To continue with my latest posting trend of all things birthday party, I wanted to share a super simple centerpiece idea.
{I’ve also got a HUGE giveaway at the end of this post, so make sure to check that out! An Amazon gift card, Ribbon Retreat, and Cut It Out Frames are up for grabs!}
You can make one or make a bunch, depending on your decor needs and all you need are some glass jars, M&M’s, birthday number candles, and curling ribbon.
Wash and dry your glass jars before starting. That way, when the party is over, you can eat the M&M’s {you’re welcome for the reminder}.
Easy peasy to assemble…
1. Place the number candle in the jar, flush with one side.
2. Fill the jar to the top with M&M’s. Adjust the candle as needed if a few stray M&M’s make their way in front of the number.
3. Close the lid {if your jar has one} and tie curling ribbon to the top.
4. Curl the ribbon with scissors, and voila! Instant birthday party centerpieces!
I’ve got plenty of spare “2” candles if anyone needs one! 🙂
Happy party planning!
