Candy bouquets are incredibly beautiful. But unlike living ones, flowers in such bouquets can last much longer. To make a beautiful bouquet, you need to learn how to make flowers from sweets and corrugated paper.
Instructions
Step 1
Any flowers are suitable for sweet bouquets. And if you are tired of banal roses, then you can try to make a tulip, a bell and a poppy out of sweets and corrugated paper.
Step 2
Candy tulip
To make a tulip, prepare candies (preferably round or truffle type) according to the number of flowers, wooden sticks, green corrugated paper and the desired color of buds, glue, scissors, threads.
Take the candy, wrap it in a square of paper of 8 * 8 cm, insert a wooden stick into the twist, wrap it with threads.
For one tulip, prepare three petals. To do this, cut out pieces of corrugated paper of the desired color 12 * 5 cm in size, fold each in half and twist at the fold, bending the paper next to the twist with your finger, giving it the shape of a petal. Glue the leaves one by one in a circle to the flower. You can make fluffier tulips by adding 1 to 3 petals.
Wrap the base of the bud with green corrugated paper, and do the same with the stick. Cut out two long leaves and glue to the stem. To make the leaves more durable, twist them in two layers, like the petals.
Step 3
Candy poppy
To make a poppy, take a candy, wrap it in yellow foil as you wrapped a tulip in corrugated paper. Attach the stick.
Cut a 12 * 10 cm rectangle out of black paper, wrap around the candy, tie at the base with a thread or elastic band. Cut the upper part into small strips imitating the dark core of the poppy.
Prepare red poppy petals measuring 7 * 7 cm in the amount of 4 pieces for each flower. Fasten them on the bud with an overlap, straighten the black corrugated paper core and petals.
Wrap the stem in green paper as you would for the tulip. Cut openwork leaves for a flower, glue to the stem.
Make as many corrugated paper flowers and candies as you need for a beautiful bouquet.
Step 4
Bell made of candy
For a bell flower, small candy candies are suitable. Attach the candy to a thin wire.
Cut out 5 rectangles of 6 by 3 cm in size from purple paper, make corners at the ends, like those of flower petals, cut the lower part a little at the edges, give the petals a rounded shape in the center, pushing the corrugated paper with your finger. Tie the overlapping petals to the candy, secure at the base with thread.
Make 4 green leaves for the bud. to do this, cut out 4 rectangles measuring 4, 5 * 1, 5 cm. Cut off the excess, giving the leaves a sharp shape. Fasten on the flower.
Make 3-5 flowers. Wrap the wire at the base with green corrugated paper, connect the flowers to each other, giving them the shape of a twig, attach a couple of green leaves to the stem, wrap to the end with corrugated paper.
Step 5
So, you have learned how to make flowers from corrugated paper and candy. Now you can safely make bouquets of them and give them to your family and friends.
