A universal selection of gift ideas for any occasion and occasion. Surprise your friends and loved ones! ;)

Hello, dear guests of my blog. We continue the holiday theme, and today I will tell you how to make a gift from sweets with your own hands for various events.

It's no secret that chocolate in small quantities is one of the sources of joy in our body and is the most favorite treat for children. And souvenirs are something that both adults and children love. Today we will combine this into a single whole and prepare delicious souvenirs. We will need certain skills and simple supplies.

How to make a gift from sweets with your own hands: surprising men

Representatives of the stronger half of humanity always radiate confidence and steadfastness, but they, like children, rejoice at even insignificant souvenirs. And their bright presentation evokes genuine delight.

Here are some ideas for such gifts that can be brought to life (there will also be photos).

A pineapple

This is a symbol of the greatness and uniqueness of a creative person. By making such a souvenir, you are not just making a gift, but giving him a talisman. It helps brilliant ideas emerge and bring their plans to life. The manufacturing process is simple. You will need:

  • A bottle of champagne;
  • Round candies in gold wrapper;
  • Green wrapping paper;
  • Yellow sisal (these fabrics can be found in floral);
  • Tourniquet;
  • Glue gun.

I offer you a step-by-step photo of the creative process. All candies will need to be glued with pieces of double-sided tape on one side (or use a glue gun later).

Cut out several layers of pineapple tops from wrapping paper.

Now it's time to wrap the bottle in sisal.

Glue candies to the bottle in rows.

Glue the leaves at the top with double-sided tape and glue them in rows to the top of the bottle.

Master classes in video format

Photos and text descriptions are, of course, good, but video mk is much more convenient.

Gun

Such a surprise will delight any man, no matter whether he is related to hunting (military affairs) or not. Guys love war games. And having fun with toy machines or sticks instead is their childhood. In addition, it is in a man’s genes that he is a hunter and breadwinner, which means that such a gift would be appropriate.

Anchor

Such a sweet surprise is suitable for a man - a husband. And that's why. Even in Ancient Egypt, the anchor was considered a symbol of the universe.

If you look closely at this figure, you will see that it consists of three elements. This is a mast, a boat and a snake. The mast symbolizes the masculine principle, the boat – the feminine. And both of these elements are entwined with the snake of life, which is the sacrament of marriage. Later, the anchor began to be considered simply a sign of a calm family life.

By preparing such a surprise for your husband, you will emphasize your reverent attitude towards the union of your hearts. This video will help you create this masterpiece:

Glass of tea and sweets

This craft is suitable for both beer lovers and kvass fans. And the result of your work is essentially perfect for tea drinking. After all, it consists of tea and sweets. So, to create a glass you will need:

  • A tin of tea (black or green, it doesn’t matter);
  • Candies “Hazel” (“Enchantress” or “Konafetto”);
  • Two round Lindt Lindor-type candies;
  • Angel threads (for beer foam);
  • Glue gun.

First you need to bend the edges of the “Hazel”. Using hot glue, attach them to the jar in two rows (vertically). Attach a handle to the resulting base of the glass. To do this, we glue round candies, and on them 2 “Hazels”. The glass is ready. We decorate the top with threads - we create the illusion of foam. You can attach the finished product to an improvised tray.

Rowan sprig

The ancient Slavs considered rowan a sacred tree. Houses were decorated with its branches and fruits, because... They believed that they were able to protect the house and the person from any harm. In addition, she is a symbol of peace and happiness in the family. Rowan branches are used to create amulets.

Sweet ideas for boys

The fact that the candy is a tasty surprise is understandable. Here are a few ideas that will please not only the stomach, but also the eyes.

Poster

This gift is especially popular among teenagers. In fact, this is a gift, a postcard, and a wall newspaper at the same time. In order to create it you will need:

  • Whatman;
  • Glue;
  • Colored markers;
  • Various confectionery products.

It is better to create a poster on a large table or on the floor. Think over a sketch of the work in advance. Imagine what it will look like on a poster. Write the text first on a draft so as not to make mistakes later.

On whatman paper you write your congratulations and wishes, replacing some words with glued edible elements. Handwriting does not have to be calligraphic. It will be even more fun if it is similar to the Comic Sans font. One condition is that the letters must be large so that they can be seen at a distance of at least 2 meters.

And one more piece of advice from experienced people: buy sweets in at least two copies. Because someone, no, no, will eat candy while working.



Car

Well, what boy doesn’t dream of owning a car, becoming a racer and being a speedway star? And even if his favorite character is McQueen from the cartoon “Cars,” this does not change the essence. You can make a boy happy with a candy machine. This is a surprise, chocolate and a toy (almost like the motto of Kinder Surprise). A visual aid on how to bring this idea to life in this video:

Barbell

Even if the boy is not a fan of weightlifting, he will like the sports souvenir. And perhaps it will push you to think about playing sports. After all, sport is movement, and movement is life. You will need cardboard, a foil tube, double-sided tape, satin ribbon, sheets of paper and round candies.

