A heart of flowers for a wedding, how easy is it to make yourself? Heart with your own hands as a way to express warm feelings Beautiful arrangements of flowers and hearts

We continue the rubric of original gifts for Valentine's Day, which you can make with your own hands. And today we invite you to make a flower valentine yourself. This is not a simple valentine, this is a congratulation in the shape of a heart of roses and ... delicious and juicy strawberries. You are unlikely to find such a composition in a flower kiosk, but by February 14 you will be able to offer such a gift, but you can try to make it yourself, with the help of our master class.

So, for our Valentine we need:

• floristic oasis (you can buy this inexpensive device at any flower shop, it is inexpensive, and is a sponge that is saturated with water),
• red roses (you can take small ones, up to 50 cm long),
• toothpicks,
• salal leaves (or other greens),
• decorative pins,
• wire,
• ribbons,
• secateurs (or knife)

If you purchased a rectangular piece of oasis, then we cut out a heart from it with a knife and soak it in water. Meanwhile, we cut off the rosebuds, leaving the stem no more than 3 cm long, do not throw away the remaining stem - it will still come in handy. Then we insert our buds into the oasis so that they are located tightly, thus filling the entire half of our heart.

Next, we take salal leaves (you can also purchase this green at) or any other green and cut off the leaves, put each leaf on the end of the oasis, so that it overlaps the previous one, i.e. overlap. And in order to keep the leaves on the side of the composition, we fix the tips with a decorative pin. Thus, we close the entire end of our heart with leaves, and also cover the second empty half of the heart with part of the leaves. When it is covered, you can start filling it.

But first, let's decorate our composition. To do this, we take the remaining stems from roses and cut them with secateurs into sticks 1-2 cm long, take 3 sticks and fasten them with wire in the middle, and tie them with a red ribbon on top, and insert what we got on the side over the leaves.

Well, the final part, filling the second half of the heart. We need to fill the second half with strawberries, for this we string each berry on toothpicks, and insert the tip of the toothpick into the oasis, when the whole half is densely filled with a layer of strawberries, the rest is simply poured on top of the first layer.

And another small but useful advice. Since it is not the strawberry season now and it is quite difficult to find it, you can replace it with Raffaello sweets, no less tasty and beloved by many girls, simply pouring the sweets on top of the leaves and filling the entire half of the heart with them. We think that the girl will be delighted with such an original congratulation on Valentine's Day!

As a result, you should get such an unusual and beautiful, fragrant and tasty valentine.

To create a flower heart, you will need:

• floral oasis (sponge, foam) - sold in flower shops;

• scissors;
• heart shape or cutter.

2. Cut a strip of colored cardstock as wide as the height of the floral sponge and long enough to wrap around the outside of the sponge. If the original sheet of cardboard is short, then cut a few strips. Wrap with a strip(s) of Oasis cardboard and fix the overlaps with hot glue.


3. Cut a length of about 15 cm from floral or ordinary wire. Bend it in the middle.
4. Insert a piece of wire into the "hole" in the top of the floral sponge wrapped in cardboard. This will emphasize the shape of the "Oasis" more.


5. Wrap floral foam over colored cardboard with felt lace, fix with hot glue.
6. Stick thuja leaves along the edge of the "Oasis".


7. Cut the stems of roses short (length no more than 3-4 cm).
