Now that your children have grown up and left home, it is time to do something about their old toys. How about turning them into decorative items for your house?

Those small tea sets among your children’s toys can prove to be wonderful for household decorations.

What you can do is instead of placing shredded paper into the recycle bin, you can put it into the bottom of the tea cup.

Once you have placed the paper, put a few artificial flowers on top of it. You can easily find these flowers in a nearby crafts store.

The stems of the flowers will need to be cut off. Otherwise, the flowers will not sit on top of the cup. If you don’t want to place artificial flowers in the cups, then you can try something else. You can also turn them into candy dishes.

To make a candy dish, you need to stick a large piece of rubber at the bottom. Your nearby crafts store will have these rubber pieces available. Also get some extra strong glue to stick the rubber pieces at the bottom of the cup.

Very good glue for sticking the rubber to the cup is wood glue. You need to place the cup on the rubber and then cut the rubber into the shape of the tea cup.

Once it has been cut into the shape of the tea cup, you need to put the glue on the rubber piece. Press the cup slightly and hold it for a few seconds. Now the glue needs to dry.

Place some candies in the newly made candy dishes. The rubber will prevent it from slipping off the table and give that perfect touch to your house.

This candy dish can also be used as a centerpiece in your kitchen. You can place mints in it for times when you have guests in your house. If you have a party in your house or even a small gathering, this can be used as a centerpiece on such occasions too.
