Create a sweet bouquet with your own hands

To please your family with an unusually stylish and at the same time delicious gift, you do not need much: just create a candy bouquet with your own hands.

Fundamentals of Excellence

Most often, candy bouquets with their own hands create with the help of 3D modeling techniques from corrugated paper. Why exactly from it? Such a material is easy to cut and give it the right shape, especially if it concerns delicate bends of petals.

In addition to paper, special floristic materials and devices may be required. For example, ordinary and colored wire, decorative elements in the form of butterflies and plastic fruits, small flower baskets, special sponges, beads. Of course, the list is not limited to this and varies depending on the chosen bouquet design. For example, for the New Year's version, spruce branches will be required, and for the holiday of love - hearts.

The third category provides exclusively applied materials: glue (PVA, pencil or gun), wooden or metal skewers, which are used in cooking, scissors, wire cutters, teip tape.

And finish the list, of course, candy. From the form of selected delicacies will depend on the kind that your sweet bouquet will get. With your own hands, you can create flowers with your favorite "Raffaello" instead of pistils, or, using sweets of cylindrical shape, stylize them under the branches of reeds. Everything determines the design of the product.

How to make a candy bouquet with your own hands?

To answer this question, you should first determine what kind of bouquet is necessary. Begin with a simple option, such as a basket with roses.

It will require, first of all, corrugated paper. The color palette depends solely on the master's desire. However, it should be remembered that for white roses it is best to choose not true white, but its milky shade. So the flowers will look more natural. In addition, you will also need a dark green paper to stylize the stem and the "crown" at the base of the rose.

Depending on the type of roses, the shape of the candies is also selected. So, for example, for a tea rose round or hemispherical sweets will suit, and for all other types - cylindrical. Also, you should prepare a floral basket and a sponge to it, wooden skewers, glue gun, scissors, artificial sheets.

The process itself is as follows. To begin with, rectangles are cut from corrugated paper. Their number depends on how the master imagines a sweet bouquet.

With their hands turn rectangles into petals rather simply, it is enough just to cut one side in the shape of a rounded heart, and the opposite to it - an acute triangle. After that, the workpiece is stretched out with the fingers from the middle to the edges.

Tip: if you plan to create tea roses, then rectangles should tend to their shape to the square. If buds are made, the blanks under the petals are cut from a strongly "stretched" rectangle.

Next, attach the candy to the skewer and already on it to attach the petals. When the bud is formed, a "crown" with brightly prominent teeth is cut from the green paper. They should be twisted, giving them a natural look of petals, and wrap a crown with a bud. The same color wraps paper and skewers.

Having created the planned number of roses, you can start assembling the bouquet. To do this, a sponge is prevented from sponge and stalks with artificial leaves are fastened in it. Then, in an arbitrary order, roses are set, forming the given design.

As you can see, a candy bouquet is very simple to create with your own hands, the main thing is to show desire and imagination.
