A Celebration Bouquet

What fun I have had making a bouquet out of a tub of Celebration chocolates, kebab sticks, florist tape, cellophane and tulle.  I had some burgundy, white and green with gold fleck tulle which made the individual flowers look so real.

I wound some florist tape onto the kebab sticks, which made it a little easier to adhere the chocolate.

I undid the wrapper a little and then secured it again using the florist tape.  Once secure tulle was added, a layer of burgundy and then white or visa versa.

The outer row green tulle was used to represent leaves.

2 layers of cellophane added and then a wired edged ribbon.

A believe embellishment painted green bound to a kebab stick and a Santa added.  The wooden shapes used in my crafting this Christmas have all been bought.  Gerard usually cuts them all out for me but circumstances have been a little different this year so we opted to buy them.

To finish off popped into a gold gift bag.  Drum roll please...

The finished product...a celebration bouquet, made with love.

Everything I make at the moment is for gifts for the family and friends, just token gifts but made with love.  I did do a lot of craft fairs and events prior to moving here to our beautiful Island but haven't pursued it since moving. 

As always I thank you for your encouragement.

Se you soon.
