Supplies:

Plant - try to remember flowers your mom has mentioned liking in the past OR if she's a houseplant kind of gal, then get her something green and lush 

Balloon on Stick - I found the one I used at Walmart for only 97 cents in the Greeting Card Department

Candy Bars - I used King Size Bars for this project BUT, you can buy regular size bars and just cut down the printable wrappers to size

Glue Gun and Glue Sticks - preferably low temp

Skewers - You can find these at the Dollar Store, the supermarket, Walmart, etc. 

Scotch Tape 

Ribbon

First, print out the candy bar wrappers - click on the links to be taken to Dropbox and then download the wrappers.

Print them out. Now, this is important - be sure to choose landscape view before printing so that the wrappers are big enough

Cut out the wrappers to size. The buffalo check stripes will help to give you a basic outline to follow if you are using smaller candy bars than I did.

Glue one skewer on the back of each candy bar about halfway up the bar. I recommend using a low-temp glue gun so that the hot glue doesn't melt the candy bar.

Wrap the candy bars with the Mother's Day wrappers and use the scotch tape to hold the wrapper in place.
