DIY Fabric Cake Topper
You’ll Need:
- Glue
- Water
- Coordinating fabric
- Scissors
- Two kitchen skewers
- Mixing bowl
The process:
- Cut skinny, long strips out of the fabric, differ the heights and width of each piece.
- Tie the fabric pieces to one longer strip, alternating colors and sizes as you go. Cut out a small heart, initial, birthday number or other meaningful shape to give added character to the topper.
- Mix together one part glue and two parts water in the bowl.
- Once the bunting is tied in a pleasing combination, submerge the entire piece into the glue/water mixture- take care to ensure every fabric strip gets wet.
- Pull out and wrap the ends tightly around two kitchen skewers. Place any cut out shapes on top of single strips of fabric to dry (they will bond together when dry).
- Lay out to dry for about a day.
