For the lollipops you will need:

6″ paper plates
Wooden dowels
Decorative ribbon
Pipe cleaners in candy colors
Glue

Simply glue the pipe cleaners on in a spiral fashion to the back of a 6″ paper plate. Really start to swirl it once you get to the center. I used hot glue, but craft glue would work too… it will require a lot more holding in place while the glue sets though.

For each lollipop, make two plates. Then glue your stick down to the right side of one plate, add a bead of glue to the rim and press your two plates together. Add a little ribbon and your done!

Now these little Snowmen Candy Cones are adorable. Here’s what you need:

A package of 1″ Styrofoam balls
A package of 2″ Styrofoam balls
Candy cones
Cotton balls
Googly Eyes
A mix package of mini pompoms
Multi colored cake sprinkles
Felt squares
Felt Marker
Long Toothpicks
Florist Wire
Spray glue

Use a skewer to pop a hole through two Styrofoam balls and thread your florist wire through. Make a loop at the top for hanging on the tree.

Use a triangle of felt rolled into a cone for a hat, add a small pompom to the end and glue to the top of the head just in front of the wire hanging hoop. Use googly eyes or draw on eyes and a smile, use a pompom for the nose.

Glue pompoms to the ends of two long toothpicks… these are the arms.

Then run a bead of glue around the top of your sugar cone… pull apart a couple of cotton balls and push into the glue. Glue the snowman onto the cone.
