Christmas Craft Projects Using Hershey's Chocolate Kisses Candy

Chocolate and the holiday season go hand in hand. For this reason, it's no surprise that Hershey's Kisses come wrapped in seasonal red, green and silver foil in December. These festive Kisses are ideal for creating Kiss Christmas crafts that can adorn your home in the days and weeks coming up to Christmas. Does this Spark an idea?

  1. Kisses Christmas Tree

    • Use a few packages of red, green and silver-wrapped Hershey's Kisses to create a Christmas tree craft that you can eat later. Create a cone about six inches high from green tagboard by cutting a circle twelve inches in diameter, then removing a two inch wide circle from the center. Cut a line from the edge to the center, then roll the shape into a cone. Cover the cone in Kisses, pointed ends out, using a dot of craft glue on the bottoms or some office tack. Cover the cone mostly in green-wrapped kisses, but dot the tree with a few silver and red chocolates to look like ornaments.

    Mini Tree

    • Transform tiny green kisses into tiny, short and stout trees for presentation. Simply remove the paper tassels and cap the point of each kiss with a gold star sticker. Roll a small ball of brown plasticine clay to press to the bottom center of the chocolate. Press the "tree" onto a plate, clay side down, to form the tree's trunk. Fill an entire plate with these tiny trees and serve at your next Christmas party.

    Kisses Wreath

    • Create a Kisses wreath of green or silver Kisses, or using primarily one color with a few of the other peppering it. Purchase a craft foam wreath made of polystyrene, available where flower arranging supplies are sold. Spray paint it green or silver, then cover with kisses. Glue them flat sides-down to the polystyrene, as close to one another as possible. Cover the front and sides of the wreath, inside and outside of the circle, but don't glue any Kisses to the back; this way, you'll still be able to hang it.

    Kiss Bells

    • Turn silver-wrapped Kisses into tiny, edible Christmas tree ornaments to decorate during the pre-holiday season and then eat on Christmas day. Remove the paper streamers and tighten down the top of the foil with your fingers. Cut a four inch length of silver string and attach both its ends to the foil at the cone tip of the chocolate using tacky glue. For best results, dip the string into the glue and don't try to hang the "bells" until the glue is completely dry.
