If you want to please your lover with a handmade gift, then there are some more great ideas.

The simplest thing you can do is this is a chocolate cake baked by you at home. Do not hesitate, he will definitely appreciate such a gift. If you want to make something more original, then you can buy any candy and change their wrappers to others - made with your own hands. For example, you can make wrappers with photos using a printer, or just write nice words on them.

If you want something more complicated, you can make large voluminous crafts with your own hands from sweets.

From a round box of candy you can build an alarm clock.

You will need:

• box;
• edible glue, marker and beads;
• various decorative elements - ribbons, ornamental paper, beads, bows and so on.

Lay out the dial of edible beads glued with edible glue. You can also make the inscription a colored marker, and put sweets inside the box. At the end, decorate with the desired materials.

Another good idea is a candy plane - a great present for men of different ages. At first glance, the craft may seem rather complicated, but it is not. First you need to make a frame, and then just glue the candies in shape. Most of these crafts are made according to this scheme.

There is such an option for the manufacture of the ship.

Necessary materials:

• Styrofoam;
• scotch tape or any glue;
• jammed paper;
• grid;
• braid;
• any white cloth;
• twisted cord;
• construction knife;
• wire;
• any alcoholic drink.

First you need to make a frame.

• Prepare a foam of a certain shape for the ship. You should immediately note the contour of the future opening for the bottle, it should be 2 times smaller than the area of ​​the ship itself.
• All you need to cook 3 forms: the base, the upper part with a neckline and for the stern.
• To decorate the hole, you need to take silver or other paper, cut a rectangle from it and stick it to the base under the cutout.
• For the part with the cutout, you need to attach the second part and cut into the corners so that you can bend them inward. Then glue 2 bases.
• Using jammed paper, close the blank in any way convenient for you.
• The ship is ready, now we decorate it with braid at the edges. The twisted cord can be glued to the place of the hole - it will serve as a rope.
• The part intended for stern should also be glued with paper and glued to the back of the ship.
• Now you can start sticking the goodies. It all depends on your desire and imagination.
• You can glue chocolate coins and candies in a golden wrapper to the bow. Glue square sweets to the stern.

Then the sails are executed.

• To make sails, you need pieces of wire of different sizes and white fabric: 2 rectangles and 1 triangle. We decorate these pieces of fabric with braid and make lines so that it seems that the sails are folded.
• We thread the wire into rectangular sails, and attach a cord to the triangular sail and pull it along the deck, then tie it to the sails.
• If desired, you can add a chest with coins, decorated to your taste. The final touch - put a bottle of alcohol in the hole. The gift is ready!

If you want to make a surprise with alcohol, but this option seems too complicated for you, then you can try these two original ideas.

To make such a pineapple, you will need candies with a golden wrapper, decorative green paper and champagne itself. We glue the bottle with sweets in a circle. We do the pineapple tail as follows: we cut out petals of different sizes from paper. Glue the three or four largest petals so that they form a round hole. Next, glue the remaining petals in a circle and put on the resulting tail on the neck. Done!

You can make such a creative gift if you do not want to give alcohol. To do this, we need an empty Coca-cola bottle. First you need to melt the chocolate and pour into the container by about a quarter. Until the chocolate has frozen, it must be carefully distributed over the entire inner surface of the bottle, turning it around in a circle. Next, put the workpiece in the freezer.

As soon as you are convinced that the chocolate is well frozen, we take out a bottle and carefully remove it with a construction knife. The label and cap must be left to decorate the chocolate bottle. With the help of a funnel, we fill in M&M »s and other small sweets, put on the lid and the chocolate bottle is ready.
