Make Roses Out of Hershey Kisses

With a few minutes' work, a few supplies and some Hershey's Kisses candy, you can make beautiful rosebuds that are sure to delight and please the lucky receiver. These make great bouquets, centerpieces for weddings and gifts for loved ones in the hospital. Better yet, this is a great craft that both older children and adults will enjoy making.

Things You'll Need

• Hershey's Kisses
• Floral sticks
• Double-sided tape
• Scissors
• Green floral tape
• Red cellophane
• Ruler or tape measure

Instructions

1. Using a small piece of double-sided tape, attach the bottom ends of two Hershey's Kisses together.

2. Cut a piece of red cellophane into a 5-by-5-inch square.

3. Place the two attached Hershey's Kisses in the cellophane with the tip of one of the Kisses in the center.

4. Fold the cellophane over the top of the two Kisses. Then continue to wrap the cellophane over the Kisses so that the edges of the cellophane meet at one end of one of the Kisses.

5. Wrap a 3-inch piece of green floral tape around the open end of the cellophane to securely seal the Kisses inside of the cellophane. The ends of the cellophane form the rose itself.

6. Gently insert one of the floral sticks into the base of the rose, being careful not to insert the stick into the Kiss itself.

7. Use the floral tape to attach the floral stick at the base of the rose. Then continue to wind the floral tape diagonally down the floral stick.
