Tips, Tricks, and Ideas for Making a Candy Bar Snowman…

• feel free to use any type of candy bar – I used a Hershey’s bar, but this craft is completely customizable
• the white cardstock is a great idea for the paper – It folds just like a thick wrapping paper
• you can use scotch tape to secure the paper and decorations, at a low temp. glue gun, or tacky glue – like Fabri-tac
• use a sharpie for the snowman’s buttons, or black buttons
• you don’t have to add the scarf ribbon and the buttons below it – It’s just an added touch
•  get your mittens at Dollar Tree – they are only $1 for a set and they have several cute pairs to choose from

You’ll Need:

• 6-inch by 6-inch white card stock – for a full-size Hershy Bar, I cut about a 6-inch by 6-inch square
• Sharpies – black and orange
• 3/8 inch ribbon for a scarf
• twine
• a candy bar like a full-size Hershey’s bar

How Do You Make a Candy Bar Snowman?

Instructions:

• wrap the candy bar in the card stock, just like you would a present
• tape to secure – you can leave one end untaped so the candy bar slides out easily, but be sure to tape the bottom so it doesn’t slide out and break
• set the mittens out so they are evenly lined up  – one on top of the other
• tie a string around them – just below the fingers and tie them into a knot
• slide one of the mittens over your wrapped candy bar
• decorate with a black Sharpie for eyes, and mouth
• use an orange Sharpie for the carrot nose
• optional: add a ribbon just under the mouth to represent the scarf
• just under the ribbon, add more black circles for the buttons

That’s it! Happy Holidays!
