Hershey Kiss Roses

This is what has been occupying my time lately.
Hubby and I are in charge of the Sweetheart banquet at church, and I get to decorate along with several other ladies.  My project is the table decorations.  For the last three days I have been working on these favors for each setting.  It is nothing new, just some Hershey kiss roses.

My church had artificial flowers they didn't want, so I recycled them for this project.

You'll need: Hershey Kisses, glue dots, floral tape, plastic wrap, some sort of stick or stems from artificial flowers, leaves from artificial flowers, and wire cutters.

1. I pulled all of the kiss tags out of the Hershey Kisses
2. To attach the kisses together, I used glue dots that I bought at the Dollar General
3. Attach the kisses to form Rosebuds.
4. Rosebuds awaiting their stems and leaves
 5. I cut plastic wrap into rectangles
6. I twisted the plastic wrap over the kisses.  You need a tail on the plastic so that the floral tape can grab and wrap around the stems.
7. Add the leaves to the stem using floral tape
8. Tie ribbon in a double knot to secure it before adding the tag.
 All tagged and ready for each guest.
Hopefully I have enough!
