A decorated cone


A decorated cone

Hey there!  Just wanted to share my decorated cone as inspired by  my guest Dora Dekker's challenge! :) I used paper for my base but wrapped the cone with baby blue felt, tulle and pearls. Some lace, paper flowers and embellishments from the Gauche Alchemy Blue Streak Mixed Media Color Kit. Love the huge furry pom pom! It adds a little drama right?;) I stuffed my cone with wrapping tissue. The pin at the base is from Heidi Grace.


I had so much fun making this cone...and the possibilities are endless...fill it with potpourri and hang it in your bedroom ...:) Hope to see your decorated cones too!  Link up HERE! :)

Meanwhile, I'm hosting a little holiday project challenge over at the Gauche Alchemy blog. Link up your holiday projects for your chance to win an awesome Acme Kit (currently available only through subscription)! :)
