DIY Warpped Candy Stocking Stuffers


I've finished up this year's round of craft shows and finally found some time to post a few of the candy stocking stuffers that  I made for the Peterson Elementary School Holiday Shoppe.

I have sold out these items along with 25 decorated candy canes.  The show was sweet, I tell yah!

Check out the below to see some of the candy stocking stuffers.


Sport themed Kissies
I  have a lot of scraps of Chicago sport team fabric, so I cut out the logos and added a tag that said "It's Sweet To Be A ...(insert sport team name) Fan"   to a bag with kisses that had wrappers in the team colors. ( I am not affiliated with the Chicago BEARS and BULLS or the Green Bay Packer football teams.  These are hand made one of a kind items, using fabric scraps.)




















Team Dressed Up Peppermint Patties
Chicago has 2 Championship Teams.  The CUBS won the 2016 World Series and the BlackHawks won the 2015 Stanley Cup.  

To celebrate these champs, I made dressed up Pearson Peppermint Patties for each team.  

For the Blackhawks I used the logos from Blackhawks fabric scraps.  For the CUBS I saved logos from cardstock advertising from the Chicago Tribune newspaper. The tag said "It's Cool to Be A... (insert CUBS or BlackHawks) Fan. " I  punched out glitter paper cicles in the team colors added the logos on the top and the Blackhawks had a fabric strip near the tie and CUBS had blue and white ribbon near the tie.

Wrapped Hershey's Milk Chocolate Nugget Tins
I think wrapped Hershey's Milk Chocolate Nuggets are sweet.  And because I sold them, and did not eat them, they were also NO calorie for me - LOL.  

 I used cardstock, ribbon, and .... magic of course,  to wrap the nuggets below. Okay, the magic was Scotch clear tape... but I did sit a spell while wrapping them, so it counts, doesn't it?

 I put the nuggets into tin gift card boxes that I bought at Jo-Anne's.  The tin is a perfect fit for 9 wrapped nuggets and I placed the plastic clear cover over the chocolates to display the nuggets and hold them in.   For 2 of the tins, I covered the top to match some of the nuggets. 














More Dressed Up Peppermint Patties 
I had some cute stickers and I still had some bare Pearson Peppermint Patties.  I couldn't  let those patties go naked, so I made the below.



More Wrapped Hershey's Milk Chocolate Nuggets
Speaking of bare things, I had some naked nuggets (say that really fast) . I also played dress up with them. See some below. 

  











One Last Kiss In this Post
In one of the Hershey kisses bags, there were kisses with red striped wrappers.  This was perfect for the last stocking stuffer.  I used the Elf Kisses tag that I created a few years ago and bagged them.
