DIY Man Bouquet

Ben & my anniversary week is ahead of us, so I've been looking all over the internet for great man gifts I can morph into my own unique present!

Something I ran across MANY times on my Google search, was the "Man Bouquet."

Most of these however, are very alcohol/smoking-based & I wanted to dig deeper than that.

Great idea for a quick purchase though!

I decided to take on this concept & make my own for Ben using some of his favorite things & our inside jokes. The following is what happened!

    

 Ben is about to graduate & definitely needs some more glasses. Being the beer connoisseur he is, I though a 4-pack of these were appropriate for the "pots" (I will refer to them as bases).

 an 8-pack of Dowel Rods to attach everything (craft section of walmart)

Closer to Easter season I would recommend grabbing some Easter grass, but seeing it's so close to Halloween I chose decorative Spider Webbing as my "stuffing" weapon.

All you need to do is attach the dowel rod to the product via tape. For heavier gifts I recommend wrapping the tape ALL the way around the mini gifts. Make sure their is enough room for the gift to stick out of the base without issue.

The webbing is a little difficult to move around, but it still works.  Clear a hole in the center or wrap the webbing around the dowel rods so they will stay in place. For heavy objects this is a VERY difficult task. Stabilize the dowel rods at the bottom if you can with something flat & heavy as a mini base. Otherwise you've got a leaning mini gift.

But as you can see above, this is the result of 1 of 4 "pots" I created.

Mini Gifts:

1-pack of air heads

1-slim jim (tall)

1-mini gorilla tape

1-pack of starbursts

1-box of sweet tarts

1-M&M light saber

1-Batman plastic cup

1-bottle of Coke

1- box of sour punch straws

Happy gifting!!
