Easy Candy Bouquet For Under $10

 I went to my local Dollar Tree and I was amazed at the fabulous options they had for Valentine candy. I decided with such great Chocolates to pick from, all I needed was a candy bouquet. I also noticed a few items I hadn't considered using in a bouquet before, so I took home some supplies that I thought would look nice together and taste delicious and created this fun Valentine bouquet.

The secret to making an easy bouquet was the balloon holders. They are like large strong straws and they are the perfect sticks. 

Top 10 reasons a diy candy bouquet is the perfect low budget gift:

Fun creative way to make your own
 Valentine Card

My family loves doing projects.  I have granddaughters, ages 2 and 4 who automatically know if they are coming to grandma's house, chances are we will be doing some sort of project together. I love referring to whatever we are working on as projects because that could be work, play, cooking, cleaning, or just about anything  I decide. Creating an environment of learning and service, with some fun sprinkled in, helps us all go away feeling happy, uplifted and encouraged and our time together is well spent. 

This weeks "PROJECT" included making Gnome Valentine Cards out of basic simple supplies already on hand. If you don't have these basic items, a stop at your Dollar Tree/Walmart will be the only places you will need to go  to pick up the items needed. 

The fun is in the doing.

Below you will find some free printable Gnome patterns that when colored in, can create many different master pieces. We chose to make 12 cards. Once they were done, it was time to decide who to give them to. Primary teachers, pre-school teachers, friends, family, neighbors, the mailman, or just about anyone who pops into your mind is a great start.  The handmade card is a gift in and of itself. We did make a few sucker bouquets to give to pre-school friends to go along with the cards.

So join in the fun. Make a card, and share this out where you can. Tag a friend who you think would also enjoy making Gnome Valentine Cards.
