Who will you give a basket to on May 1? Were May Baskets a tradition in your family? Happy “Make your own May Basket” Friday! In today’s episode 132, I’ll share tips and tricks for making these sweet DIY paper cone bouquets.
On May 1 the tradition is to share a cone of flowers with a friend or neighbor – so this year I’m making DIY flower cones with the Flowers for Every Season designer paper (retiring – and on discount) and the perfect stamp set: To A Wild Rose.
Pretty, right?? The retiring To A Wild Rose stamp set is perfect for these treats. And with only a few days more (it retires on May 3!!) you’ll want to be sure to add it to your collection. Plus the dies are a HUGE discount right now — $8 instead of $34, so you won’t want to miss out, especially if you’re a stamper on a budget.
Miss May Day already? Not a problem – these paper flower cones make excellent treats for many occasions, and your flowers will never wilt. Try making shower favors, gifts for teachers (especially as we approach the end of school), or even use them as extra special party invitations! And of course, you can always add chocolate…which I fortunately remembered to do right at the end of my video tutorial.
Learn the tips and tricks for keeping your wired flower stems pointed the right direction, plus help on making the cone (6×6″ paper is perfect) and decorating.
