LeeLee's Likes

     Last week I mentioned that I am going to post a blog once a week titled LeeLee's likes and I am going to feature the stuff I like.

     I like chocolate and I like crafting.  When I can combine the two together, I, really like it a lot.  I am going to show you how I made my cute give-away I had on my fb page earlier this week.

     First of all, you start with Hershey Kisses.  I had a couple of bags left over from Valentines Day.

     It is always a great idea to have a stash on hand, especially, when you can get them half off after the holiday you just celebrated is over.  This way, you, are always ready for your next big craft or for those moments when nothing will do but a little kiss here or there.

     Next you are going to unwrap all of those bad boys.

     See that wasn't too hard and you can reward yourself with a little bit of chocolate if you work yourself into a sweat.

     The next part is the fun part.  You are going to cut squares from the gold foil you have purchased at your local beauty supplier.  It is pictured above.  It is manufactured by Spilo. It is a lightweight foil that your very talented hair dressers use when they weave your hair.  I use it to wrap my kisses so they are golden.  Any kiss can be silver, but, it takes a special one to be golden.

     This is what the foil looks like when you have cut it into the squares.  Use your silver foil for your pattern.  My grandson was spending the night and he loves trains.  Hence, the train book in the background.  See the clear glass in the background?  I purchased it for one dollar at the Family Dollar.  Cut all of your foil into squares and wrap them around your kisses.

     You are now going to put your golden kisses in the clear glass.  Next, if you own a cricut vinyl cutting machine you are going to cut out a cute St. Patrick saying and some cute polka-dots.  Adhere them to your clear glass and viola you have a cute St. Patrick day gift for the golden people in your life.

     Remember, a chocolate kiss a day, keeps the moodies away!
