Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 1 wire hanger
• Curling ribbons in different colors
• Individually wrapped candy with the wrapper twisted at the ends.

1. Shape the wire hanger into a circle, leaving the hanger part intact.

2. Cut pieces of the curling ribbon into lengths of about 4 or 5 inches.

3. Grab a piece of wrapped candy and tie the ribbon around one end of the twisted wrapper and make it tight.

4. Tie the ribbon with the candy attached to the hanger tightly.

Tips & Warnings

• Try to use children's wire hangers because they're smaller and won't take as much candy to fill them.
• For a special gift to someone, take one dollar bills and squeeze them in the middle. Tie a piece of ribbon tightly around them and to the hanger at even intervals among the candy. It's quite a dramatic effect.
