Planning for the Fair! :D

Currently making S.W.A.P.S. (Special Whatchamacallits Affectionally Pinned Somewhere) for the Street Fair. Making S.W.A.P.S. is a Girl Scout tradition! Girls from different troops make small crafts with saftey pins on the backs and trade them with friends to put on their uniforms!

The S.W.A.P.S. that I will have girls at the fair make are tiny pom-pom cupcakes celebrating the 100th Anniversity of Girl Scouting. These tiny cupcakes are adorable and easy to make!




Materials Needed:
  • Pom-poms
  • Mini Baking Cups
  • Seed Beads
  • Glitter
  • Foam
  • Glue
  • A Saftey Pin
  • A sharpie
Steps:
  1. Cut a small strip of green/colored foam
  2. Staple or glue mini baking cup to the top of the foam
  3. Attach a saftey pin through the top of the foam
  4. Glue pom-pom to the inside of the cup (I used a glue stick) and push down
  5. Scatter dots of white liquid glue around the top of the pom-pom
  6. Sprinkle glitter/seed beads to decorate
  7. Write "Happy 100!" in sharpie on the bottom of the foam
