Candy Wreaths

 I happened to run across a tutorial on line after Halloween to make candy wreaths using candy that you get on sale after Halloween.  I knew these would be perfect for my parents to take to work.  I had a ton of fun making these wreaths and am so excited that they turned out so cute.  I can't wait until next year to make more!  You can find the written instructions here, video instructions here and an e-book can be found here.  At the end of the e-book is a little poem to hang with the wreath.


Friends and Neighbors all draw near
For a bit of Christmas cheer
Take the scissors, give a snip
Then enjoy a candy nip





 The first one I made with Smarties and Double Bubble for Granny.  The second one was Bit O'Honey, Fire Jolly Ranchers, Regular Jolly Ranchers, and Chewy Caramels for my Dad's office since Fire Jolly Ranchers and Bit O'Honeys are his favorites.
 This one I made for my Mom's office with just Tootsie Rolls, small and large.
The last one I made had all the leftover candies for my parent's house.  It included Smarties, Double Bubble, Flavored Tootsie Rolls and Chewy Caramels and Chocolates.
