Cotton Candy Bouquet

I'm happy to share yet another cheapie Valentine craft with you!

Daiso and the Target $1 section are my favorite craft supply vendors outside of thrift stores and they are seriously delivering this season.

Daiso sells these packs of paper flowers for $1.50 year-round and in an exciting array of colors. I chose these because, well, I've already confessed my love affair with valentines:

Straws were uncovered at Target for $1. I of course bought as many packs as I can find because I had no less than 4 ideas of what to do with them:

The flower frogs were already part of my stash and I highly recommend picking at least a couple up as they provide many craft opportunities.

Here are the steps:
1. Fluff paper flowers according to Daiso instructions. Don't feel like you have to treat them like baby chicks - they can take it!
2. Pull the twist tie on the flower taut and stick it into the top of the straw
3. Add to flower frog and voila! Romance!
