Today, a topical gift is a bouquet of sweets. It can be presented on almost any occasion or just like that. And it’s not necessary to order it from the masters. Each of you can make flowers from sweets and corrugated paper yourself. How? We will teach you this craft right now. Presented to your attention are master classes that detail how to make a sweet flower in several ways. Take a look at them and make sure that this is a fairly simple, but very interesting activity. Inspiration to you!
Dandelions. We create candy flowers with our own hands
You can make dandelions from corrugated paper and small caramels. For work (except for these materials) you will still need wooden sticks, thin wire, golden foil, and a thermal gun.
From the foil we cut a square with a side size of about 6 centimeters. We wrap this blank around the candy, twist all the ends together. Glue the resulting element on the skewer. From yellow corrugated paper, cut a strip of 15x5 centimeters and wrap a sweet billet with it. We fix the structure with wire. Next, we form the petals. To do this, we cut the corrugated paper wrapped around the candy into thin strips and with the help of scissors we twist them towards the middle of the flower. Then cut another piece of paper from a size of 18x8 centimeters, wrap it around the product, cut into petals. Now wrap them in the opposite direction. From a green paper strip (6x4 cm) we carry out a frill around the flower and glue it. We wrap a stick-stalk with the same paper. Cut long serrated leaves and glue them to the skewer. Similarly, we perform the remaining flowers from sweets and corrugated paper, and then form a bouquet of them.
Sweet rose
Flowers of paper with sweets look very bright and beautiful. Materials and tools for making this sweet product will need the same as in the previous workshop.
From corrugated paper of red (or any color you want) we cut 12 rectangles. One of them should be 10 × 8 cm in size, and the rest should be 10 × 3 cm. We round off all these blanks from above and stretch these places with your fingers, forming a frill. Next, stretch each petal in the middle. It turns out the part in the form of a boat. Wrap the candy first with a large rectangular blank, and then lay small petals on it and wind it with wire or thread. From a green paper cut a strip measuring 40x6 cm and make 5-6 cloves on it. Wrap this blank around the flower, forming a sepal. Fix the construction with glue. Wrap the stalk with green paper, make leaves out of it. Flowers from sweets and corrugated paper in the form of a rose are ready.
Sunflowers from sweets
A bouquet of sweets in brown wrappers and yellow corrugated paper in the form of sunflowers looks very impressive and original. For their manufacture, you will still need a floral grid of dark color, stationery elastic bands, threads.
Cut a 6x6 centimeter square from the net and wrap it with candy. Secure all four ends with thread. Cut a wide strip (30x10 cm) from the paper and wrap it around the sweet workpiece, and then gently wrap it down. It turns out the candy in the grid is the middle of the flower, and around it is yellow paper, tucked in the opposite direction from the center. Cut each layer of this winding with cloves, forming petals. Straighten them all with your fingers, and twist on each corner. It turns out a flower with sharp petals. Secure the entire structure from below with an elastic band. From the stick, perform the stalk and leaves, as described in previous workshops. Sunflowers from sweets will be the most beautiful and delicious gift for loved ones.
The presented methods can be used to make other flowers from sweets and corrugated paper. Imagine, maybe somewhere you need to change the color of the materials, somewhere to make the petals wider or narrower, and you will get a completely different kind of flower. Make sweet gifts and let this activity bring you pleasure.
