DIY money bouquet step by step guide

Material:

Paper bills
Glue
Scissors
Wire 1.5 mm and 0.5 mm or wooden skewers
White thick paper
Stationery eraser
Scotch

Progress:

Prepare the base by folding a white piece of construction paper four times. Cut along the fold line to create four separate sheets. Roll the pieces into a tube using a pencil and secure them with tape.
Form petals for the buds by curling each corner of the paper bill with a toothpick.
Now fold the bill in half. Place a rubber band over the fold. Place a banknote on the tube blank, wrapping it around it. Secure carefully with wire so as not to damage the bill.
Wrap the next bill on a tube, forming a petal. Regulate the splendor of the bud yourself by the number of bills.
Form the remaining flowers in a similar way.
For the stem, use wire or wooden skewers. Apply glue to the paper base and wood (or wire) to secure it. Make sure that the glue does not get on the banknotes and damage them.
Use a sponge under the base, into which insert wire or skewers with flowers at the ends. Wrap in bills or wrapping paper.

"Dear" rose

The most spectacular arrangements are made from lush roses. To create one flower you will need 5 – 7 banknotes. So the gift, given the proper number of roses and the denomination of banknotes, will turn out to be truly luxurious. It is suitable for especially special occasions: a wedding or a significant anniversary.

The main task when creating any bouquet of banknotes is to maintain their integrity, and, consequently, their solvency. Therefore it is necessary:

use only new, durable and intact banknotes;
refuse glue, tape and other means that can damage paper money;
try to get by with a minimum number of bends;
Before you start folding real bills, practice on souvenir or paper blanks so as not to repeat the same action several times, leaving visible creases.

Algorithm for assembling a rose bud

The “stem” for a money rose can be made from floral wire, a kebab skewer, or borrowed from artificial analogues.

For one flower you will need:

7 banknotes:
a sheet of thick paper;
wooden skewer, toothpicks;
bank rubber bands;
foam;
heat gun.

Cut a strip 5 cm wide from a sheet of A4 paper. Roll it into a tight tube D1 cm.

We twist the corners of the bill onto a toothpick. It should look like real pink petals with curled edges and a sharp tip.

Bend the workpiece in half. The curled edges should look outward. Thus, we fold only one, the first bill, from which we get a closed bud. The next “petals” must be bent obliquely so that all 4 corners are visible (see photo). We put a rubber band inside each bill.

We carefully wrap the first petal around a paper tube, so that half of its length remains outside. We secure the workpiece with an elastic band.

We alternately attach wider petals, folded obliquely. We arrange them so that the subsequent ones overlap the junction of the previous ones. If you want a more magnificent bud, you can add a few more banknotes.

Wrap one end of the skewer with a small piece of foam rubber, securing it with hot glue. We insert the seal into the paper tube on which the rose is placed. The glue will not touch the money, so it can be easily removed from the improvised arrangement.

Flowers that are expensive in all respects can be decorated in different ways. The easiest way is to tap the skewer, grabbing that piece of paper tube that is free from bills. You can wrap the base of the buds with organza or decorative mesh to hide the attachment point. All kinds of bouquets and topiaries are collected from such roses, combining them with artificial and even live plants or sweet floristry.

Artificial stem mount

This is a more expensive and time-consuming option for attaching a bud from banknotes. It is ideal for “on its own” compositions, where all components are clearly visible and must look flawless.

Additionally you will need:

good quality artificial rose;
wine stopper;
stationery knife.

We make a rose from banknotes using the same principle as in the previous master class. Only instead of a paper tube base we use a wine cork.

We take out the petals from the artificial bud. We need to free the sepals. If the petals are glued to them, you need to act very carefully, separating unnecessary parts with a sharp knife or awl.

We make deep circular notches on the wine cork. Each of them will serve as the basis for a series of petals from “cash”. We glue the cork into the rosette of sepals. We attach the first copies of the petals to the uppermost notch. Then we go down to the tier below and so on. Each new row will overlap the fastening of its “predecessors”. And the last petals will “hide” under the sepals. Let's slightly bend them down, opening the bud and making it more magnificent.

And here’s what a finished bouquet of banknotes looks like, additionally decorated with decorative greenery (photo):

Simple

Roll the banknotes into a tube and secure them to a wooden skewer using a rubber band.
Tie the skewers with an elastic band and wrap them in wrapping paper. You can add artificial greenery, beads or other decorative elements to the bouquet.

