Did you know February 15th is National Gumdrop Day? While everyone is recovering from Valentine’s Day, you can drop these little favors in their laps. Just don’t give me any black licorice ones, thank you very much!

Materials: oval paper mache boxes, glitter cardstock paper, pencil, scissors, glue, marker or pen, string, gumdrops

Step 1: Lay the box lid upside down on the backside of the glitter paper.
Step 2: Trace a gumdrop shape around the box.
Step 3: Cut out and glue to top of box.
Step 4: Fill box with gumdrops! Tie with a little bow and attach a “Happy Gumdrop Day!” tag.
