Our publication contains fascinating master classes and extraordinary ideas on how to make tea and coffee bouquets.
Beautiful bouquet of tea and coffee
Option 1.
In order for the bouquet to retain its shape for a long time and not fall apart, a floral frame should be taken as a basis. In this version of the bouquet, a frame with a diameter of 20 cm and coffee and tea packaged in 30 grams were used. Place coffee and tea on the frame in a loose order.
Dilute the bouquet with pound cakes, bows made of narrow satin ribbons and sweets.
Cover the bouquet with transparent film, then wrap the frame with the filling in it.
Wrap it up. Decorate the top of the bouquet with artificial flowers or flowers made from ribbons.
Option 2.
- Quietly cut out a rectangle of arbitrary size from paper, place a bag of tea or coffee in the center of which, and then place the paper and packaging in a floral frame.
- Place a box of sweets on top of the coffee and tea and decorate it with ribbon.
- Cover the bouquet with floral film.
- Wrap in crepe paper and decorate with satin ribbons.
How to make a candy bouquet
- Cut the corrugated paper into pieces approximately 8 by 12 cm, fold them in half, cut the ends in the form of semicircles.
- Take the candies and tape them onto the skewers, then decorate these blanks with corrugated paper so that you get sweet roses with a candy-shaped core;
- For splendor, make leaves from green or light green paper. These are pieces approximately 1 by 10 cm with rounded ends. Make them larger, because each flower requires several leaves.
- Glue the resulting green semicircles, twisting the ends, below the petals of the resulting roses. Use the remaining green paper to decorate the skewers so that they do not show through in your bouquet. Secure it with a glue gun.
Collect your delicious bouquet. Tie it with thread for strength and for beauty, wrap it in several layers of paper of a matching color. Decorate with ribbons and beads.

DIY tea bouquet, master class
Both packaged tea and the arrangement of tea boxes with packaged varieties can act as a filler for the composition. We propose to make a bouquet exclusively from packaged tea of the same weight in 6 different packages.
Place the tea packages on a square of packaging film (choose the texture and pattern at your discretion).
Then bring the ends of the packaging together to make a tea wrapper. Secure with tape.
Wrap the ends of the film with a thick layer of tape.
Pack in crepe or craft paper.

Step-by-step bouquet of tea and sweets
In the next master class, a floral frame will be used as the basis of the bouquet. You can buy them at any flower shop, and they come in different shapes, colors and sizes. Also prepare bags of loose tea, decorated with ribbons or other elements. If tea packaging does not fit into the color palette of the bouquet, you can additionally place it in packaging envelopes made by yourself according to the pattern in the picture. You can also put coffee beans in these bags.
Fill the bottom of the frame generously with sisal to match the entire composition, place tea and a small box of sweets in any shape.
Wrap the bouquet in transparent film.
Make packaging from thick crepe paper (how it differs from corrugated paper in our publication: “The difference between crepe paper and corrugated paper”). To do this, cut a piece with a height equal to the bouquet + 15 cm and a width equal to 1 turn of the bouquet. Stretch 1 edge of the segment across its entire width, making it wavy. Wrap the bouquet in paper.
Fruit set
The composition is carefully thought out, the content and design are chosen based on the theme of the event. It is appropriate to give a delicious selection for any occasion: birthday, March 8, New Year, wedding.

Exotic varieties of mango, coconut, and passion fruit are in demand, adding an extravagant touch.
The final stage is packaging with rectangular sheets of craft paper or other material to colorfully frame the bouquet, highlighting its beauty.
DIY coffee and tea bouquet

You can arrange a composition of tea, coffee and sweets using a basket with wide and flat sides. To keep the entire structure in place, you need to put a piece of foam on the bottom of the basket or blow out the bottom with foam.

