Give Halloween trick-or-treaters a spooky surprise with these special wrappers. The round heads of lollipops are anatomically suited to recreate one of Halloween’s best-loved symbols. And all you need is a pleated coffee filter.
MATERIALS
- Wrapped lollipops
- Coffee filters
- Black ribbon
- Scissors
- Black permanent marker
STEPS
1. Snip off excess wrapping on lollipop for an evenly rounded surface, if desired.
2. Stack a few filters and layer over the lollipop, twisting and cinching papers at the neck of the round candy. Open pleated edges as desired.
3. Tie the loose paper with a length of thin ribbon at the neck. Using a permanent marker, draw facial features onto ghost figure.
These are quick and easy Halloween treats that make a great kid’s project and can be used for all of your Omaha area trick-or-treaters, classroom parties, family gatherings, or for own Halloween enjoyment. We think these are just BOO-tiful!