Chocolate

It is necessary to string small chocolates onto skewers and wrap them in banknotes, connecting the bills with a paper clip on the back side.
Place the sweet medals on skewers too.
Tie the skewers, wrap them in thick paper, securing banknotes in a circle of wrapping paper.

Money topiary

Buy a foam ball base, which you secure in the pot using several wooden skewers. Decorate the skewers by wrapping them in rope.
Roll the bills into a tube and tie with a rope. Attach a paper clip to the rope. Bend one end and insert it into the foam base.
Make many of these tubes to fill the entire foam base.
Decorate the topiary as desired.

Bouquet for the birthday boy

For a birthday, it is enough to present a “modest” composition of 3 money roses to pamper the hero of the occasion. The design in this case is simple but elegant. It is advisable to use some bright plants that refresh the meager range of paper money.

It is better to supplement the composition with artificial greenery and flowers; live ones emit moisture, which is harmful to banknotes.

You will need:

bank rubber bands;
container stems for orchids;
paper napkins;
scotch;
organza, narrow satin ribbon to match.

If you have convenient and inexpensive containers for orchids on hand, they can also be used as a base for money buds. This time the roses will have a narrow goblet shape and will require only 3 to 4 banknotes. The containers must first be wrapped in a napkin and secured with tape. This simple technique will increase the diameter of the base and the “money” petals will not have to be bent much.

The manufacturing technology is still the same: we twist the corners of the banknote, fold the first blank in half, the rest slightly obliquely and attach it layer by layer to the container using rubber bands.

Cut out a square of organza 2 times the size of the flower. We make a cuff like a pound and tie it with a narrow satin braid. Organza can be replaced with corrugated paper or floral tracing paper.

We assemble a bouquet arrangement using the spiral technique, adding artificial greenery and chrysanthemums to the money flowers. Beautifully packaged in organza or transparent film with an openwork pattern and tied with a lush bow.

Or another option: create a cute arrangement in a basket, securing all the components to a floral sponge.

Topiary that attracts wealth

You can give a real money tree for a wedding or housewarming. According to beliefs, it will attract prosperity and prosperity to the house. Be that as it may, the owners of such an exclusive product will always have the opportunity to pick a flower or two if they don’t have enough money before payday.

Often topiary is made from souvenir banknotes. In this case, it is used as a financial talisman, displayed in the office or living room. Banknotes that serve a purely decorative role can be cut and glued together for ease and speed of assembly.

In this case, roses made from souvenir dollars, which have a characteristic dark green hue, look most elegant in this case.

You will need:

about 100 paper rose buds (each will cost 1 souvenir dollar);
foam ball D10 cm;
artificial bush roses, sugar berries and greenery;
soft green yarn;
a suitable branch or snag, cleared of bark - the “trunk” of a tree;
sisal;
building gypsum;
decorative pot;
heat gun.

The tree turns out to be small, only 33 cm in height. If you make topiary from real money, its proportions will be different. The diameter of the ball will have to be taken to the minimum, and the number of flowers from banknotes will have to be reduced, covering the voids between them with artificial leaves, berries and buds. Although it all depends on the denomination of the bills used.

We begin assembling the miracle tree to attract finance by fixing the trunk. Directly in the pot from which the topiary will “grow”, mix plaster with water in a 2:1 ratio. The consistency of the mixture resembles thick sour cream.

Be sure to add pieces of foam plastic or sponge to the pot so that the plaster has room to expand as it hardens. Otherwise, the plastic container may burst.

When the plaster begins to “set”, insert a “trunk” branch in the center of the pot, remove all the gaps and leave until it sets completely. It is best not to touch the topiary base for 24 hours.

When the plaster has completely hardened, you can attach the ball for the crown of the money tree. We make a hole in the foam for the branch and “sit” the workpiece on the glue. Wrap the ball with yarn. This creates the effect of moss or young green foliage and helps to perfectly cover the base from prying eyes.

We attach flowers from dollars. If you are using souvenir products, glue them directly to the base with a hot-melt gun. Real money roses should have short stems. We add decor from artificial greenery, berries and small inflorescences.

We mask the gypsum with sisal fiber, securing it with hot glue. You can add artificial vegetation, coins, rolled up dollars.

For such a dessert, you can use Kinder brand chocolates and sweets, as well as a round box with the favorite Raffaello sweets. The master class tells how to make a cake out of sweets with your own hands for a wedding.

Anyone can make a treat from their favorite candies - there is nothing difficult about it, you just need to stock up on the necessary materials and free time. Guests will certainly appreciate the result, since standard confectionery products made from cream or mastic will no longer surprise anyone. A candy treat is an opportunity to diversify your wedding tea party with minimal investment of time and money.

