- Using a mix of Glue Dots® add the layers of the bouquet to together.
- Add the now assembled bouquet to the tag using Glue Dots® All-Purpose Dots.
- Add some Glue Dots® GlueTape along the sentiment banner and attach it to the tag.
- With the twine, thread some trough the hole of the tag. Trim it to the size you’d like.
- With the remaining flowers, use the Glue Dots® Micro Dots to glue the flower centers.
