Instructions:
Prepare and create your arrangement:
First, cut a piece of pool noodle. Next glue wrapped cheese sticks all around the pool noodle. Wrap some clear tape all around for extra security. Cover with some paper shred.
Now, attach the wrapped meat snacks to meat skewers which will make it easy to poke into the prepared pool noodle. Add any decorative items at this time as well.
Make the bow:
First, cut a piece of Bowdabra bow wire. Then, fold it in half and insert it into the Bowdabra. You will have a loop on one side and two loose wires on the other side. This will serve as your slipknot. Tuck the ends under to stay out of the way while you are making your bow.
Next, cut four pieces each of the pink and yellow posies ribbon into 12-inch lengths. Dovetail the ends. Fold in half and place them in the Mini Bowdabra. Alternate the colors as you go.
Now, using the polka dot and plaid ribbon cut 3 pieces of each at 9 inch lengths. Fold the ends over to stop them from fraying. Fold in half to find the center and add them to the Bowdabra. Finally, add a silk flower to the center.
Take the ends of the wire and pull it through the loop and pull tight for the slip knot while the bow is still in the Bowdabra. Remove from the Bowdabra, separate the ends, turn to the back and tie a knot.
Fluff and arrange your bow and use the stem of the flower to tie to the arrangement. You have a beautiful DIY edible arrangement you put together in minutes!
