4. Gumdrop Topiaries for Elegant Candy Displays
Topiaries offer an elegant decorative element that elevates any table. A gumdrop topiary works especially well for weddings, showers, and candy land themes. To make one, you need a foam ball, a small pot or container, a wooden dowel, and plenty of gumdrops.
First, secure the foam ball to the top of the dowel. Insert the other end of the dowel into the container and pack it tightly with stones, floral foam, or sand to keep it stable. Next, cover the foam ball by inserting toothpicks and attaching gumdrops. A single color topiary looks sophisticated, while a mix of colors creates a playful candy shop vibe.
Place a ribbon around the base of the dowel and add tissue paper or decorative moss inside the pot. This simple decoration instantly becomes a centerpiece that draws attention.
