I’m going out on a limb here… but I love these branches so much that I’m predicting cherry blossom-themed parties and weddings to be one of the ‘it’ decoration ideas for Spring 2010. What do you think? Don’t a few branches in bloom make a beautiful inspiration piece?
I know with these images I’m won over {sigh}:
Made from curly willow and origami paper, Curbly shares a beautiful way to create your own DIY branch centerpieces. Perfect for a shower, wedding, tea party or dinner with friends.
And to complete the perfect party, how does a cool and refreshing blossom iced tea, rhubarb martini or rose champagne sound? Yes please!
The perfect drinks for a cherry blossom celebration:
The adorable pink sugar cube recipe (in blossom shapes) can be found here. More lovely images from Martha:
Hello Naomi designed beautiful cherry blossom cupcakes that match this theme perfectly (bottom left image above).
I’m so very inspired by branches – they remain a staple with most of my decorating and cherry blossoms have just moved to the top of my list. I wish they were a bit easier to get a hold of though… if anyone has any good resources, do share!
