Bouquet with flowers made of corrugated paper

Bouquets of fresh flowers are undoubtedly charming; they are pleasant both to give and to receive. But think about how long the joy from such a bouquet will last. The first day the flowers are lush and fragrant, but the next day they begin to lose their freshness and fade. And on the third day, the gorgeous composition will have to be thrown into the trash. So is it worth spending money on expensive bouquets that are so little pleasing to the eye?
Or maybe a bouquet of flowers made from corrugated paper. They last a long time, you can admire them forever, the donor puts his soul into them, and the hero of the occasion keeps a souvenir for a long time.
This master class contains two ways to fill such a bouquet. For work you need to select the following materials:
- corrugated paper in blue, pink and red;
- one plastic bottle (preferably 1.5 liters);
- scissors;
- stapler;
- satin ribbons;
- wooden thin skewers;
- PVA glue;
- candies in yellow or orange packaging;
- double sided tape;
- a piece of foam plastic;
- white napkins.
First you need to take a plastic bottle and cut off the top part by about 10-12 cm.



Then further cut out a piece of plastic 7-8 cm long. Twist it into a thin tube and insert it into the neck of the bottle. This will be the handle of the bouquet.



Next, the workpiece should be decorated with corrugated paper. It is better to take a darker shade. Glue strips of double-sided tape to the bottle, wrap it with a piece of blue paper and secure with a satin ribbon bow.



The first filling option is from small lush buds.
Take pink corrugated paper, cut it into small squares (3x3 cm), connect 10 pieces and secure in the center with a stapler. Trim the corners to create a round piece. And ruffle the sheets of paper a little.



You need to make about 20 of these buds.



Now fill the hollow space of the plastic blank with white paper napkins (it is better to use green ones, this will imitate stems and leaves) to create a low dome.



Glue the flowers in the middle and a little on the side.




The result is a delicate bouquet of lush pink flowers.



The second option is to fill it with a bouquet of candy buds.
A piece of foam plastic should be placed in the blank.



Candy flowers are easy to make. For example, take a wooden skewer and glue a piece of candy onto it using double-sided tape. And fix the petals from red corrugated paper around. A total of three buds are needed.
Wooden sticks must be inserted into the foam.



Empty spaces can be filled with satin ribbons of different colors.



It turns out to be a beautiful bouquet with edible flowers.




Choose for yourself which option suits you best!