Beautiful gift bouquets of tea and coffee, ideas with photos and explanations
Option 1.
The creation of this bouquet involves loose coffee and tea, packaged in individual bags in the shape of a triangle, crepe paper, film for packaging and satin ribbons for decoration. Drink packages are best placed on a floral frame. This way you will get a convenient base for the bouquet. The frame can be replaced by a transparent film, then the construction of the bouquet itself will be slightly different. In this embodiment, film was used on which packages of tea and coffee were laid out with the labels facing down. Then the packaging was assembled, and a convenient handle was made from its ends using tape. Then they packed it in crepe paper.
Option 2.
Wicker baskets look original and expensive, filled not only with raw materials for creating noble drinks, but also with jars of sweets, nuts and packages of dried fruits. To do this, the bottom of the basket is decorated with sisal or wrapping paper, and the entire space is filled with pleasant gifts. Decorate the basket and its handle with flowers and ribbons as desired.
Option 3.
Fresh flowers can serve as the main decoration of a coffee and tea bouquet. A ready-made bouquet of fresh flowers is placed in the center of the floral frame. The space around the frame is filled with sisal, and packages of coffee and tea are glued to its walls. The bouquet is wrapped in gift wrapping and complemented with floral mesh.
How to choose a gift idea
The approaching holiday itself will give you a gift idea. Colorful packages of sweets are traditionally given as gifts for the New Year. Usually this is: chocolate Santa Claus, bunnies, bears, gingerbread trees.
Completely different ideas come to mind on the eve of Valentine's Day. Heart-shaped cakes will come in handy on such a day. On February 23, it is nice to give your spouse a large chocolate medal with a solemn inscription and a cake.
It's harder to come up with a birthday gift. In this case, you need to consider: the souvenir is intended for a boy or girl. Not only the age of the birthday person is important, but also his hobbies. One girl likes knitting, and the other ballet.
A guy who is a racing fan will definitely like a gift made of candies that imitate the shape of a motorcycle or racing car. A friend who spends hours on end playing a musical instrument will love a piano glued together from her favorite chocolates.
If you decide to make a gift from a set of sweets with your own hands, try to carefully find out in advance about the preferences and tastes of the hero of the occasion.
You also need to remember that a gift for dad or mom can be humorous, cheerful, and kind. If you give your mother a beautiful saucepan filled with her favorite candies, the whole family will enjoy it, and the saucepan will come in handy around the house.
However, a souvenir intended for a colleague, teacher, or distant relative should be considered. It is good if it is accompanied by delicate details and respectful inscriptions. For example, flowers made of chocolate will not offend anyone.
For anniversaries, sweets are sometimes pasted onto whatman paper. It is beautiful to assemble and arrange a significant date from chocolates, sweets, and Kinder surprise eggs.
A bright box with chocolates, bunnies, and bear cubs, placed in the hands of a large doll, will be the best surprise for a girl.
A real dump truck, in which the body is full of Kinder surprises and Snickers, is suitable for a boy. Of course, any child will love a big bear made from lollipops, kinder souvenirs, and various sweets in bright candy wrappers.
A gift in the form of a car, a tank, an elephant, assembled from small chocolates, square toffees, will make your child truly delighted. Parents will be truly happy looking at the joy of their child.
An original handmade gift will bring a lot of joy and light to family relationships. It will please a real sweet tooth and brighten the day of the souvenir's authors. Creative work is a great break from everyday life.
Bouquets of tea and flowers, step by step
There are a lot of different variations on how to arrange a bouquet of tea and flowers, but we propose to make a composition that is not quite standard, one might say not an ordinary one. This bouquet will suit both fresh and hand-made flowers, as well as flowers made from candies in a duet with crepe paper. Read how to make flowers for a candy bouquet here: “Bouquet of candy.”
- Cut a square from a cardboard box. Select the size of the square to match the size of the tea package. Placing the tea packaging on one edge should leave enough space for decoration.
- Place double-sided tape on the cardboard. Cover the cardboard with craft paper.
- Using hot glue, glue the tea package to the cardboard base. If you don't have a gun, you can use double-sided tape.
- Decorate the base with lace.
- Wrap a piece of penoplex or polystyrene foam measuring approximately 3x4 cm in craft paper.
- Glue a piece of foam to the side of the box.
- Pierce the foam with stems and decorate it with flowers.
- Add leaves and flowers to the flowers. If real flowers are used in the composition, then the leaves should also be alive, and if the flowers are made of paper, then the leaves should be cut from it.
- Decorate the bouquet with pearl-shaped beads.
Design Tips
For a good result, you need to follow simple recommendations:
- For fruit compositions, take ripe but not overripe samples, which are pre-washed and dried.
- To give them a shiny appearance, they are dipped in an aqueous lemon-gelatin solution.
- Soft berries are placed on top of an apple slice.
- With a through puncture, grapes are strung on top.
- Citrus fruits cut in half or with the lid removed should be wrapped in cling film, avoiding chapping.
- The finished set is sprinkled with lemon juice to preserve its presentable appearance.
Strawberries or peeled bananas can be covered with melted chocolate and coconut flakes, or a drop of cognac can be injected inside with a syringe if the recipient is an adult.
They recreate assorted bouquets and similar versions, for example, a purely strawberry fragrant scattering is delightful.
