Everyone is tired of boring boxes of chocolates for a long time, and while manufacturers come up with new bright wrappers, we propose to step far ahead! A bright, colorful and unusual candy bouquet will surely impress the recipient. Do you know where to find such pleasure in your city? And why look if you can do it yourself - even a beginner can handle it!
1. Roses made of candy and paper
Elegant and graceful rose buds can be made from plain corrugated paper - a versatile material in our venture. Wrap the candy in a beautiful middle foil and tighten with a thread to match. Cut the same rectangles of green and colored (for example, pink or red) paper.
Fold the two future petals together, cut off the top corners and shape by hand. Put the candy inside, wrap it with petals and tighten it again with a thread from below. Make a petal flower garden out of a green rectangle and glue it there, cutting off the excess. It remains to insert the stem and wrap everything with green tape or a thin strip of the same corrugated paper.
2. Tulips made of candy and fabric
From scraps of fabric, ribbons and green felt you get a delicate and touching bouquet of tulips. First, cut an ordinary calico fabric into squares of about 10x10 cm. Make small leaves out of felt, and prepare the stem skewers in advance.
Fold two candies together and wrap them in cloth, as in the photographs - this is the future bud. From below, immediately stick a toothpick or skewer on which the head will hold. Wrap the structure with green decorative tape - this will be a flower garden and a stem.
Using the same tape or glue gun, fix the leaves on the stem. Make as many tulips as your bouquet requires and start packing and decorating. You can simply wrap the tulips in paper and tie them with a wide satin ribbon bow.

3. Tulips made of candy and paper
Another variation of tulips is easy to make from corrugated paper. Cut the paper into narrow, elongated strips, twist each in the middle and fold in half. Tie candy to a thin long wire with adhesive tape and wrap it with two such petals, putting them on top of each other.
For reliability, wrap the base of the bud with tape and wrap everything with green decorative tape. From another corrugated sheet, cut out long elongated leaves - about 10 cm long. Add decorative leaves around the bud if desired. Stick everything in place when you wrap the stem - and the first tulip is ready.

4. Flowers made of candy and tissue paper
Stick a stick-stem into the chocolate candy or fix it with tape and wrap everything with ordinary transparent wrapping film. Take a sheet of beautiful tissue paper and wrap it on a cardboard base from paper towels in several layers. Gather up the paper with an accordion and take out the cylinder, and then shape it into a donut and trim the edges.
Insert the chocolate candy on the stem directly into the hole of the "donut" and connect the parts together with tape. Cut out the leaves from thick paper and glue with the same tape or glue gun. Wrap the stem with a green ribbon, collect a couple of more colorful flowers and arrange a bouquet from them.
5. Sweet bouquet
From a regular roll of corrugated paper and chocolates, you can make a spectacular and beautiful bouquet of flowers. To do this, cut it into rectangles of about 18x12 cm according to the number of colors. Cut out a small trapezoid from each rectangle separately and combine the sheets with the candy, as in the photo.
At the base of the candy, insert a thin wire or skewer and wrap the paper around it. Secure and make the stem with green tape or decorative tape. Tie the resulting buds at the top of the candy, and then manually form the petals from the top.Finish a few more colors like this - and you will be left with the decor!
