How to Make Your Own Decorations for a Sweet 15 Party

    Make Fancy Streamers

    • 1). Cut the tulle into strips long enough to stretch across the wall of the reception hall. Also cut a strip long enough to stretch across the buffet table.

    • 2). Lay the tulle on a flat surface and glue several artificial flowers, butterflies or other objects at random along its length. Let the glue dry for about 15 minutes.

    • 3). Wrap a piece of satin ribbon around the tulle at 3- or 6-foot intervals. Attach a removable Velcro adhesive strip to the the backside of the ribbons and to the parts of the wall where you will hang the streamers. Attach the Velcro strips to the front of the tablecloth after draping it over the buffet table.

    Centerpieces

    • 1). Cut the craft foam so that you can easily fit it into the mouth of the vase.

    • 2). Cut a pieces of ribbon long enough to wrap around the mouth of the vases. Hot glue each ribbon to the top of the vases and let dry for 15 minutes.

    • 3). Cut the craft wire into strips that are 3 inches taller than the vase. Thread the pearls and butterflies onto the craft wire

    • 4). Arrange the flowers, pearls and butterflies into a pretty bouquet. Stab the ends of the flower stems and the wires into the craft foam.

    • 5). Carefully slide the foam into the bottom of the vase, rearranging the bouquet if necessary. Place vases on tables and arrange a few votive candles around them.