To create a cake you will need:

  • Cardboard and paper;
  • Chocolates and eggs;
  • Satin ribbon;
  • Glue gun;
  • Bows, rhinestones;
  • Lace.

The stages of work are as follows:

  1. From cardboard we cut out 2 circles corresponding to the diameter of the future cake - this will be the base and the lid.
  2. Inside this one circle we draw a smaller circle - we will glue the side of the cake to it.
  3. From thick A4 paper, cut out a rectangle with a height equal to the desired height of the cake.
  4. On one of the long sides we cut out small triangles, approximately 1 cm - this will make it more convenient to attach the side.
  5. Glue it to the cardboard base with the triangles facing down.
  6. We attach kinder chocolates to the board.
  7. We wrap the chocolates with a festive satin ribbon.
  8. Decorate the cardboard cover. You can glue lace, rhinestone bows and Kinder surprise eggs to it.

The cake is basically ready. It remains to figure out what the “filling” will be. Inside the resulting box you can put more chocolates, a soft toy, and anything else that can fit in it.

You can use the cake box for any event: March 8, birthday, New Year, Valentine's Day, etc. After all, she looks solemn.

Once again about materials for design and some nuances

Creating homemade surprises is not as difficult as it seems at first glance. As you can see, even the materials for their production are used at hand: cardboard from shoe boxes, leftover foam from a new purchase, tape, sheets of paper that are already on our worksheet, toothpicks. And even decor: lace, bows, ribbons can be found on already unnecessary clothes.

You may need to purchase a glue gun and corrugated paper, although alternatives can be found for them.

And if you go to stores that sell handmade products, you can find anything there, down to the smallest details.

  1. If you want to make a surprise with your own hands, but you are new to this business, start making a souvenir in advance.
  2. Choose an idea. Watch master classes and step-by-step instructions.
  3. Purchase and prepare everything you need for work. The manufacturing process may take longer than you think. This is especially true for small design nuances: bending the edges of confectionery products, attaching wire, etc. It takes time to get the hang of it and adapt.

This is where I end. I know that you will succeed. Make your loved ones happy and make yourself happy. Don't forget to leave your comments and share your little tricks. If you liked the article, don’t be greedy and recommend it to your friends on social media. network to read it. See you later!

Many beginning craftswomen often ask the question: “How to make a bouquet of sweets?”

Step-by-step instructions will allow you to create an interesting design for an unusual gift:

  • The candies must be secured on wooden skewers. To do this you will need a small piece of adhesive tape. One edge of the candy is fixed to the wooden base of the stick.
  • Next, each element is wrapped in pre-prepared corrugated paper. Before you start creating a bouquet, it is recommended to carefully consider the design of the composition. Candies can be wrapped in paper flowers or colorful decorative packaging elements.
  • When all the details are ready, you can proceed to making a sweet bouquet. To do this, all the blanks are combined into a common composition.

  • decorative tape can create more neat blanks;
  • the base for a candy bouquet must be stable;
  • Thick cardboard is suitable for the hard bottom of the basket;
  • if the bouquet contains fresh leaves, then their base must be pre-treated with liquid paraffin. As a result of this, a shiny surface appears on the surface of the sheet, which will ensure its fresh appearance;
  • paper for decoration should be 2 times larger than the composition;
  • Satin ribbons are best cut with sharp scissors. To prevent the fabric from unraveling, the cut edge must be held over a burning candle;
  • A liquid gypsum solution will help add stability to a large bouquet in a decorative pot.

The main advantage of a sweet bouquet of candies is its versatility. It is perfect as a gift for a birthday, family holiday or wedding celebration.

Just the sight of sweets already increases the level of the happiness hormone in the blood, and the anticipation of a sweet meal only increases. But you can increase your already high level of endorphins with the help of original compositions of sweets. Such candy crafts can become a real decoration for a holiday table or a wonderful gift for any occasion or without one. And the main thing is that to create such a craft you don’t need any special skills, just mountains of candy and some decorative material.

Candy pineapple

To create a pineapple from candy you need to take:

  • “Golden Lily” candies (they perfectly copy the texture of a living pineapple) about 70 pieces,
  • a bottle of champagne for the base of the pineapple,
  • organza fabric,
  • glue gun,
  • Double-sided tape,
  • sisal fiber,
  • aspiditra tape,
  • material for decorating the neck (ribbon, bow).

The first thing to do is to cover the entire bottle with organza using double-sided tape so that the candies stick well to the bottle.


The tails of each candy need to be wrapped and sealed so that the candies are circles.

Using a glue gun and hot glue, cover the entire bottle with candy in a circle, leaving no gaps.


Using hot glue, insert sisal fiber evenly between the candies throughout the bottle, which will give our pineapple a natural “hairiness”.


Using aspiditra we make pineapple leaves. Choose their number and length yourself. We glue the leaves to our pineapple with an overlap and straighten them like a natural pineapple.




