Paste the larger one on either side of the sheet and similarly, paste the smaller ones, opposite to the former. Take a pink coloured pencil and draw a swan facing downwards along the larger cotton and repeat the same with the smaller ones but point their neck towards the big swan. It will depict an ideal relationship between a mother and her child.

4. Handmade chocolates  

Chocolates are a delightful treat. The ingredients needed for it includes cocoa butter, sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla extract and a mould. Take a saucepan, pour water into it and let it boil. Keep a double bowler over it and ensure that the bowler doesn't touch the water. A glass bowl can be used as an alternative to the former. Grate cocoa butter in the bowler and let it melt; add all your remaining ingredients into it. Whisk it continuously, to make a smooth and creamy mixture. Pour the mixture into the moulds. You can decorate your chocolates with nuts. Freeze your moulds for an hour and the perfect gift will be ready to relish.
