Lollipop Ornament

The 4-year old is obessed with lollipops and wanted to hang some from the christmas tree. I was worried about the idea because well I know her and she would sneak the lollipops off the tree to eat them so we I had to come up with a different idea. My tree is mainly county/folkart handmade or handmade looking ornaments so I wanted them to fit in. I dug through my craft supplies and came up with this idea.


Materials I used:
Small wooden circle
jute (from IKEA, love this stuff)
 craft paint and brush
craft stick
ribbon
hot glue gun



I painted the wooden circle red and the started gluing the jute from the center in circle form and kept going adding a bit of glue as I went until I came to the edge and them wrapped the edge with the jute also




I attached a craft stick and added a bow for the pop stick. I used fishing line for the hanger but you could use ribbon. I thought of wrapping it in cellophane also but I couldn't find mine. So now I have lollipops on our tree with no worries of the 4 year old eating them



This could work with yarn too. Just think of the colors. Might have to work on some more for next year for her tree thet I promised she could have....lol

Happy Crafting !!!
