Materials: Small bucket, vase, or pot ($2 at megamart)
Bamboo/wooden barbeque skewers (under $1.00 for 100)
Craft foam to fit in bottom of container (under $1 + depending on size)
Candy
Tape, glue or other materials to attach candy to sticks
Scissors or a sharp knife
Step 1:
Use a knife or sharp scissors to ’round off’ the bottom of the craft foam and wedge it into the bottom of the pot.
Step 2:
Poke sharp end of bbq skewers into the foam at random intervals to form a pattern.
Step 3:
Fasten candy to skewers. Make sure there’s an even amount of each item and they’re spread throughout the container for a distributed look. Attach a thoughtful card to the center skewer.
Step 4:
Cover up foam with extra candy.
