The boho style has become so popular and I for one couldn't be happier. I love the carefree anything goes approach with it's mixture of textures and styles. This unexpected twist on the embroidery hoop décor trend will surely wow your guests, and the delicate details are the perfect touch for a whimsical, feminine baby shower.
Start by decorating embroidery hoops in various styles. I used a medium and two small embroidery hoops for this centerpiece. The first hoop was decorated with faux baby's breath. Using scissors, trim small pieces of baby's breath and attach to one of the small hoops using hot glue. Continue around the hoop until it is about halfway covered with the baby's breath.
To create the next small hoop, cut three lengths of white lace ribbon that are just longer than the diameter of the hoop. Remove the outer piece of the hoop and set aside. Hot glue the first piece of lace to the center of the hoop, and then add the other two pieces to either side of the center. Replace the outer part of the hoop, and begin adhering faux greenery with hot glue, starting from the outside and working your way to the middle.
For the final ring, begin by cutting a piece of burlap fabric 3 ½" wide by 8" long. Next, cut a section from the white lace chair ribbon that is 2 ½ wide by 8" long, and layer it on top of the burlap. Remove the outer ring of the medium embroidery hoop, and place both the burlap and lace pieces in the center of the ring. Replace the outer ring and tighten it so the burlap does not slip out. Add a peony bloom by hot gluing it to the top of the embroidery hoop.
Add floral foam to a wood planter box. I added some rock and marble filler I had on hand to provide stability. You could also fill the box with sand. Cut a piece of the moss table runner that is slightly larger than the inside of the planter box. Lay the piece of moss on top of the floral foam, and gently tuck the ends into each side of the planter box.
Using wire cutters, cut small pieces of floral wire and then thread them through the burlap on the bottom portion of the medium embroidery hoop. Gently bend each piece over the other side of the hoop. Stand the medium hoop onto the box and push the wire through the moss and into the floral wire.
Repeat Step 5 to add the small hoop with baby's breath to the planter box. Add a bit of hot glue to the sides of the medium and small hoops so they stick together.
Affix the final small embroidery hoop to both the small and medium hoops with hot glue. Finally, add a small flower and more baby's breath to the two bottom hoops to cover the floral wire.
Place the centerpiece on the table during your Mama Bear Baby Shower for all to enjoy!