The meaning and symbolism of the color of the bouquet

If you have decided on a white or pastel shade, then find out what to do with bright buds, for example, red ones. This color symbolizes the explosive character of the guest, joy for the young and a whole storm of emotions. Delicate pink shades express love and emphasize the beginning of a relationship. What do other wedding bouquets from guests mean? The predominant green palette - hope for a beautiful and bright future, blue - reminds of fidelity. Perhaps that is why many newlyweds choose a marine theme for their wedding event.

Many people associate their favorite sunny shade with quarrels and breakups. Most likely, this is why it is not customary to give a flower arrangement with this color for a wedding, although it all depends on the theme of the holiday. If this is a Russian folk style, then daisies with yellow cores will be an excellent decoration not only for the table, but also for the bride’s attire, in the form of a wreath on her head. This color also symbolizes intelligence, and you need to choose it carefully so as not to disappoint the recipient.

Even in the old days, newlyweds were given branches of lilac, oak, and birch, because it was believed that they brought happiness and helped create comfort in a new nest. Lilies of the valley and violets are flowers that symbolize purity of thoughts, romance, and tenderness. But representatives of Eastern countries prefer to include lilies in wedding bouquets. In their opinion, this flower contributes to the prosperity and well-being of those to whom it was given.

Options

You can use lollipops to decorate a candy dessert. Such sweets in bright wrappers will add color to the cake decor and set those present to positive thoughts. Most often, lollipops are stuck into the top of the dessert, creating a deliberately careless composition. If desired, such sweets can be placed in an abstract order on other tiers.

Another option for decorating a candy treat is a pair of soft bears. Small figures made of plush or other material are dressed up in wedding costumes and seated on the top tier of the dessert.

If the wedding is stylized, then the clothes of the bears should correspond to the chosen theme. It is important to ensure that the floral decor is in harmony with other floral arrangements in the banquet hall

Master class on making

Step 1. Determine the final look of the composition. Disassemble into individual parts and find out the assembly steps, decide on the source material and tools

In our bouquet the candies will be open, so we pay attention to the method of fastening and decorating the stem.

Step 2. Attach each candy to a 40 cm long wire. To do this, wrap part of the sweet in several circular motions and leave a long tail, which will be hidden in the decorated stem. Wrap five candies in this manner.

Step 3. Formation of flowers. Cut petals from corrugated paper and fix them around the object with glue. The more petals, the more magnificent and noticeable the flower looks. For reliability, the petals at the bottom are fixed with a wire ring.

Step 4. Gather several flowers together, intertwine the wires and wrap them with decorative white ribbon.

Step 5. Cut out leaves from green paper and attach them to tape under the candies in a circle.

Step 6. Design of the holder. Bend the bottom of the wire to avoid pricking edges, wrap it with ribbon and decorative paper.

Step 7. To give the bouquet splendor and solemnity, decorate it with organza and beads. A bouquet of sweets with your own hands is ready.

Features of the treat

If making a full-fledged delicacy seems impractical, then you can replace this dessert with a simpler option, in particular, a candy cake for a wedding. To do this, you can use any sweets in wrappers, arranging them in the manner of traditional confectionery decorations.

To decorate such a dessert, corrugated paper, translucent fabric, such as tulle or organza, as well as any figures and patterns related to the wedding theme are used. The shade is selected depending on the color scheme of the entire celebration and specifically the outfits of the newlyweds.

You can make your own wedding cake from sweets in different shapes and sizes depending on the wishes of the bride and groom and the number of guests at the wedding. The base for the dessert is made round, square or heart-shaped, and the finished result can be single-tiered or multi-tiered.

To create improvised cakes, penoplex (expanded polystyrene) is most often used - an inexpensive wall insulation sold in hardware stores.

The candy delicacy is primarily suitable for a classic wedding without being tied to any style. By using sweets in wrappers of the same color, you can choose the perfect decoration for a celebration in a specific color. As for themed weddings, a candy dessert is suitable for fairytale or Love is styles. Chocolate and candy themes can also be complemented by a similar product.

Relevance of the gift

Money, like flowers, is a gift appropriate for any holiday. The person to whom the gift is intended will be able to dispose of it at his own discretion and at the right time. The impression from such a gift will be unforgettable, even if the giver did not make it himself, but ordered it. Although even for beginners, creating flowers from money with your own hands is not so difficult. Especially if you choose a bouquet option that will be quite feasible for a beginner. The point is that the finished composition can then be carefully transformed into banknotes and used for their intended purpose.
