How to make pineapple from sweets with your own hands is shown by the Master of Candy Compositions Dmitry Boyarovich. I immediately became imbued with this Master class, as it is very easy to perform and does not require a large amount of floral materials and fixtures. Now everyone can make such a gift with the help of the next Master class. Pineapple made from candies with your own hands can be donated not only for New Year's holidays, you can give such a sweet gift for any celebration and birthday, because fresh pineapple or made from candies can replace a bouquet of flowers.
You will need:
- sweets 600 - 800 grams (in golden wrappers)
- Styrofoam (12 cm high and 8 cm in diameter)
- wide double-sided tape
- packaging film (deep green, metallized)
- decorative tape aspidistr (for making pineapple leaves)
- knife
- scissors
So, first, we prepare the base for the pineapple. To do this, we take polystyrene, with a knife we \u200b\u200bcut out an oblong shape with rounded ends. The Styrofoam blank can be slightly wetted to prevent debris from flying around. Then we wrap our workpiece in a dark green packaging film. We fix the edges with tape, and at the top we make a tip and wrap it tightly with double-sided tape.
We cut pineapple leaves from the decorative tape, attach them in several rows to the sticky tip of our blank and also wrap them tightly with double-sided tape.
Next, the entire pineapple blank must be covered with double-sided tape.
Now we proceed to the most important thing, attach it to the candy blank. To do this, we attach the ends of the candy wrappers to the very top, where the leaves were fixed with tape. And then gradually we continue to glue all the candies in a checkerboard pattern.
After all the candies are fixed to the blank, we take the stick and fix it, fill the tails of the candy wrappers.
So you made pineapple from sweets with your own hands, as you can see, it turned out not at all difficult with such a Master class!
And decorations for the New Year, and in particular about the New Year's bow from a satin ribbon. "Cross" continues preparations for the New Year and today we offer you, our dear needlewomen, a pineapple made from sweets! Yes Yes! We will teach you how to make such an original and delicious gift.
We will combine three (!) Classic attributes of the New Year holiday into one at once: champagne and candies in the form of a pineapple! You give champagne, and with it - chocolate pineapple!
It will take very little time to create such beauty, and the result will be amazing. In addition, a gift can be made in advance, long before the New Year holidays.
To make pineapple from candies and champagne, we need:
- Sweets "Golden Lily" - the most ideal option for pineapple
- A bottle of champagne ("pot-bellied" will give authenticity to the fruit)
- Yellow floral felt or corrugated paper
- Universal glue "Russian titanium"
- Thermal gun
- Yellow sisal
- Double sided tape
Bottle preparation
Glue double-sided tape along the bottom of the bottle and the neck. We will attach a rectangle of yellow felt or paper to these strips: this way we will mask the gaps between the candies. You can glue the candies directly onto the glass, but then the effect of a solid yellow fruit will be lost - a hole will form somewhere.
Let's prepare each candy for work as follows: collect both tails in the center and fasten them with double-sided tape. Alternatively, a piece of electrical tape.
Attention! Thin single-sided tape is not suitable - it will not support the weight of the candy.
You need to start sticking a row of sweets from the bottom. We release each piece of adhesive tape from the outer layer, drip a drop of hot melt glue and attach it to the base. Place a strip of yellow sisal between the rows of candies.
When gluing, try to keep the inscriptions on the candy labels pointing in one direction. Then the finished work will look more accurate.
Rising from the bottom up the bottle in rows of "Golden Lily", arrange the candies in a checkerboard pattern - so the candies will take up maximum space.
Having reached the "shoulders" or the narrowest place - the neck, collect the tail of felt (paper) on the additional tape.
Here is a top view of unfinished, "unripe" pineapples.
Pineapple leaves
The leaves are cut from a floral tape called aspidistra leaf, but you can also use regular green floral paper. We cut the strips, and from them we cut the leaves.
We glue on the neck, starting from the inside, moving in a circle from top to bottom.
Do not throw away even small scraps of "aspidistra leaf" in the form of thin blades of grass - they also go into business between the large leaves.
Alternatively, you can decorate the part of the neck of the bottle between the candies and the leaves with a linen string.
Pineapple has always been considered a symbol of nobility, wealth, hospitality and exquisite taste. Ripe fruit is great for garnishing festive table and for a gift to children. Adults can also be pleasantly surprised and pleased if you present them with an original composition in the form of a pineapple made from sweets and champagne. Such a creative craft can easily replace a bouquet for a birthday or become an independent gift for March 8 and the new year.
Making pineapple from champagne and candies with your own hands is not so difficult ... To do this, you need to prepare the material necessary for work in advance..
Necessary materials
In addition to the main components, you will need some items from a florist store to decorate an original gift.
If it is impossible to find such things in your city, then it is easy to replace them with another decor.
The basic set includes:
The total number of chocolates depends on the size. The larger they are, the less they will be needed. Usually, sweets of a round or oval shape are used to create such a composition. "Golden Lily" is an ideal option for these purposes.
The artificial aspidistra is played by green ribbons that imitate the leaves of a plant.
Process description
The work begins with the preparation of the sweets. To do this, the tails are pressed to the center and fixed with tape or glue. Next, the yellow mesh is cut into several identical squares (5 x 5). With the help of a pistol, candies are glued on them in several rows.
Some craftswomen do not use the net for additional decoration, but immediately start decorating the bottle. You can do the same as they do. Only then will it be necessary to fix the candies much more tightly in order to carefully mask the green glass. Accordingly, the consumption of sweets will increase significantly.
Important! You need to work with the gun with rubber gloves so as not to burn your hands with hot glue.
Blanks with sweets are glued to the champagne bottle in one line, starting from the bottom. The next row is fastened in a checkerboard pattern. The edges of the meshes must always be straightened outward so that they cover the resulting gaps. As a result, you should get 5 horizontal rows.
Florist stores sell a green slate ribbon that can be used to make pineapple leaves. They turn out to be so realistic that it is sometimes difficult to distinguish them from real ones. Sometimes there are several light streaks on the sections of the tape, which give the artificial leaves even more effect and naturalness. If you can't find such material, then you can buy felt or ordinary corrugated paper.
To get blanks for future leaves, the tape is divided into strips. This is done step by step in the following sequence:
- Measure and cut from one meter in 2 parts of different lengths (2 x 10 cm; 2 x 17 cm; 2 x 23 cm).
- Each part is dissolved in strips across the width. Those that turned out to be 10 and 17 cm long are divided into 4 ribbons, and the remaining ones by 3. Each workpiece is sharpened from one edge to give the desired shape.
- The result is eight leaves of 10 and 17 cm. And six - 23 cm each.
Leaves 10 cm each (4 pcs) begin to glue with a thermal gun from the top of the bottle neck. Stepping back a little lower, the next 4 pieces are attached. In this case, you need to try to close all visible gaps. Further, 4 leaves of 17 cm are used, and then the remaining 4 pieces (of the same size). Long and wide leaves are glued at the bottom of the neck. It remains to add the last row of sweets, and at the very end, decorate the craft with sesal fiber.
Pineapple can be decorated at your own discretion, showing bold imagination and creativity. For example, tie a scarlet bow or light sisal on the neck of a bottle.
