First up is a sucker bouquet, made for a first grade teacher. The flowers were printed on the computer, laminated, and cut out. I cut out the faces from photos, using a circle cutter, and glued them to the flowers. Hiding behind each flower is a sucker. I used a recycled small coffee can for the base.

Second up is a candy bouquet that I made for my sons’ karate instructors. It was part of their birthday karate party when they were 7 years old. (That’s a whole ‘nother post full of birthday ideas… will get to that later). 

The base is a recycled can wrapped in white fabric and tied with a black felt belt. The candy consists of mini hershey bars wrapped in karate themed wrappers, as well as some suckers with karate clip art in front. Green cellophane is sprinkled in for color.

 Have you made any candy bouquets? Please feel free to share:)
