"In this clip I will teach you how to make Christmas candy wreaths. To make a candy wreath, you're going to want to take any candy you prefer, I prefer peppermints, the red and the green ones, and you're going to want to separate them, the red on one side and the green on the other. You are also going to want a ribbon for when you are finished, and I will show you. First you're going to want to move all the green ones on the bottom, or if you prefer red you can put the red on the bottom, into one giant circle, and I would say maybe double up the green because it is on the bottom, and it will make the wreath a little bit thicker and it will hold the red mints into place. Once you have all your green down, you're going to take a red, and place the red on top of the green, you don't need to do a double circle for the red, and make it into a circle on top of the green. As you do this, you are going to want to glue all the red on top of the green, and the red will hold the green together. Then you're going to want to apply some glitter, just to give it that extra holiday touch, and finally, take the ribbon, tie it in a bow, you might want to even out both sides of the bow, and glue the bow onto the peppermint candies. Hold for about 20 seconds. For those of you who do not want to take the time to glue each candy next to each other, step by step, you can always put it on a paper plate, glue the candies onto the plate rim, and then cut out the plate when you're done, and it will hold the candies, and will form something like this."
