I have been doing LOTS OF STUFF.
I just haven't exactly finished ANYTHING.
But there's no rule against posting something that I created two years ago right??
So here's a centerpiece that I made for a tiki party that we threw for some friends who were getting married. This was in 2011, the year that I actually finished things.
Pineapple Palm Tree Centerpiece |
To make the centerpiece I hollowed out some pineapples and stacked them on a frame I made by hammering two dowels into a piece of 2x4 (save the pineapple for your pina colodas! fresh pineapple makes them so much better). I used sago plam fronds from the farmers market for the plam leaves. I poured some brown sugar on a tray to cover the base and create "sand." Obviously, actual sand would have been a more realistic and less sticky choice, but that would have required a trip to the hardware store.
Now you know how to make a palm tree out of pineapples for you next tiki party or luau.
Since its January, I know you're probably running out to buy those pineapples right now....
But whatever, that's not important.
What's important is that I have finished a blog post in 2013!
