THINGS ARE HEATING UP & we can't think of a better way to cool down than with our Sweet Shoppe 🍦 Collection! What's your favorite ice-cream inspired palette?

A while back I was asked to make a school cone. For those who do not know the custom. It’s large cone filled with sweets and school supplies gifted to first graders when they start school to ‘sweeten the day’.  Those cones can be bought completely finished or as a blank to be customised depending on how much time one is willing and able to spend. 

(see and read more under the cut)

Mine here is a mix. The orange part was bought blank the green on added because I was explicitly told it had to be 1m large at least!

I went for the dinosaur theme because that was the phase then, searched for patterns and materials and finally decided to go for felt. The grassy looking ribbons are made of felt too to cover up the lines where I added more cardboard for extra length. 

There’s also a felt tip, because the tips are the weak point, at some point the cone stands on the ground they bend (there are actually even small wooden caps to prevent that...  caps I could not find in the short amount of time I had left to get this done)

Usually those cones are closed with crepe paper, but that didn’t quite vibe with the rest so I built a paper mâche volcano which was a lot of fun for me too.

Last I added the name in different reptile skin embossed papers.
