Gifts don't just need to be invented, made or bought. As experience and research by psychologists show, recipients experience 30% of positive emotions from interesting holiday packaging even before opening it. Wise people have long assured us that the path to the goal is more important than the goal itself.

This means that if your gifts, crafts, candies or anything else placed under the Christmas tree are packaged beautifully and originally, the effect will increase by a third. It's not hard to check. Let's make this huge candy.

You will need:

• cardboard;
• a piece of silk;
• satin ribbon or braid;
• sequins.

Work order

1. Draw the cardboard into equal 7 stripes and bend the cardboard along them.
2. Make a hexagon by securing the cardboard with a stapler or glue.
3. Tie it with fabric, pulling it on one side.
4. Place your gift inside the tube and tie the candy with ribbon on the other side.
5. Now you can decorate it. Glue satin ribbon or braid, attach sequins.
6. Place a huge candy under the Christmas tree.

You can make gift wrapping in the form of candy of a different shape. To do this, just take a regular “Bylina” or “Alyonushka” candy, unfold it and transfer all the fold lines onto a sheet of cardboard, but increasing all the dimensions by 10 times.

Delightful compositions of sweets, paper flowers, lush bows, ribbons and other decorative elements will become unforgettable gifts for your loved ones. Making them is not as difficult as it seems at first glance. To convince you of this, we have selected several detailed master classes on creating candy bouquets.

Elegant bouquet of poppies

Beauty can and should be created with your own hands. With the help of simple manipulations, ordinary sweets can easily be transformed into a luxurious bouquet of poppies.

To work you will need:

• 7 truffle-shaped candies;
• corrugated paper;
• wide and narrow polypropylene tapes;
• decorative mesh;
• scissors and nippers;
• floral wire;
• wooden skewer;
• tape;
• decorative greenery;
• lush bow.

Divide each piece of wire into 4 equal parts. Cut the thin ribbon into strips 25 cm long.

Cut out 7 rectangles from corrugated paper with sides approximately 18*12cm.

From each rectangle, cut out a trapezoid as in the photo.

Place the trapezoid on the rectangle and place the candy in the middle. Roll the paper into a tight roll.

Insert the wire into the roll from the side of the base of the candy without piercing it. Wrap the paper around the wire and secure with tape.

Tie a ribbon around the roll near the top of the candy.

Flatten the edges of the paper to form poppy petals.

Prepare 6 more flowers in the same way.

Attach the resulting poppies to a wooden skewer with tape. Add greenery in random order between the flowers.

Wrap the flower blank in net and tie a lush bow.

Simple tulip from Raffaello

A bouquet of tulips is a traditional gift for March 8th. However, their beauty quickly fades. To avoid disappointment, try making these elegant flowers from delicious candies.

To work you will need:

• candies;
• corrugated paper;
• floral wire;
• scissors;
• double sided tape;
• threads;
• tape.

Bend the end of the wire into a loop so as not to accidentally damage the candy.

Wrap it with tape and attach the candy.

Cut the paper into strips approximately 3 cm wide.

Cut each strip into 3 parts. Cut a thinner hole in the middle of each strip; this will make the petals more realistic.

Twist the strip in the middle. And then fold it in half, stretching it a little in the middle. Make 2 more petals this way.

Wrap the finished petals around the candy, placing them on top of each other. Secure them with thread and trim the ends. Wrap the base of the bud with tape for a more secure fixation.

For leaves you will need 2 rectangles 10*3cm. Cut out leaves of the desired shape from them; you can use a cardboard template.

Start wrapping the wire with tape.

Attach the leaves opposite each other and secure them with tape.

It turns out to be a beautiful tulip.

Using the same principle, make the remaining flowers in the quantity you need.

Sweet tulips can be collected into an elegant bouquet and decorated with ribbons, paper, bows - the perfect sweet gift is ready.

Carefully remove the cylinder. Roll the resulting accordion into a donut and trim off the excess paper.

Insert a candy stick into the ring. Tape the paper to the skewer.

If you want to learn more about the technique of making roses and making a bouquet, watch a detailed video tutorial.

Candy bouquet with organza decoration

If you want to emphasize that you are giving a candy bouquet, and not a floral arrangement made of corrugated paper, choose the option with open candies. You can choose any sweets for it: toffees, lollipops, small chocolates. The main thing is that they are in beautiful wrappers, as this is part of the composition.

