Things You'll Need
Styrofoam
Coffee grounds
Glue
Pot
Silk flowers
Paper towels
Newspaper
Chocolate roses
Strawberry
Budget-friendly crafts are a creative way to save money and decorate a space. Adults and kids alike will enjoy making simple, aromatic floral arrangements with "dirt" made from edible chocolate and coffee.
Step 1
Set a flower pot on a table covered with newspapers. Put a piece of Styrofoam into the pot. The size of the Styrofoam depends on how many flowers you have, and how much "dirt" you want to be visible. Use a taller piece of Styrofoam for more dirt to show; it should be less than 2 inches from the top of the pot.

Step 2
Cover the top of the Styrofoam with Elmer's glue. Use paper towels to smear the glue, if necessary.
Step 3
Push chocolate roses into the Styrofoam by the stems.
Step 4
Pour coffee grounds into the pot. Make sure all of the glue is covered with the grounds.
Step 5
Cover pieces of strawberries with powdered sugar. Place them on the dirt to create a snow-covered effect.
Warning
Only use enough coffee grounds to cover the glue; only the top layer will stick.
