My First Teacup

Hey, everyone!  Today I'm sharing a post about a paper teacup I made for a co-worker to "celebrate" us all making it through 2020 and COVID-19 response without losing our minds completely!  The teacups are a ReneaBouquets product, and you can find them here and here!

I used a TON of Renea's products on this and I will do the best I can to provide links to most of them as I go along in this post!  💓💓

Here is the teacup:


Below you can see a closer view of the things I put inside the teacup.  This was the first one I ever made and I was pleasantly surprised with the ease in which it came together! Some of the ReneaBouquets products in the cup are the angel, the beads, and the broach.  Some of the flowers and the pink dragonfly are from the ReneaBouquets store as well!

I started by using tons of cheesecloth to build a base for all my "things" and I think I'll continue to do that in the future just to keep everything placed in the teacup visible.  I realized pretty early on that if I tried to fill the entire teacup, there would be treasures unseen at the bottom of the cup.  However, that's always a fun way to share a secret surprise!  😍


Below is a different angle on the cup, showing the handle, some more cheesecloth (thank God that stuff is cheap! 😂😂😂),  and another butterfly from the RB shop.


And the other "side" of the base (do circles even have sides?) featuring a spoon from the RB store. 


So there you have it!  Lots of stuff from Renea's store (the stuff there is SOOOOO pretty), but you could fill these cute little teacups with just about anything you wanted (I don't think it's recommended to actually drink tea from them though...)

Thanks for looking and have a happy (and very SAFE) 4th of July weekend!

😘😘😘
