Entry #5: DIY Bubblegum Bouquet
Alison made this bubblegum bouquet that would make great rehearsal bouquet, flower girl or even to decorate the candy buffet table.
What you’ll need (per flower):
- 1 plastic balloon stick
- 1 clear elastic band
- 7 small gumballs
- 1 large gumball
- 1 cellophane cut into circle shape
Instructions:
Step 1: Place large gumball on balloon stick.
Step 2: Place the smaller gumballs around the lip of the balloon stick.
Step 3: Wrap cellophane around gumballs and secure at base of the balloon stick with clear elastic band.
Step 4: Stand back and admire how cute your flower looks and how little time it took!
Can I ask where you got your balloon sticks? I bought some from Oriental Trading and they are too small and the outer ring of gumballs won”t even balance on the plastic cup part. Thanks for your help!

So cute!!! I love this sweet bouquet!
This is incredible. I am hoping to do something like this. It is such a cute keepsake for the kids attending.
Where can I purchase a large quanity of large gumballs?
Are the center gumballs 1inch?
Gum balls are very cheap, I got 850 for only 28.0 at Cash and Carry. Balloon sticks from Party Mart, 1.69. Used shrink wrap cut into squares and balloon ribbon to tie it together.
