First Birthday Decor

When my niece turned one back in June, I decided to create the High Chair tutu (click here). When I was done I wanted to create something more so I created a cake topper and the letter C to put in front of the tutu to complete the look.

For the Cake topper:

Supplies:

  • Gold Paint + Paint Brush
  • Glitter poster board (I bought this from Joann)
  • Wooden Dowels
  • Hot Glue Gun + Glue Sticks (I used gold glue sticks)
  • Cricut

Steps:

  1. Paint the dowel gold, stopping where the dowel will be inserted in the cake.
  2. Put your design into the Cricut Design Space and cut it.
  3. Glue the design to the dowel and enjoy!

For the C

Supplies:

  • Card Stock
  • Gold Paint + Paint brush
  • Modge Podge
  • Gold Glitter
  • Matte Board
  • Ribbon
  • Cricut

Steps:

  1. Create the C template using a Cricut or print out a C and cut it out.
  2. Trace the template on the matte board ( I used this because it’s thicker and I had some extra laying around).
  3. Paint the C with gold paint and let it dry.
  4. Coat the C in Modge Podge and cover in glitter. I did both sides of the C to make sure it looked extra sparkly.
  5. Glue ribbon onto the back of the C and let dry.
  6. Hang in front of the tutu and enjoy the first birthday decor!
