For our recent Beauty and the Beast Tea Party we wanted to add an elegant, garden feel to our centerpieces and these DIY Princess Tea Royal Boxwood Topiaries did just that! With a few royal supplies, you can recreate this look at home for your little princess’s own royal soiree!

1

Start creating your DIY Princess Tea Royal Boxwood Topiaries by spray painting the DIY Square Flower Pots metallic gold. Allow the flower pot to dry completely before moving on to the next step.

Once your DIY Square Flower Pot is completely dry, stack a Small Boxwood Decor Ball on top of a Medium Boxwood Decor Ball and place them on the DIY Square Flower Pot base.

Next, to ensure the boxwood balls stay in place, place a Pink Striped Paper Straw through the middle of the Small Boxwood Decor Ball and down through the Medium Boxwood Decor Ball. This will prevent your boxwood from falling off of the base. Add a dot of hot glue to hold the Pink Striped Paper Straw and boxwood balls in place.

Now, on to the best part…adding the decorations! We recently displayed these Boxwood Topiaries at our Beauty and the Beast Tea Party so we chose to keep with the theme and add roses to our topiaries. You can easily swap these flowers out for another flower or color of your choice! To add the roses, use a pair of scissors to trim the faux roses from the Pink Rose Garland. Hot glue roses throughout the topiary for a sweet garden look.

Once each of the roses are fully secured to the topiary, its time to start decorating the base. Cut a 16-inch piece of ribbon from the Light Pink Satin Ribbon and tie the ribbon in a large bow. Trim the remaining edges to the desired length. Using a dab of hot glue, secure the bow to the front of the DIY Square Flower Pot.
