How to Make Flower Arrangements Using Tea Cups

Tea Cup Centerpiece

• 1

  Create a stacked tea cup centerpiece as an eye-catching display. Use inexpensive tea cups and saucers as you won't be able to reuse them. Place one tea cup saucer in the center of the party table and place a ring of hot glue around the center.

• 2

  Set a tea cup onto the hot glue and press it down to create a firm hold. Place a ring of hot glue around the tea cup rim and press another saucer onto it.

• 3

  Create a circle of hot glue around the middle of the saucer and press one more tea cup onto it. Finish the project by gluing one more saucer and one more tea cup to the stack.

• 4

  Fill the top tea cup with water. Make a bouquet of small flowers, such as sweetheart roses or lilies of the valley, and cut the stems to fit the tea cup. Insert the flowers into the tea cup.

  Fill the tea cups with water. Create a mini bouquet of fresh flowers for each cup. Design a vibrant mix of yellow daisies, orange roses and purple hydrangeas as one arrangement idea. Use one large flower, such as a pink peony, in each cup as another option.
