Easter Treats

About a month ago I stumbled across a candy making kit in Wal-Mart and thought that it looked fun, so I picked it up. I decided to make them today in between conference sessions. It was lots of fun! It came with quite a few molds and 4 colors of candy melts, so you got to design them and make them however you wanted. There was a tiny paint brush that I used for all the details, then poured the background color in, stuck in the sticks, put them in the fridge for a while and they were done. Don't be fooled though....the painting was time consuming and kind of hard since all the details were so small. But it was so fun! I think I want to make it a new tradition. This year, Chandler helped me out by napping while I did most of it, then licking the bowls and paint brush clean, but I'm thinking next year she could pick colors and stuff. Check out the final product....


The smaller ones...I made these for all my nieces. Closer pictures below.




These ones were quite a bit bigger. The white one was my favorite and the bigger ones were much easier to work with.

A little bouquet.

Pretty cute, don't you think? And only like $6. Can't beat that!
