Making a romantic gift for your beloved with your own hands
Delight your loved one by presenting him with this unusual love tree. It is not at all difficult to make it and everyone can do it, and the effect will surpass all your expectations.
Such an original romantic gift will be remembered for a long time. After all, all the elements of the composition are filled with a secret meaning – the shape of the tree and the apple will remind you of the sweet forbidden fruit of desires, hearts – of romance and fidelity, cymbidium flowers – of the magic and magic of love. In addition, cymbidium flowers (especially short cut ones) retain their freshness for a very long time. So the tree of love and passion will delight its owner for at least three weeks.
Romantic gift to your beloved
For work you will need:
- red apples,
- cymbidium orchid flowers,
- wire: regular thin, thick aluminum floristic and special broth wire, florist tubes,
- colored coconut fiber, pieces of fibrous fabric such as fine felt or non-woven fabric (red and orange),
- floral knife and scissors.
All the necessary materials can be purchased at specialized floristic salons.
Do-it-yourself romantic gift for your beloved
Step 1. Cut out small hearts of the same size from the pieces of fabric. The approximate size of the hearts is 5 cm. It is better to first make a stencil from a piece of paper folded in half and cut the hearts out of the fabric along it.
Step 2. Thread the wire through the fibers of the heart fabric in several directions. Carefully cut off the protruding ends of the wire. The wire should only be visible from one side. This will give “rigidity” to our workpieces.
Step 3. Wrap the tubes with colored coconut fiber, carefully securing it with broth (while slightly stretching the wire). The fiber can also be artificial, the main thing is that it is brightly colored: scarlet, orange, green.
Step 4. Cut the long tube rods at the base and carefully slide the decorated tubes onto the thick aluminum wire, leaving sufficiently long wire tails. The test tubes will take on a bizarre and completely unusual look.
Step 5. Make small cross-shaped cuts in the center of the tissue hearts and carefully fix the hearts on the tubes (for this, pass the tubes through the holes obtained).
Step 6. Carefully remove the caps from the tubes and pour some water into them (remember to replace the caps). Then insert the cymbidium flowers cut with a sharp knife into the test tubes.
Step 7. Bend the aluminum wire at the base of our decorated test tubes with coils and curls. Randomly stick the wire into the apples, forming the “crown” of our makeshift tree. It is important that the “tree” is stable.
Step 8. Unusual love apples blossoming with magical flowers of desires are ready! If the performance of this composition seemed to you too complicated and painstaking process, you can order a similar one in the floristic salon.
The composition was prepared jointly with the company “Florist.ru” – flower shopshipping all over the world.
