A ribbon flower bouquet is an awesome gift for anyone who’s sick and in the hospital for a while. So are any of these flower crafts that I adore.
Sometimes hospitals, especially ICUs, put restrictions on real flowers.
It may just be certain kinds of flowers, I’m not entirely sure. But I do know that some are restricted.
But flowers always cheer up a dreadful hospital room, as well as the patient!
Why not make them a bouquet of ribbon flowers?
Double the fun!
Brighten up the room plus give a homemade gift from the kids.
Sweeter than ever.
Or send them some of these tissue paper and contact paper flowers we’ve made. They’d be adorable too!
Preschoolers and Hot Glue Gun
This was George’s first time using a hot glue gun.
And he nailed it!
I gave him a safety once over before we began.
Showing him where it was hot at the tip and that the glue would be hot when it came out.
He did awesome!
I am incredibly impressed and suggest you try a hot glue gun with the kids (maybe try a low heat one).
He cut, glued, and formed these flowers all on his own.
Of course, I had to make some for myself too!
Tip: When using hot glue, use a craft stick to press down the ribbon and pipe cleaner instead of your fingers. It’s hot!
How to Make Ribbon flowers Bouquet:
Here are the steps we used to make our ribbon flower bouquet as shown above, starting at the top, left to right.
Simple Steps to Make Bouquet of Ribbon Flowers
1. Cut the Ribbons
I cut one ribbon to begin.
George followed by measuring ribbon and cutting five to eight more to length (depending on how big the ribbon was and how much I had on hand).
2. Glue Ends Together
George glued the ends of all the ribbons together in a flower-like fashion.
I first set them out to give him an idea of the shape and how they should be spaced apart and he took it from there.
3. Fold Ribbons Into Loops
Each ribbon got folded into the center to make a ‘loop.’
I’ve seen several ribbon flowers where they twist it at this stage.
I actually prefer the ‘flat’ look of the loop without twisting.
4. Glue Loops to Center
Finish gluing each ribbon loop to the center.
This is when you really begin to see the bouquet of ribbon flowers coming to form!
5. Add a Centre to Ribbon Flowers
Add a center to the flower.
We used large pom poms.
Large buttons would also be extremely cute!
6. Glue on a Pipe Cleaner Stem
On the back of the flower, we glued a pipe cleaner on.
I twisted it in a spiral so that it would have more surface area.
George squeezed a glob of glue on the back of the flower.
Then he used a craft stick to push the pipe cleaner into the glob.
Prop the finished flowers in a tall, narrow vase to display the ribbon bouquet!
Gorgeous and a homemade gift for a friend.
Let your kids take it to school as a homemade gift to give the teacher!
Or maybe for someone special on Mother’s Day or International Women’s Day!

My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1999. She had a double mastectomy, chemo, and 5 years of drug treatment to help keep her cancer free. Every year we do the Susan G. Komen race with our friends and family and every year our group gets bigger and bigger.

I’ve always tried to participate and give donations for Breast Cancer Awareness but, in March of this year, my oldest sister was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. They did a lumpectomy and removed lymph nodes…. 14 of 16 nodes were cancerous. Doctors said she was Stage three… Praise GOD, her PET scan came back clear! She’s through her chemo and started radiation last week.
And, now, my boyfriends Mom has been diagnosed, this being her second time. Shes 84 and is having many health issues so prognosis is looking grim. We will know Friday after she meets with her oncologist.
So, needless to say…. Breast Cancer has become a daily awareness and battle for those we love. Life changed quickly for us all and we jumped in head first to do all we can.

As an advance practice nurse we address several elements and areas of need. One I particularly love is working with
women who are unable to afford mammograms. We are able with the support of the community go into the neighborhoods to provide mammograms and follow up to assist these women. Rene Chartier

As a three time (and very blessed) breast cancer survivor, my commitment to the quest of defeating this dread disease could not possibiy be stronger, deeper. I also have lost too many friends in this ongoing battle.
I have always remained in contact and involved with the hospitals and organization that helped me through my darkest hour. I do a lot of volunteer work including meeting with patients who are just learning about their illness and options, as well as those undergoing treatments and even survivors as both a counseling and a reference/information sources. I visit with chemo and radiation patients in the waiting lounge, offering support and sharing stories.
I also provide LOTS of slightly used magazines (that I collect from friends and neighbors) to these waiting areas (which are greatlyappreciated.) I stay in touch with and support the nurses and all the wonderful healthcare workers to show appreciation and encouragement.(and I sometimes bring in baked goods and/or healthy snacks for the nurses/staff lounges and the wonderful nurses /technicians in the radiation department.
I am not quite up to Walks (much less Races!) for the Cure ~ but I do what I can to help raise and collect donations for the cure and for AWARENESS! I also fight efforts to shut down and defund Planned Parenthood ~ an organization that provide breast cancer screening to many (low income) and in need woman across the country where no other services are available to them.
In short ~ I do all I can for this most worthy and vitally urgent mission. Thank for your support as well!
Stephanie says
Both my mom and my mother in law have had breast cancer in the past 6 months. It is all about early detection and self – breast exams. Spreading the word and telling both of their stories is the way to encourage all the women I know.

Although breast cancer is not as prolific a killer as other diseases it is preventable and has a pretty high survival rate if caught early. So i thnk that in my early 30’s is the best time to be vigilant about self checks.
Pamela Curry says
When it looked like I might have had a stroke not one person lifted a finger to even call for medical help. I like their Breast Cancer Awareness campaign but have experienced so much Violence for speaking out about other illnesses I think it is time to shift focus in this nation. Shut up and die is not an appropriate response to people who suffer with other diseases. And I’ve given support to Breast Cancer victims throughout my life to have them make me a victim, PR is not a affirmation that what happened to you makes your life more important than that of someone else. Unbelievable unbalance and Obama’s Health care program has made it worse for those of us not covered in Florida.

I love taking baskets of munchies, puzzle books, bottles of water and various activities, chapstick, etc. to hospitals where patients are either staying or coming and going for Chemo. Sometimes family members don’t think to bring things with them and they’re often waiting for a good length of time. Just a way to show them we care and are aware that they’re going through a life-changing event. Makes it a little more personal. Thanks so much for the chance to win!
