DIY Neon Chocolate Factory and Mad Tea Party

Hi DIY-ers!
If you are interested in pom poms, foam, and pipe cleaning artwork or you have a love for the films Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory or Alice in Wonderland, you may be interested in this crafty DIY project.


My friend and I decided to start on a collaborative art project using the following above materials. We chose cardboard as our base for the M&B's Chocolate Factory inspired by the film and book Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. The chocolate river and the flooring was constructed with the foam while most of the candy and other sweets were made with pipe-cleaners and googly eyes.


After finishing the Chocolate Factory we decided to start another project but larger then the last. We discussed some ideas and came up with the Mad Tea Party from the film and novel Alice in Wonderland. Below is the result of hours of twisting, cutting, hot gluing, and painting. The chairs, table, and base were cut, painted, then glued together. As you can see we went crazy with the pipe-cleaners, pom poms, and googly eyes. There are several original characters from the film/novel in this DIY such as the Cheshire Cat, the Caterpillar, and Queen of Hearts. There are several extra characters added as well.


The table is filled with a huge cake as the centerpiece, teapots, tea cups, and cupcakes. This was a fun project and I hope you enjoyed this colorful DIY.
