Ready-made sunflowers are attached to the skewers in the traditional way and arranged in a bouquet. As greenery, leaves cut from corrugated sheets of paper or natural small flowers are suitable.
You can revive the composition and design with bright ladybirds, which are sold in stores for needlework and creativity.

From roach
You can create a bouquet for delivery for a men's holiday with dried fish. Vobla, flounder, smelt and others will do. The choice is basically a matter of personal preference. When choosing products for this purpose, it is worth looking at a small, well-dried and sufficiently salted fish. It will be perfect for decorating such a presentation. The fish must be carefully wrapped in cling film, and then also glued to the base of the composition. You do not need to glue, but just carefully and firmly tie each fish with twine to a wooden skewer.
In the film, the bouquet will not emit a characteristic fishy smell until the moment of delivery. This is especially important when you have to congratulate a man at an event in a restaurant or any public place.
Avid jerky fish lovers know that it is most convenient to cut such a snack on the newspaper. Thus, there is no debris left, and after that the spent food remains are wrapped in newsprint and disposed of. A newspaper wrapper for a fish bouquet will come in handy.
You can also fix the fish in the bouquet using double-sided tape. Then form all the skewers into a bouquet and wrap everything with newspaper several times in the form of a small envelope with a fish in the middle. You can complete the decor of a specific composition with a bright bow. The size of the bouquet is determined by your own preferences. If you want to make a symbolic present, 5 fish will be enough. And when you need a more impressive present, you will have to increase the amount of salty snack.
You will need a fish of the same size. So it will look harmonious in the overall composition. You can add other snacks to it:
- pistachios;
- suluguni ("pigtail");
- green feather onion;
- scarlet hot pepper.
From fruit
Recently, most men are leaning towards a healthy diet.They are less likely to eat smoked meats and refuse alcohol. For them, it will be ideal to collect exactly the fruit bouquet. As a basis, you will need to pick up something like a vase or pot, since the fruits can be heavy and need a stable base and reliable installation. Traditionally, you can use the same wooden skewers or strong and light bamboo skewers for a fruit bouquet. A vitamin present can be collected from a mix of fruits: citrus fruits, pomegranates, apples, persimmons and other seasonal fruits. Sweets, fresh flowers, berries, etc. are suitable as an additional decor.
It is important to understand that such a bouquet will be short-lived.
From tea and coffee
This bouquet often combines tea, coffee, and dessert treats. A bouquet of different varieties of tea or coffee looks original, complemented by chocolate, sweets, lemon, marshmallows, marmalade and similar delicacies. If you know exactly about a person's tastes, you can safely experiment with combinations. Arrange a bouquet of his favorite teas by adding his preferred sweets.
A good sign of attention is to put a hand-signed postcard with wishes or poems into a sweet bouquet.
Other
An interesting option for an edible bouquet would be a composition, made from fresh vegetables... An exception can be made only for pickled cucumbers. They are harmonious in bouquets for men in such a spicy form. For this option, almost everything that is found in the kitchen every day is suitable: beets with tops, heads of garlic, peppers, cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, broccoli, carrots, onions, and even a bottle of homemade ketchup.
In addition to vegetables, greenery is good, discreet wildflowers framed by a net for floral arrangements.
Bacon barbecue roses
At the men's feast on the occasion of Defender of the Fatherland Day, it will be successful to compose a composition from edible meat roses... This appetizing solution will not only be delicious, it will transform even the most modest table for the better. You can use stems from real or artificial flowers for meat buds. But standard skewers or toothpicks will work as well. Pieces of kebab are attached to them, which is then wrapped in a strip of bacon in the shape of a bud.
Lettuce leaves or dill greens will help to refresh the composition.
Interesting ideas from textiles
You can collect a budget bouquet not only from edible ingredients. Textile items are also often used as components of men's bouquets. Handkerchiefs perfectly complement socks and linen compositions. Original combinations are obtained from everyday things. Roses from neckerchiefs are also effective in such presentations. But this is an option for those men who wear such accessories.
Unusual solutions are not suitable for those who do not find their use in everyday life.
From socks and panties
Presenting just socks or underpants is a trivial approach. An inexpensive present will not leave a good impression if it is not properly designed. It is important to choose socks by color in the same range or in contrast. However, men's socks do not impress with a special variety of colors. A bouquet of plain socks can be supplemented with panties or made only from panties.
Such a present is given only to close men. It is important to understand this and take it into account.
To build a festive bouquet of socks on your own does not take a lot of time and costs. For fancy colors from socks, you must first remove all tags from paired products, prepare decor and fasteners. Each sock is rolled with rubber bands outward. The resulting bud is cleaved with a pin so that the structure does not fall apart. A skewer is threaded inside. Colors are created as many pairs of products are available.
Next, the most interesting stage remains - decoration. This can be done in different ways, spurring your own imagination. To pack the socks in an original way, use a leather belt rolled into a ring. The practicality of a sock and linen bouquet is obvious - after all, on a holiday a man will receive a set of underwear plus pleasant emotions from your care and creativity.
If desired, you can add shaving foam to the center of the composition. This will add a touch of humor to a useful idea.
Of ties
A bouquet of ties rolled up with roses will look creative. Colors and prints should match all suits in a man's wardrobe. This is a good move in teaching a man to fashion.
In addition, such a present turns out to be presentable, stylish and compact. A real dandy will certainly appreciate this gift.
Bouquets for a boy
A sweet tooth man, brother or son can make a sweet composition from chocolate bars. For a teenager, it is appropriate to add a bottle of Coca-Cola to the chocolate. Wrap everything better with craft paper. The younger generation has their own tastes for festive decor, so cool prints are more appropriate than classics.
Delicious donuts covered with icing and confectionery sprinkles on one side, and cupcakes with holiday-themed decor are also suitable as sweet elements for the bouquet. This option of edible table decoration will also be appreciated by male colleagues at the tea party on the occasion of February 23rd.
It should be borne in mind that treats for children should not contain allergenic ingredients, so as not to cause health problems to the child due to such sweets.
For those who like to drink tea with sweets, you can prepare a bouquet of gingerbread. Gingerbread dough allows you to bake any shape of gingerbread, and congratulations are easily applied with icing. Multi-colored gingerbread cookies in a voluminous cup will delight the sweet tooth from the heart.
Balloon bouquets are also very popular, the shape and color of the balloons allow you to come up with interesting compositions. For a youth gift from aerial products, you can make a men's bouquet on February 23.
Tips for design and assembly
You can make decorative items from products for men's bouquets with your own hands. Especially popular are the decor in the form of butterflies from snacks-pretzels and sunflowers from assorted nuts.
Decorating edible bouquets with herbs should be done with great care. Besides the visual compatibility with the composition as a whole, it is important that the scents match all the ingredients. It is advisable to think over by age which design you may like more - newspaper, burlap or stylish craft paper. Ingredients are most often attached to wooden skewers, but there are varieties of compositions where you can do without them.
You can pack your edible gifts in a compact wooden box. Or take a shoebox and decorate in military style or "gentleman" yourself. This option is convenient because it is stable on a flat surface.
The edible bouquet for February 23 should be in a matching vase. A glass mug is perfect for this. Fill the prepared mini vase with snacks.
