Happy New Year Everyone!!!
A great alternative to a traditional bunch of flowers for a baby shower — one made of baby clothes!
Materials
- A selection of baby clothes and accessories
- Fake greenery
- Cellophane
- Tissue paper
- Ribbon
- Thick gardening wire
Instructions
-
Roll each piece of clothing into a rose shape by folding items lengthwise into slim forms, then rolling them to create flower shapes. Flowers come in all shapes and sizes so don't worry too much about making them all look identical!
-
Twist a piece of gardening wire around the base of each flower to hold its shape.
-
Arrange tissue paper and fake greenery as a base for your bouquet.
-
Position the clothing flowers on top, interspersing them with greenery for a natural look.
-
Roll the bouquet together, securing it with double-sided tape, and wrap in cellophane. Tie the cellophane with ribbon to finish.
You could wrap your bouquet with a baby blanket or muslin, you could use real greenery or include small toys in the bouquet!
