How to Make a DIY Teddy Bear Centerpiece

Step 1: Put the Base Together

Get ready by sticking the balloon column stand onto a circular silver plastic charger plate. Make sure the glue is really strong because this will be the bottom for your decorations later on. Then, put the balloon pole on after making sure the base is firmly attached. Use more glue if needed.

Step 2: Put the Foam Brick in Place

After you've put together the base and the glue is no longer wet, take a foam brick used for arranging flowers and shape it the way you want. Push it onto the pole so it rests on the base. Trim the foam brick to be big enough for all the flowers you'll be adding.

Step 3: Fix The Flowers And Foliage

Place the foam brick on the base and begin attaching the faux lemon leaf branches to it. Cover the base completely by overlapping the leaf branches. After that, add cream hydrangeas and roses to form a pretty layer of flowers and greenery. Keep adding more flowers and leaf branches until the entire foam brick is hidden.

Step 4: Put the Teddy Bear on the Pole

Use an invisible plastic craft wire to fasten the soft teddy bear onto the pole. Put it right over the flowers but make sure there's room so the flowers stay put. Tie it really well around the bear's arms and legs to keep it steady.

Step 5: Attach the Balloons

After you've set up the flowers and teddy bear, blow up the colorful balloons. Pick vibrant colors like pink, yellow, and purple to make a noticeable centerpiece. Fasten the balloons together and connect them to the upper part of the pole. Make it look interesting by using balloons of various sizes.
