Valentine candy bouquet diy – Step 2. Make 'candy flowers'.

a) Prepare chocolate hearts and wooden skewers.

If you live outside of the USA and can’t find candy hearts in solid colored red or pink wrappers, cut hearts out of red or pink tissue paper or cellophane and secure them on top of candy hearts with tiny pieces of Scotch tape.

Thread two hearts on to a wooden skewer (insert the sharp end of the skewer into the candy hearts). Don’t let the tip of the skewer go right through the top chocolate heart.

b) Prepare Kit Kat fun size candy bars and wooden skewers.

Note: You can use valentine candy pieces instead of regular candy.

Using clear packing tape or hot glue (use a low-temperature glue gun), attach a wooden skewer to the back of each candy bar.

Cute Valentine’s day gifts – Step 3.

Prepare narrow red and pink ribbon (1/2" sheer ribbon in this example) or Valentine's Day ribbon. Cut a piece of ribbon and tie a small bow at the base of each 'candy flower'.
