Hello everyone and welcome to Centerpiece Wednesday!
My sweet granddaughter turned four last week and wanted a Beauty and the Beast birthday party. Since her mom just had a new baby we decided to have a family birthday party. We used a glass cloche atop a small vase with a beautiful red rose for the centerpiece. Luimere and Cogsgrove were in attendance too 🙂
I went to Walmart and purchased some red and yellow tissue paper and whipped up some paper flowers. I will have a tutorial here for you in the next couple of days. These are so easy to make. I hung them above my chandelier for big impact.
Lumiere is standing off to the side with his candles almost burnt all the way down 😉
Ella loved all the details! Especially the rose under glass.
Her momma made these yummy chocolate cupcakes and we frosted them with buttercream frosting tinted yellow and we found these red rosé decorations at Walmart in the bakery party section. Perfect don’t you think?
Originally Madeline…Ella’s mom was going to make a tiered cake but when she asked her hubby to take the cakes out of the oven he didn’t check the cakes to see if they were done and they were raw in the middle so …Madeline being very resourceful…cut around the raw part and turned the pieces of cake into a beautiful trifle!
Sweet Ella all dressed up in her new fairy costume wearing a sparkly crown waiting for her cupcake.
This was the centerpiece of my week…what was yours?
I can’t wait to see what you have been up to.

Karins KottageWelcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!

Those tissue flowers are gorgeous! I am drooling over the desserts...they are my downfall...
Thanks for hosting each week.
Utterly charming! Kids don't forget things like this! Love the rose under the dome, and the cupcakes are perfect!
That's what I called resourceful and creative.
Very well done.
Have a great w/end.

P.S.
I will join you in your party next week.
Found your site while visiting from "The Home Girl" blog. Your party was so pretty and your little princess made me smile - so cute! The rose under the glass reminded me of "Beauty and the Beast" - simple but enchanting. Thank you for hosting and for all the lovely inspiration.