You can decorate the finished pineapple based on your own preferences.

New Year's candy tree

Our candy trees are more suitable for children's parties and holidays. Their theme is so festive and colorful, which is what kids love. By the way, you can also involve them in creating this delicious masterpiece.

For this you will need sweets, preferably caramels, polystyrene foam cones; if you can’t buy blanks, you can find this material at home. You probably store boxes of equipment. Well, they contain large structures for safe transportation that secure the goods. So they consist of the same polystyrene foam. You can form them into the blank you need. You will also need food glue, preferably with a dispenser, for gluing candies.

If you don’t find one, you’ll have to use melted honey. Only in this case, take relatively light candies, for example, jelly or soufflé. Heavy caramels will not hold up.

After that, start decorating the blanks with candies. It doesn't matter where you start, top or bottom. Just follow the chosen pattern. But, it is better to start gluing heavy candies from the bottom, so they will hold each other and the structure will not crumble before it dries completely.

Using edible glue or honey, apply it only for one row, and immediately glue the candy. Once the sweet tree is completely dry, it can be decorated. For this, other sweets and candies are suitable, as well as all kinds of ribbons, bows, flowers, and so on. By the way, you can decorate such beauty with products made from mastic or sweet lace. Both the first and second will fit originally into the theme of this composition, as will their tandem.

Making mastic is not that difficult. You will need marshmallow pastille, another name is marshmallow. It must be melted over low heat with butter. When everything melts, add powdered sugar and mix everything well. If you need mastic of different colors, distribute it into containers and add food coloring, mix everything well, using your hands, until the mastic is similar in viscosity to clay or plasticine. The finished mastic should stand in the refrigerator before use for at least half an hour, then it is better to work with it.

Mastic recipe: 100g marshmallows, 10 grams butter, 400g powdered sugar.

And finally, such wood cannot be stored for a long time, especially if food glue was used. Maximum - two days. But it is better to serve immediately.

Candy gift for a man

A candy weight will undoubtedly be an excellent gift for a man of any age and for any occasion. Such a creative approach to creating a gift will delight and be appreciated.

To create a weight you will need:

  • candy (about a kilogram),
  • polystyrene foam to form the base of the weights,
  • corrugated paper matching the color of the candies in order to hide the gaps between the candies,
  • stationery sharp knife,
  • scissors,
  • cardboard,
  • toothpicks,
  • Double-sided tape,
  • glue,
  • transparent tape,
  • cardboard.

The first thing to do is to prepare a workpiece that will serve as the base of our weights. You need to take thick foam and cut out three identical circles from it. Connect the finished circles with toothpicks and use a utility knife to give this design the shape of a ball.


The finished workpiece must be wrapped very tightly with transparent tape for reliability. Cover the finished ball with corrugated paper to match the color of the candies used.

Next, the tails from the candies need to be bent and sealed. To each prepared candy you need to glue a square of double-sided tape for further attachment to the weight.


We attach the candies to the previously prepared ball, laying them out tightly and without leaving significant gaps, so as not to spoil the aesthetic appearance of the product.

You need to cut out a blank for the handle of a weight from cardboard and also cover it with corrugated paper.

Using glue and toothpicks, we connect the handle to our candy ball.

We cover the entire handle of the weight with candies and enjoy the finished work of art using the sweet design technique.

Quite often, in order to present an original gift, you have to work hard. It can take days, weeks and even months to think about and search for a suitable gift for a loved one. Especially if you remember that the combination of a good, original and at the same time inexpensive gift is rare. In this case, handmade gifts come to the rescue, which can be beautiful, practical, and budget-friendly at the same time. For example, a sweet bouquet of candies is a great DIY gift option for both children and adults. Despite the keyword “bouquet”, this gift can be made in the form of a basket, doll, heart, car or ship. The first three options are ideal for the birthday of a mother, beloved wife or little girl. But sweet cars and other equipment will certainly win men’s hearts. Despite the apparent complexity, making a candy bouquet is very easy and simple: from corrugated paper, ribbons, fabric, cardboard of different colors and similar improvised materials. As for the “filling”, it is better to choose tasty and expensive candies for the bouquet, for example, Raffaello or Ferreroroche. This will give your gift presentability and sophistication. You will find master classes with step-by-step photos on making bouquets of candy for beginners below.

  1. The best candies for this lesson are those that are oblong in shape, like truffles. Their packaging allows you to easily attach sweets to skewers.
  2. We insert the skewer inside the tail of the candy and secure this structure with tape.
  3. Then take a small piece of white paper and make a bow, as shown in the photo below. This is a blank for the petals.
  4. We slightly straighten the edges of the workpiece and fix the petals with threads.
  5. For one snowdrop you will need three such bow blanks.
  6. We cut out long narrow blanks for leaves from green paper.
  7. We fix the leaf near the base of the bud. Then we decorate the entire stem with a thin long ribbon of corrugated paper.
