This candy bouquet gift idea comes from Lorrie Look’s 3rd grade Handmaiden class.  It’s so easy all the girls made one for their mothers and they turned out so cute!

Here’s what you’ll need:

1 plastic cup

beans, rice or sand for weight

1 piece of festive tissue

1 styrofoam block 2″ square

Decorative paper shreds

assorted individually wrapped candies

toothpicks and hot glue

1.  Pour some weighting material into the bottom of the cup, just enough to keep it from tipping.

2.  Wrap the cup in tissue.

3. Stick the styrofoam block into the tissue wrapped cup and top with some paper shreds.

4.  Use a hot glue gun to attach the toothpicks to the candy and stick them in the foam in an attractive arrangement.  Then get someone cute to present it for you.
