DIY Wedding
Cake Server Set

Ooops... I accidentally deleted this post haha... Will update soon.

Well I think all I said was that I'd been planning on this project for quite awhile and I finally did it! haha. I had seen these cake knife and server at Hobby Lobby only days after the proposal but decided to see what else I could find. Turns out $5 is a deal (duh lol) and I had to wait until just a month or so ago before they were 50% of again. I'd been waiting and planning and I finally was able to dress these beautiful babies up!

I used left over beads from my bridesmaids earrings I made and blck ribbon at the suggestion of my very crafty younger sister who said it make them stand out more. I agree. Hope you do too! Let me know if you have questions. Oh, also, I used elastic string to lace the beads on and small jewelry crimps to keep them in place and finish off the strand at the back. Hot glue was also useful to secure the ribbon. :) Love the little bow in the back at the bottom

I have been sitting here trying to figure out how you did these because they are beautiful! I bought the same cake server set and I SOO want to do this. You said you use elastic for the beads then the black ribbon, but how did you get the elastic ribbon from showing?? HELP!! I am a really good paper DIYer but not so much anything else. lol

Well the black ribbon is just regular satin ribbon that I used hot glue to secure and tied in a little bow first. Then I used elastic like you would find to make jewelry to string the beads in a little loop then just put the loop on like a tiny, stretchy bracelet. :) The tough part was the beads likes to slide around on the elastic so I used crimp beads on the ends and crimped them so they stayed in place.

Hopefully that is a little clearer and can help you. :)
