So the lovely Anilu accepted the challenge this week, and here is her amazing layout:
And in other crafty goodness, here is a little project completed in about 40 minutes with the help of two kiddos doing the toothpicks and gumdrops...
Start off with a box of toothpicks (broken in half), two tubs of red and green gumdrops, and a Styrofoam cone.
Start at the bottom and work your way up. I decided early on I'd do two rows of colors and then switch up. You can do whatever you like!
It may not look like it but my cone is 18 inches high. Of course, smaller cones would take less time and less candy.
They look really cool in sets, so we'll be doing more of these, for sure...
Ok, so doing that tree with the kids and yay on the blog challenge at ALl About Eve! I let everyone know at SDD! :D I will let others know on my blog, too! :D
