Patriotic Ice Cream Bouquet

I made a patriotic decoration to be used for 4th of July.

I took a plastic parfait glass and layered the following; put a paper patriotic napkin in the bottom, next layer was shredded gift bag paper, another patriotic napkin (folded to fit in the glass). On top of the last patriotic napkin is a white silk rose or carnation and artificial cherries are placed on the rose or carnation. A red plastic spoon and straw are placed in the parfait glass like a real parfait presentation. The napkin that holds the rose or carnation sticks up over the top of the glass.

The parfait sits on a 45 RPM record bowl. It is a cute decoration with a patriotic candle on my breakfast bar.