To work you will need:

• Ferrero Rocher chocolates;
• metallized and ordinary corrugated paper;
• organza;
• floral wire;
• double sided tape;
• thin golden ribbon.

From metallized paper, cut out small rectangles according to the number of candies. Wrap them around the candies, covering them halfway, and twist the excess paper at the bottom.

Make a loop at the tip of the wire, string the candy without piercing it, and secure with tape. Wrap the entire length of the wire with tape and then with paper tape.

Cut the organza into squares approximately 20*20 cm (depending on the size of the candies) and fold each in half. Wrap the resulting rectangles with the fold down and tie in the middle with a golden ribbon.

Now all that remains is to assemble the bouquet. Secure the stems with tape so that the composition holds its shape.

Wrap your masterpiece in corrugated paper, preferably chosen to match the organza.

You can show your imagination and add ribbons, a bow or beads to the bouquet. To do this, cut about 2 meters of organza, fold it 1/3 at the top and wrap the bouquet (as you would wrap a candy in small pieces of organza), tie it tightly. Organza is obtained in 2 turns. You can add beads by placing them on hot glue, making “clips”.

Pineapple from a bottle and Ferrero Rocher chocolates

A bottle of champagne and a box of chocolates are the perfect gift for any occasion. Do you think this is banal and boring? Do you want to surprise your friends or win someone's heart? Spend a little time, show your imagination - and the usual gift set will turn into a cute pineapple. Even an absolute beginner in decorating can handle such a culinary souvenir.

To work you will need:

• drink bottle;
• Ferrero Rocher or other round candies in a golden wrapper;
• yellow sisal (palm fiber);
• green aspidistra ribbon;
• glue gun;
• leg-split.

Glue a layer of sisal to the bottom of the bottle.

Glue the first row of candies to it tightly to each other.

Glue the second row of sisal and candy, positioning them offset from the first row.

Continue gluing the bottle according to this pattern up to the neck. The last one should be sisal.

Cut pineapple leaves from aspirin tape.

To do this, take 3 strips of length 10 cm and 15 cm.

Fold each strip in half twice.

Cut off the corners at the top to imitate a leaf.

These are the gear blanks you get.

Tear them into separate leaves.

Glue 3 rows of small leaves to the top of the bottle, then 3 rows of large ones.

Wrap the bottom of the leaves with a rope, going down to the sisal layer, and secure with glue.

If you are unable to find aspirid, make leaves made of crepe paper or felt.

Such a sweet handmade pineapple is not a shame to present for any holiday.

On each turn of paper one by one (on each layer), make transverse cuts.

Using nail scissors, cut out the sunflower petals.

Use double-sided tape to secure the tails of the candies so that they do not stick out. Glue the prepared candies to the base.

Print Thanks, great lesson +1

Everyone loves sweets: both children and adults. Therefore, we suggest that you and your child make a simple craft in the form of a favorite delicacy. To make it, choose beautiful paper. You can take shiny or matte, or maybe you like it with beautiful patterns. In any case, the manufacturing steps for any paper will be the same.

• A square sheet of double-sided paper

Step-by-step photo lesson:

To create candy, it is best to choose designer paper so that it looks like a wrapper. Various patterns, ornaments and designs will only embellish the finished craft. First, fold a square piece of paper in half.

Let's open it. There is a vertical fold line right in the middle of the square.

Then we divide our square into three equal parts by eye. For this purpose, you can take a ruler and a pencil to make it easier to measure.

Bend the bottom part up.

And then the top down.

Turn it over. We bend the workpiece in half to form a vertical fold line.

Bend the right side to the left.

Then we retreat 0.5 cm and bend it back to the right side. You will end up with a slight bend.

We'll do the same on the left side. Make sure that the distance from the central vertical fold is the same as the right side.

We bend the lower and upper corners along the sides.

We turn it over and get this wonderful paper craft called “origami candy.”
This craft can be turned into a postcard if you sign the wishes and the name of the recipient. In the middle of the candy you can beautifully write a congratulatory phrase, on the sides - from whom and to whom, but at the back - the congratulation text itself. Since the postcard is small, the text should be short but succinct. So you need to think about the text in advance before writing it.
