WHAT YOU NEED

  • 8 inch Styrofoam heart form
  • 4 yards of 2 inch wide, sheer, red decorative ribbon
  • Craft glue gun and glue sticks
  • Mini Chewy SWEETARTS
  • SPREE Hearts
  • NESTLÉ CRUNCH and BUTTERFINGER Hearts

    • HOW TO DO IT

  • Cut one yard of ribbon and put aside to create a hanger for the wreath.

  • Using the glue gun, attach one end of the decorative ribbon to the back of the Styrofoam heart.

  • Wrap the ribbon around the heart form until completely covered.

  • Glue the candies to one side of the heart, alternating between smaller and larger candies to create a random pattern.

  • Fold the remaining yard of ribbon in half and tie in a bow.

  • Lay the wreath on top of the ribbon, with the bottom loop of the ribbon inside of the heart form. Slip the bow through the bottom of the ribbon and pull upwards to form the hanger.

  • Glue a NETSTLÉ CRUNCH or BUTTERFINGER Heart in the middle of the bow.

    • FOLLOW UP FUN

  • Have your child help you decorate the wreath and give to his or her teacher.

  • Make several as hostess gifts.
