Supplies:
- 60" x 8" Tulle or Chiffon - 60" is selvage by selvage end so if you're in the store, ask for 1/4 yard :-).
- Scissors
- Curling Ribbon - Two colors
- Candy!!!
Cut fabric to size, if needed. I had a bit of extra chiffon laying around so I folded multiple times so I only needed to cut across 6 inches or so.
Cut ribbon into 12 inch lengths. You'll need 4 lengths of ribbon for each section. I used two of each color.
Start double-tying ribbon about 1 foot away from the end of the fabric. While tying ribbon, try to keep the fabric rolled up a bit. This will create the pocket for the candy.
Insert candy. Tie ribbon around the other side. Curl ends with a scissors. Repeat until the necklace is the right length. I suggest not putting candy around the neck. It might melt!
Tie the ends.
Make some more! This would be a great project for fundraisers, gifts, prizes, etc. Might be fun to use school colors and hand out during spirit week?
