I picked up this cute little candy pick at JoAnns a few weeks ago at a lovely 60% off, making it .39. My kinda price! So, I bought 2. I thought they were cute but I didnt want to use them the way they were. I wanted to do something different with them.
I wanted them to be individual candy ornaments for my little white tree in my kitchen. I like to put all things sweet on the kitchen tree(cupcakes, candy, etc.)so I thought these would make cute ornaments. I just cut them apart with wire cutters. Or you can gently wiggle the wires out of the candies. And that leaves the perfect little hole to put a lollipop stick in. Wrap them up in cellophane, add a ribbon and your done. Too sweet. The larger candy on the top is just wrapped in cellophane, sans stick. I thought it looked better that way. But there are no rules here. Stick it, if you want to. I wont judge.
They looked pretty cute on the tree and you just cant beat the price. They would make cute little present toppers, too.
I bought 2 sets of the picks so I wanted to do something different with the second set. So, I coated them with Mod Podge and then rolled them in Epsom Salt. It gave them such a pretty, sugared look. Wrap them or leave them naked. They are beautiful, either way. And the grand total is .13 each. Sweet.
