But you can even turn the most ordinary item into an original gift. For example, if you make a bouquet of socks, you can save money and at the same time amuse the recipient. The fabric is soft and folds easily, and the elongated curved shape of the sock is very convenient for folding a rose out of it.
This option is probably suitable as a gift for February 23 for my husband. And you can always give a guy a bouquet of socks on February 14th. Young people have a good sense of humor.

We begin to twist the sock into a tube around a wooden skewer. We form neat folds, make the workpiece look like a pink bud.
In the lower part, we fix the fabric flower with threads.
From each sock we make a rose on a skewer. From each pair of socks, two flowers are obtained.
We hide the threads under a thin green ribbon for decoration. We curl its ends with a scissor blade.
To get an odd number of flowers in the bouquet, we will make another rose from a silk scarf. Fold it diagonally twice. We turn a tube around a wooden skewer. We fix in the lower part with a thread. Spread out the corners. Decorate with a decorative ribbon.
Putting roses from socks together. Wooden skewers are tightly pressed together, fixed with threads.
