You have probably figured out that this week's "Try It Tuesday" was, in fact, delayed until today. I considered skipping it and saving it for next week, but I simply couldn't wait to share this clever DIY idea with you.

All you need to create these charming garlands--spotted here and here--are cupcake liners, thread, and a needle.

    How adorable. This would be a fun one for the kids to do on their own too. I think you have inspired us into a whole mornings activity beginning with a bike ride downtown to get the supplies. Thank you!

    You know what's funny? I wish I had calculated precisely how much time I just spent clicking through beautiful cupcake liners on those sites. Hysterical. So simple, but so desirable. Strange!

    Cupcake liners and balloons. Same appeal.

    Oh Suzanne - this cupcake liners are to die for! I love making cupcakes, recently made a hundred for a friends engagement party (ok, so maybe after that I only liked not loved making cupcakes....) - so difficult where I live to get fantastic liners, I've got my fingers crossed when I check these sites they ship to Oz! x
