DIY Cake Icing Tip Place Card Holders
I love it when the most mundane items can be transformed into something useful and practical. Cake icing tips are one of those items! They come in all different shapes and sizes and can be transformed to coordinate with your wedding with just a coat of spray paint. Add your place card, and this project takes about 5 seconds to complete, shopping time not included. To add an extra element, gather up colorful glass containers and add some simple flowers. I bought spray roses, stock, hyacinth, and hydrangea all from Trader Joe’s.

Done!

That is such an awesome idea. While reading and before seeing the pictures, I was like, LAME. But seeing it, it looks great!
What a wonderfully simple idea! I also cannot believe that you found such beautiful blooms at Trader Joe’s! Making a mental note of that! :)
So cute! Love your trader joes flower arrangements too!
Cute idea. What I am really curious about though are those glasses. I love them, but can’t seem to find them anywhere. Does anyone know what that type of glass is called?
Very clever. The flowers look great. Are all the vessels from Anthro?
they are all from anthropologie except the small green and gold one… it was a gift from friends that just got back from morroco.
love the simplicity! beautiful!
smart idea!!!
I’m all about the diy, and the easy diy, love the name tags, so cute!
What a happy, cheerful look! Reuse = good!!
What a cute idea – perfect for a birthday party or shower!
I am in love with this idea, and it could be great for a shower or even just a dinner party at home. It has such a vintage feel to it and I like the idea of using items you have at home to transform ordinary into elegant.
simple+genius = simply genius!
We’re doing the small containers for flowers rather than large centerpieces…those are cute.
Um, I LOVE this! So chic and those florals are to die for. I’ve saved this in my DIY folder :)
love the idea! perfect for a dinner party too!

Such a great idea! It’s so easy and totally cute.
What a great idea!! So cute for a themed bridal shower or birthday party.
What a genius idea! And so cheap. Tips aren’t even $2 each.
I love this idea – how cute and original is this!! especially if you are having cupcakes and homemade items on the table, it really carries the theme throughout! XxX
So cute and simple…I love the way they look like little crowns…could also be cute for a kids party!
What a FUN idea!
really cute idea!
I LOVE this idea! Exactly the kind of easy and inexpensive table setting idea I’m always looking for. Will definitely have to write about it if I can figure out how to transfer it to a city apartment (spray paint isn’t very indoor-friendly).
what a clever idea for the name holders – so classy – yet easy!
i want to sit next to elodie
I love this idea…so simple, easy, and clever!
so simple… just like when we were pre school where our teacher places a name card holder just like that… ice one
Great creative thinking! I like the idea of spray painting them as well. I wouldn’t have thought of that.
