Oh another great idea for my list, my step dad is chocolate mad and i was wondering what i could do with chocolate instead of just chucking it into a box.

Wow those are amazing bouquets, any ideas anyone on how to make one of the table deocrations, flower arranging not my thing usually but they would look great on a table. I particularly like the last one, white and silve, so any links would be great on how to acieve a similar!! effect.
Thanks again for the link

I sellotaped bamboo skewers to the backs of the sweets and then stuck them into an oasis.
