My husband came home yesterday with this little Valentine's bouquet for me. One of his co-workers and her mother were making (and selling) these little bouquets to help fund a heart monitoring device for a young woman who had had a heart attack. I loved this...not only because it was a wonderful cause but it was also a very creative idea!
These are Hershey's kisses that have been wrapped together, end-to-end, in cellophane to create a "rosebud." Each rosebud and a silk leaf were then attached to a stem using floral tape and six stems were used to create each bouquet! A "Happy Valentine's Day" tag was tied around the bouquet along with some red and pink ribbons. All in all, a very clever idea!
Thanks so much for your comment. I really love hearing from you and appreciate that you visit my blog. If you do not receive a response from me, please do not feel ignored. As an online quilt shop owner, I am sometimes very short on time!
What a lovely idea,I live in England so I don,t know what Hersheys are but they look nice------------cottonreel
