then used the same glue to adhere the ribbon to the top.

The other two pomanders are used with foam balls as well. For the pink one, I popped off the ends of fake gerber daisy flowers and used the glue gun to adhere them into the ball. For the purple one, I used floral wire and made really small tissue paper flowers and then poked each flower into the foam ball.
