Art Attack: Chocolate Bouquet

Chocolate Bouquet

Starting the blog with my best creation... Chocolate bouquet... which I created for my hubby on his recent birthday

The things I used are not at all expensive and easy to find:
- Bamboo Bouquet stand(which can be found in any flower bouquet shop)
- Floral Foam(again from flower shop)
- Chocolates(which can be handmade or can be bought for eg Ferrero Rocher)
- Kite paper(any stationary shop)
- Ribbon
- Decorating stems(which is from Flower shop)
- Other decorative items (such as thermocol balls, glitter ribbons etc)
- Green tape optional

Simple steps(creation time about 1 hr):

1. First put decorative stems in the chocolates(by making holes in the chocolates).. Use Kite paper as leaves for the chocolates so they look like flowers and secure the end of leaves(so they don't move from their place) with either green tape or clear tape ... Repeat this process for chocolates...
2. Once all chocolates you want in the bouquet are made in the form of flowers.. you need to make the Foam wet by putting it in a mug of water and leaving it for 2 mins
3. put the foam in the Bouquet stand or bamboo baskets..
4. insert the chocolates in the foam inside the bamboo stand/basket
5. use the decorative stems along with chocolate flowerzPut thermocol balls on the foam
6. Tie ribbon and glitter ribbons to tie around the bouquet stand
7. Optional- Put a personal note(Like I did: Chocolates for my Chocolaty Sweet Hubby) on the bouquet and deliver at the door step in the morning
