Let's Try DIY Candy Bouquet*

A candy bouquet that features both flowers and sweets, often seen at weddings*

It's commonly used for bouquet toss (candy toss) by brides and as gifts for child guests.

You can buy candy bouquets on Rakuten, Amazon, or minne,

but many brides prefer to collect materials and create their own cute designs!

In this article, we will introduce how to make a candy bouquet*

【Bride DIY】 Here are the materials you will need*

To DIY a candy bouquet, the first materials you'll need are:

・Silk flowers with stems (about 5–6, depending on size)

・Lollipop candies

・Candies or chocolates

・Bamboo skewers

・Cellophane tape

・Rubber bands

・Wrapping paper

・Ribbon

You can buy everything at a 100 yen shop. Recommended lollipops include Chupa Chups, cherry candies, and Fujiya's Pop Candy*

Choose colorful and cute-looking candies as much as possible♡

Here are the actual steps to make it*

①② Separate one silk flower and one candy

③④ Bundle the silk flower and candy together in a balanced manner and secure the base with a rubber band

You can also use clear cellophane tape or green masking tape instead of a rubber band!

If you want to include candies or chocolates without sticks, you can attach them to the bamboo skewers with cellophane tape.

⑤⑥ Wrap the bouquet bundle with wrapping paper (it's recommended to insert tracing paper on the inside for a cuter look)

⑦⑧ Check the balance from above and finally tie a ribbon to complete!

Here are some unique arrangements to try*

Basically, the candy bouquet is completed with the steps mentioned above, but

recently, some unique additional arrangements have become popular*

For example, this candy bouquet is decorated with heart-shaped cone cushions sold at Daiso.

They used a glue gun to attach them to the flowers*

Another recommendation is to insert a handheld balloon sold at places like Plaza.

It adds a festive atmosphere♡

If you are giving it to adult guests and think, "sweets alone might not be enough..."

then including things like a Starbucks card or an Amazon gift card could be an interesting idea*

Both women and men would likely enthusiastically participate in the bouquet toss♩
