Instructions

Take out sweets from packages, place on a plate. Wear rubber gloves. To simulate flower stems, wooden stitches 25 cm long are used. Take two stitches, pierce a large marshmallow (4 pieces) with the blunt side of the sticks in two places at a slight angle so that the stitches intersect one another.

Make blanks for a bouquet of marshmallows (100 g) in the form of white cylinders (diameter about 2.5-3 cm) of white color. Paste sweets 1 trick per stick along or across the sweets. To create an additional volume of the bouquet, you can make several "flowers" from several pieces of marshmallows.

Cut into slices 3-4 cm long a marshmallow braid (100 g) of white-pink color. String each piece along or across 1 stick.

Make blanks of white and pink marshmallows in the form of cubes (100 g), stringing each on one stitch.

Put 100 g of oval cherry fruit jelly with sugar on sticks. For each marmalade, use 1 stitch.

To form a bouquet, use a round cutting board or stand with a diameter of 30-40 cm, which will facilitate your assembly. In the center of the board, place a large marshmallow with the stitches up. Surround the central “flower” with smaller marshmallows.

After gathering a bouquet of 7-9 flowers, fix the stems of the stitches in the place where the sticks cross with scotch tape 5-6 cm wide, making several wraps around the sticks.

Continue to add elements to the bouquet, after every 4-5 sweets, fix the stiches with tape.

Starting to make the third round, add 3 more large marshmallows at an equal distance, filling the space between them with small marshmallows and fruit jellies.

Having made a round bouquet, securely fix the position of the “stems”, having passed another 5-8 turns with adhesive tape to the very bottom of the bouquet.

Wrap the stem of the bouquet with tape so that the sticky side of the ribbon is on top, that is, form a sticky surface.

Wrap the stem of the bouquet with tape.

From a sheet of kraft paper (0.8 m × 2.5 m), cut a rectangular piece about 25 cm × 35 cm in size. Wrap the sticky leg in paper, positioning it so that it covers the entire adhesive tape.

Wrap the sticky leg in paper.

Tie the paper with satin ribbon 22.5 cm wide, cut from a common piece of ribbon (4 m).

Tie the paper with satin ribbon.

Place the bouquet on a piece of kraft paper so that it protrudes 10 cm above the bouquet, and its length is slightly larger than the diameter of the bouquet (2-3 cm). Cut the paper to that size.

Place the bouquet on a piece of kraft paper.

Fold the top edge of the paper 10 cm, stroke the fold line with your hand. Wrap the bouquet, leaving the bent edge inside. Fix the edges of the paper with a stapler, if you do not have one, use tape.

Fix the edges of the paper with a stapler.

Squeeze the wrapping paper around the stem of the bouquet, tie satin ribbon 2 cm wide, attach a small greeting card.

Tie a beautiful bow on the stem of the bouquet, cut the ends of the ribbon at an angle.

Cut a piece of transparent floristic film to the size of the bouquet, adding 25-30 cm to the height of the bouquet, glue the sides together with adhesive tape along the length, making a sleeve. With the stem forward, lower the bouquet into the sleeve so that the bottom edge of the paper matches the bottom edge of the sleeve.
