We make creative Christmas bouquets of sweets with our own hands
Candy compositions are made out in two versions: in the form of a standard bouquet and in the form of a basket. Crafts made using a floristic basket look more chic and expensive, and in addition, you can put more sweets in it. To make such a presentation - a bouquet of tea roses - you will need the following materials and tools:
- basket for flowers;
- material "mesh" for the design of the basket;
- sweets in foil;
- corrugated paper (cream, red);
- watercolor paints;
- thin tape;
- scissors;
- spool of thread;
- knitting needle;
- skewers for barbecue or tree branches;
- wooden toothpicks.
First, we’ll make some tea roses. Take a roll of cream corrugated paper and cut a strip of 10 cm long from it. Now you need to give the workpiece more realism. To do this, dilute red watercolor paint with water in a container. Moisten one edge of the cut and let the paper dry.
In the meantime, we begin to prepare the hearts of roses. We take the candy, slightly expand the wrapper and strengthen the toothpick in sweets, the main thing is that the filling is non-liquid. Wrap a toothpick with foil. We fix the structure with the help of threads. Now along the toothpicks we set the skewer skewer (or twig) and we fix the two parts well with tape.

Now we begin to design the core of the rose with petals: we take a roll, put it in a “stack” of 4-5 cm wide and make a slot for 2/3 of the length. You should get a “fence” when unrolling the roll. Using a knitting needle, twist the corners of each rectangle obtained (three in one direction, the other petals in the opposite). Gently stretch the paper in the middle of the workpiece, giving the product volume. Now we wrap the core from the candy in the prepared petals, slightly tucking the blank at the base of the bud. We fix the petals with threads at the base and wrap with tape. You got a magnificent tea rose. By the same principle, the required number of colors is made. After that, it remains only to nicely place all the roses in the basket, decorate the crafts with fabric and mesh material.
